An aptly named album, Teleman are a great little indie band from London who have supported Suede and Franz Ferdinand when playing on tour. Brilliant Sanity, their second album is a straight-up, eleven track delight, packed with very well thought out thrust.
Brilliant Sanity quite often bundles in feelings of binary opposition, for example the title track discusses the metaphor of losing everything in a house fire. The character discusses feeling bulletproof, while the the eerie production and driving guitar conversely reassures the listener.
Standout track Superglue similarly builds up momentum, this time with a staccato verses and then a smoothed-out chorus. There's something bang-on fantastic about Cockney indie with bristle, vigour and insight.
