30/11/2008: Volcanic Tongue review of Tranko release.

Many thanks to Volcanic Tongue who have given the Tranko cd the following review"Hand-numbered edition of 50 copies from this new Japanese underground group with a previous single on The Great Pop Supplement. The sound is based around hand-percussion, ethnic instruments, sitar and chants and they have a great, light-fluffy communal psych feel that balances the ritual work of Ghost with east-Asian jags, some of the more ethnic-focussed Krautrock - Embryo et al - and even some Moondog-esque minimalism".

Nice one !!
