4.0 out of 5 stars
Post-punk power pop? (whatever that is),

This review is from: Parallel Seismic Conspiracies (MP3 Download)
As we prepare for the 2011 release of a 2nd full-length Telekinesis "album," reportedly titled 12 Desperate Straight Lines, let's go back and enjoy their/his most recent release, 2010's 'P.S.C.' EP. Made up of five quick-tempo songs that just fly by - the whole EP is only ten minutes long, with the longest song clocking in at 2:53 - Parallel Seismic Conspiracies is a nice, fun little diversion. Telekinesis leader Mike Lerner shows strong "classic indie" influences such as GBV and Big Star throughout this set, but the songs still achieve enough of a unique character to stand on their own. Part of it is Lerner's winning vocal style, a bit like a more confident and together Conor Oberst, as illustrated on a song like on "Calling All Doctors," which also has a real catchy guitar & bass thru-line. As for the "post-punk" element, check out "The Drawback," P.S.C's final tune, which crackles with the kind of energy that early Who songs had.
