Mysterious four-piece Tulipomania returns with Anamorphic, a broadly atmospheric adventure with singer Tom Murray’s airy but unsettling voice guiding us through what feels like an all night bender through the band’s hometown of Bristol, PA, or perhaps a dazed and confused drive through Seattle in the early 90’s. Swirling guitars, aggressive soundscapes and tinges of shoe-gaze will assail your ears on “Same Old Song,” “No Let Up” and “Take a Ride,” and taunt you into resistance. Fans of My Bloody Valentine and the ilk should definitely enjoy. –Carrie Alison
