TRISTEZA:  Paisajes CD / Vinyl / Digital Sanity Muffin / Darla / Better Looking in stores Nov. 30, 2010 ______________________ Tristeza's new full-length, Paisajes, is an album of sound, color and textures brought to height by 13 years of perseverance & creative inventiveness.  Sounds turn and congeal like a vintage kaleidoscope, morphing shapes & sounds from a nostalgic culmination of yesteryears and their own prospective harmony.  Each twist loosens patterns of trancelike interlacing guitars akin to Spacemen 3, Felt or late period Talk Talk & early Durutti Column.  Bass and rhythmic patterns influenced by Nigerian Afro Funk, Latin Cumbia & 60's / 70's German Kraut grooves.  Sonically and creatively one of the most refreshing and therapeutic albums of recent years, Tristeza lay out a scenic landscape (paisajes) and politely invite us all to get lost inside... Paisajes is being released on Tristeza's own imprint:  Sanity Muffin via Darla distribution.  Better Looking Records is handling the digital version. The album was recorded by Tim Green / Louder Studios (who produced Tristeza's classic Spine & Sensory).  FREE MP3 "Newbury" http://media.betterlookingrecords.com.s3.amazonaws.com/audio/tristeza-newbury.mp3 PRESS PAGE (stream the entire album, read bio, grab press photos and cover art!) http://soundcloud.com/sensor-1/sets/tristeza-paisajes/s-7Psy1 CD / VINYL pre-order link: http://darla.com/index.php?fuseaction=item_cat.ecom_superitem_detail&item_cat_id=38462 Band contact:  tristez@hotmail.com http://www.trstz.com/ http://www.myspace.com/tristeza tristeza ~ facebook http://www.twitter.com/trstz http://www.youtube.com/user/tttristeza Label contact: sanitymuffin@gmail.com http://www.sanitymuffin.com/ http://www.betterlookingrecords.com/ http://www.darla.com/
