Beacons Of Ancestorship

Their first new record in over five years. Tortoise have been expanding the definition of rock music for over fifteen years. "Beacons" gives nods to techno, punk, electro, lo-fi noise, cut up beats, heavily processed synths, and mournful, elegiac dirges. CD version is presented in a 4-panel mini-LP style jacket. LP is pressed on HQ 180-gram virgin vinyl and is presented in an old-style top-on gatefold jacket with artworked inner sleeve and MP3 download coupon.
