Regions is the duo's third album since their inception, and it has already been described as \"Afro-Krautrock\" and \"Teutonic High Life.\" It is possible to detect the influence of Jean Bosco Mwende or King Sunny Ade's guitars, along with the polyrhythmic ensemble force of Fela Kuti's Africa 70 and T-Funk-period Talking Heads. Sometime-Radiohead-collaborator John Matthias applies vocals to five tracks, coming on like an opiated James Brown channeling Damo Suzuki. For fans of Can, Fela Kuti, Talking Heads and Neu!.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Nairobi\/Koln \u003cbr\u003e1.2 So Much Water Close to Home \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Intro, Airborne, Travelling \u003cbr\u003e1.4 We Do Not \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Offices at Night \u003cbr\u003e1.6 Floating Home \u003cbr\u003e1.7 The Letting Go \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Herr Ya Ya \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Schwitters in Lakeland \u003cbr\u003e1.10 Worlds Ahead \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Ubu Goes to Town\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Ellis Island Sound","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42765992165447,"sku":"27353677","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2976\/0132\/files\/2538013.jpg?v=1778529407","url":"https:\/\/tower.com\/products\/ellis-island-sound-regions-compact-discs","provider":"Tower Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
