专辑简介

"Reinventing the wall of sound as electric blanket, this Northern California band takes My Bloody Valentine for a Ride, wrapping lyrical streams of self-consciousness in pillowy layers of guitar feedback and keyboard effects." -- Gear Magazine "Features grand, distortion-drenched `odds and ends' (think the Jesus & Mary Chain or My Bloody Valentine) ... Should you find yourself having trouble making out some of the lyrics, front man Tim Jacobson suggests making up your own." -- San Francisco Chronicle "A glorious blur of post-shoegazer haze." -- Shredding Paper
　　
　　Comprised of three like-minded gentlemen out to create songs culled from years of self-induced isolation, sexual regret, and audio experimentation, Electro Group teamed up with local Sacramento imprint Omnibus Records to issue their 2001 debut, A New Pacifica. Its tracks surfaced on more than a few taste-making college and community radio stations, and even made it to the playlist of legendary BBC DJ John Peel. A slew of compilation appearances and side projects followed: the group recorded a series of split 7"s, teamed up with Pavement co-founder Gary Young for a cover of Sonic Youth's "100%," and bassist Ian Hernandez formed Holy Smokes with Pinback's Rob Crow and Hella's Zach Hill. Live appearances with Sleater-Kinney, Quasi, and Swords Project followed, as well as their next studio venture, Ummo. With their second proper full-length, Good Technology, the members of Electro Group had to destroy their conceptions of music and modern life in general, reconstructing them from square one. While A New Pacifica explored a utopian society in the aftermath of California falling into the sea, and Ummo asked if we are alone in the universe, Good Technology finds Electro Group in a deconstructionalist mindset. It's a rapidly changing world we live in, and the futuristic guitar-driven fuzz-pop of Good Technology provides an ideal soundtrack for it.
