Novella's formation was the result of an instant spark Inchguitarist Hollie Warren, guitarist Sophy Hollington, and bassist Suki Sou met through mutual friends in Brighton in 2010, where they quickly realized that they shared a common love for 60s counterculture and bands like Black Sabbath, the Brian Jonestown Massacre, and Pale Saints. The addition of drummer Iain Laws in 2011 and keyboardist Isabel Spurgeon in 2014 solidified the group into a propulsive engine, capable of welding woozy, cosmic psychedelia to sustained squalls of flanged-out, far-out dream pop. Novella's debut album, Land, is a controlled blast of mainlined electricity, a tempest of relentless groove and crystalline vocals that is at once the vicious edge and the calm eye of the storm.
As Tele Novella, Chronis (who performs in the beloved and rekindled indie pop band Voxtrot) and Ribbons (who previously performed in the long-running InchVictorian punkInch project Agent Ribbons) have spent their past two albums creating InchMedieval outsider countryInch on 2016's House Of Souls and 2021's Merlynn Belle. Poet's Tooth - the band's second album for Kill Rock Stars - steers the duo's whimsical western-tinted quality into fascinating new directions cinematic-pop balladry on the autoharp-tinged opener InchYoung & Free,Inch gently clip-clopping Americana-folk on InchHard-Hearted Way,Inch and bass-driven funk on the wry InchEggs In One Basket.Inch With help from producer Danny Reisch, Tele Novella have crafted their most genre-rich, poetic, and sincere album yet.A1.
