Kansas-based tape imprint
Beer On The Rug digitally dropped Midnight Television's self-titled debut this morning, and though the label folks admit that they don't know much about the artist except for the fact that he's hailing from Texas, it's more than obvious that there was no way of not putting this out anyway. The EP ends after a mere ten minutes, but the seven sonic snippets are some very intriguing pieces of mellow, heavily 80s-infused hypnagogia, and with titles such as
Channel Surfing or
Commercial Dreams it indeed is an absolutely appropriate soundtrack for lonely late night zapping excursions.
