The much hyped about Telepathe earlier this month released their latest single "Devils Trident", which definitely carries the club vibe from their Chrome's On It EP, but with a more ruminative feel, instilled by the spoken word lyrics. Another synth piece melodramatically reflecting on love and loss. With such lyrics as "Tears in my hand, Tears in my hand" being repeated, the song seems to dance on the border between a ballad of self pity and a rallying cry for the speaker ("I won't go, I won't go"). Yet the lyrics are not the highlight of the song, merely a facet of Telepathe's well produced sound. With the help of TV On The Radio's guitarist and keyboardist, David Sitek, Telepathe does a great job of mixing at least three distinct vocal tracks with glittery keyboards and a heavy layer of synth produced rhythms that seem to grow piece by piece as the song progresses. Also included on the single is the b-side, "Lights Go Down".
