It\u2019s taken Michael Benjamin Lerner, now a wizened, grizzled 26-year-old, four years to come to terms with this and understand what responsibilities it does and does not entail, although one would not, from listening to its\/his previous two albums, 2009\u2019s self-titled debut and 2011\u2019s 12 Desperate Straight Lines, detect any hint of confusion or self-doubt, aside from the songs that were directly about confusion or self-doubt. His third album, Dormarion, is, then, in ways both practical and profound, the sound of a man figuring out exactly who he is. Also, it\u2019s a total fucking hoot.<br \/>\nLerner wrote the 12 songs that comprise Dormarion in early 2012\u2014half at his home in West Seattle and half at his family\u2019s house in the San Juan Islands\u2014with the original intention of recording the album completely on his own. Instead, he road-tripped over the summer and made the record in two weeks with Spoon drummer Jim Eno in his Austin, TX studio, Public Hi-Fi. On Dormarion Lane, to be specific. \u201cIt\u2019s a beautiful-sounding word, and if you Google it, nothing but this one tiny street comes up,\u201d says Lerner, although this is obviously about to change. \u201cNo origin, no description. I can\u2019t tell you what the word means. It\u2019s like something from Lost.\u201d<br \/>\nSo there\u2019s two drummers, and no one else, collaborating shoulder-to-shoulder on a musically adventurous album containing two centerpiece songs on which there are no drums whatsoever. The breakthrough, musically and otherwise, came with the eighth song written for the record, \u201cGhosts and Creatures,\u201d a keyboard-driven, spacey, and darn near Goth turn that marks a conscious departure from his guitar-bass-drums power-pop racket. \u201cThat was the most unlike-me song I\u2019d ever written.\u201d<br \/>\nWhen you see Telekinesis perform this year, Lerner will be backed by Erik Walters of The Globes on guitar, Say Hi\u2019s Eric Elbogen on bass, and Rebecca Cole of Wild Flag and The Minders on keyboards.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #13260d;font-family: arial\"><span style=\"color: #13260d;font-family: arial\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mergerecords.com\/store\/store_detail.php?catalog_id=927\">Website<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s Telekinesis Kyle!&#8221; Enjoy this great song with a humorous video.
