That was true for El Ten Eleven's Kristian Dunn. When a beloved family member passed, Dunn found his own reflections on life emerging in the music he composed. Those expressions led to the creation of Tautology - a sonic meditation on the arc of human life, composed in three parts. \n\nOver the course of three discs, Tautology is, in Dunn's words, \"a representation of life from the teenage years, through middle-age, until the end of life.\" The sounds on the album echo Dunn's own experiences, veering from aggressive metallic riffs to blissful ambient soundscapes. And while there are shared melodies and harmonies through all three records, each one has it's own distinct qualities: Tautology I, which represents adolescence, is angsty, aggressive and occasionally depressive; Tautology II is head-noddy and mid-tempo, and represents middle age; while Tautology III, quiet and ambient, represents one's golden years. \n\nThe music on the first disc, Tautology I, has a heavier sound that might surprise longtime El Ten Eleven fans. \"I wanted to represent what my teenage years were like, when I was full of testosterone and depression, \" says Dunn. \"When you're a teenager everything feels so grandiose and dramatic.\" The album's second movement, Tautology II, reflects Dunn's current state. \"I'm middle-aged now, and this is the happiest I've ever been. I think that comes across in the music. This record is the one that sounds the most like the El Ten Eleven people are used to.\" For the final chapter, Tautology III, Dunn composed a transcendent set of ethereal music inspired partly by the loss of a dear family member. \"I don't know what it's like to be elderly. But my grandmother-in-law Frances McMaster was a very inspiring person. She died recently, and I was thinking about her a lot. She was really smart. She lived into her early nineties and she wrote her fourth book when she was eighty-eight. I'd like to be like her if I make it to that age.\"\n\nTautology is not a typical rock album, and El Ten Eleven are not a typical rock band. For seventeen years the instrumental duo of Dunn (bass\/guitar) and Tim Fogarty (drums) have flourished outside the accepted norms of rock orthodoxy, releasing eight full length albums and four EPs, and performing over 750 live shows. Utilizing inventive arrangements and a masterful use of looping, El Ten Eleven create a sound much bigger than the sum of it's parts. Most first-timers to an El Ten Eleven show are stunned that the band is a duo. It's a refreshing sight and a palette whose boundaries the band have explored for unexpected additions to their sound. Tautology finds Dunn and Fogarty pushing this sound into new territory, experimenting with a range of textures not heard on previous El Ten Eleven releases. \n\nJoyful Noise Recordings will digitally release each of Tautology's three discs, individually and in sequential order, beginning May 1st, with a physical 3xLP release on September 18, 2020. Dunn explains there's no right or wrong way to listen to Tautology, suggesting that a deep dive into the full project will yield rewards. \"I think someone could listen to any one of the discs by themselves and have a really great experience-even if they didn't know about the others. But if they do want to go deeper, I think there will be a lot of interesting stuff to discover. It works symbolically and it all connects.

The self-released LP received only modest attention initially, but the project would go on to defy all expectations, gradually attracting a significant cult audience of loyal fans. But defying expectations is standard operating procedure for El Ten Eleven. Seriously, who would expect two instrumentalists to create such a large and complex sound? Thanks to inventive arrangements and a masterful use of looping, Dunn (bass\/guitar) and Fogarty (drums) developed a pulsating sound full of atmospheric intensity. They've also crafted an incredibly durable career, and the duo credit the ongoing interest in their debut album as the foundation for that success. The music of El Ten Eleven has been embraced by fans of many genres - from math rock, to jazz, to lo-fi hip-hop. The duo's sound is sharply evocative in mood and feeling, yet simultaneously abstract and meditative. The combination of these qualities has stimulated the imagination of the group's fans, and gives space for listeners to assign their own value and meaning to the sounds. \"I'm aiming for emotional impact when I come up with songs,\" Dunn explained. \"Sometimes it's technically interesting but it doesn't make me feel anything.

That was true for El Ten Eleven's Kristian Dunn. When a beloved family member passed, Dunn found his own reflections on life emerging in the music he composed. Those expressions led to the creation of Tautology - a sonic meditation on the arc of human life, composed in three parts. Over the course of three discs, Tautology is, in Dunn's words, \"a representation of life from the teenage years, through middle-age, until the end of life.\" The sounds on the album echo Dunn's own experiences, veering from aggressive metallic riffs to blissful ambient soundscapes. And while there are shared melodies and harmonies through all three records, each one has it's own distinct qualities: Tautology I, which represents adolescence, is angsty, aggressive and occasionally depressive; Tautology II is head-noddy and mid-tempo, and represents middle age; while Tautology III, quiet and ambient, represents one's golden years. The music on the first disc, Tautology I, has a heavier sound that might surprise longtime El Ten Eleven fans. \"I wanted to represent what my teenage years were like, when I was full of testosterone and depression, \" says Dunn. \"When you're a teenager everything feels so grandiose and dramatic.\" The album's second movement, Tautology II, reflects Dunn's current state. \"I'm middle-aged now, and this is the happiest I've ever been. I think that comes across in the music. This record is the one that sounds the most like the El Ten Eleven people are used to.\" For the final chapter, Tautology III, Dunn composed a transcendent set of ethereal music inspired partly by the loss of a dear family member. \"I don't know what it's like to be elderly. But my grandmother-in-law Frances McMaster was a very inspiring person. She died recently, and I was thinking about her a lot. She was really smart. She lived into her early nineties and she wrote her fourth book when she was eighty-eight. I'd like to be like her if I make it to that age.\"Tautology is not a typical rock album, and El Ten Eleven are not a typical rock band. For seventeen years the instrumental duo of Dunn (bass\/guitar) and Tim Fogarty (drums) have flourished outside the accepted norms of rock orthodoxy, releasing eight full length albums and four EPs, and performing over 750 live shows. Utilizing inventive arrangements and a masterful use of looping, El Ten Eleven create a sound much bigger than the sum of it's parts. Most first-timers to an El Ten Eleven show are stunned that the band is a duo. It's a refreshing sight and a palette whose boundaries the band have explored for unexpected additions to their sound. Tautology finds Dunn and Fogarty pushing this sound into new territory, experimenting with a range of textures not heard on previous El Ten Eleven releases. Joyful Noise Recordings will digitally release each of Tautology's three discs, individually and in sequential order, beginning May 1st, with a physical 3xLP release on September 18, 2020. Dunn explains there's no right or wrong way to listen to Tautology, suggesting that a deep dive into the full project will yield rewards. \"I think someone could listen to any one of the discs by themselves and have a really great experience-even if they didn't know about the others. But if they do want to go deeper, I think there will be a lot of interesting stuff to discover. It works symbolically and it all connects. I think this is the best record we've ever done.\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEntropy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWith Report\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJejune\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMoral Dynamite\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDivision\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLassitude\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBesotted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShimmer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNocturne 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Silent Bell That Rings 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHalf Mast 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQueen's Gambit 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGorwing Shorter 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFarrago 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaducity 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou Are a Piece of Me, You Are a Piece of Her 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAubade 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShimmered 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLet's All Go Out Like Francis 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSenescent 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll of This Bliss Doesn't Come Without a Price\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Alliance - BT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46984400077021,"sku":"753936906136","price":25.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/3840069-2582788.jpg?v=1762927284"},{"product_id":"el-ten-eleven-new-years-eve","title":"El Ten Eleven- New Year's Eve (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDefying expectations is standard operating procedure for El Ten Eleven.
