Rating: - Euphoric instrumental wall of sound
Instrumental
10 min songs
all slow builders
constant drone / wall of noise / absolutely not one break (even between songs)
Very uplifting
lots of layers to pick out on multiple listens
extremely trancey and soothing yet thumping at the same time.
similar in my collection to Spiritualised live and My Bloody Valentine (but am sure there are better examples of similarities).
Buy if you like eclectic, electric, lack of vocals, long building songs.

"Street Horrrsing" was a great record, but Tarot Sport is a cut above. Perhaps surprisingly, it's also a welcoming album--alongside such gems as Towers of Asia's "Something Something", this is definitely a high point of 2009.

Now that's what I call totally mindblowing!
How would you describe Tarot Sport? A mutant hybrid of Tangerine Dream and God Speed You Black Emperor is as close as I could get!
Pulsing, building bubbling psychadelic synths, martial drums, throbbing, pulsing, growing songs that deliver.
The production by Andy Weatherall is nothing short of perfect.

This without a shadow of doubt was one of the best albums of 2009.
If you like constant relentless noise done in an uplifting way then buy it now!!
A superb soundtrack for motorway driving or whilst playing a computer game.
I can't imagine a better soundtrack for snow boarding.
This is a future classic...the best way that dance music has evolved. I'm not a raver...prefering to listen and absorb rather than dance and sweat.
As for the one bad review referring to Suicide as where it started...rubbish, i'd go back further to 'Krautrock'...everyone has there influences. That reviewer needs dragging and screaming into this millenium. To conclude, Tarot Sport is absolutely a new twist for a new generation. I'd recommend their first offering Good Horrsing

I'm a firm believer that all timeless records have one elusive, yet key ingredient, that is a kind of pure form of intention. A motivation that is very clear but is also completely disregarding of everyone else. It's important to know that if there were no other albums made in 2009, then this album would still sound just the same and brilliantly the lads who made it would be oblivious to that fact. The cherry on that cake is that this album is the aural equivalent of having your hand nailed to a chair by a shoe but in a good way. A really good way. A way that you wouldn't change.
Honestly.
