Release Notes:

te' was formed in January 2004 by Kono in Tokyo, Japan. As soon as they began
playing live shows, they gained rave reviews and much praise from critics and
fans alike for their inspirational performances. Their demo CD sold out
instantly. Their first single was then released through Zankyo Records(Japan).
Despite lack of promotion, and being a virtually unknown instrumental band,
their first single became extraordinarily popular and received critical acclaim.
The single reached number one on the Disk Union (Japan) charts. Having observed
the success of te', Tower Records Japan offered to assist in promoting the band.
A special te' listening section was featured in Tower Record stores throughout
Japan. By doing so, they won the hearts of the Tower Records staff, and their
single sold almost more than any instrumental band in the past. The single is
currently still available in stores. Magazines, CR-J (which produces the College
Chart in Japan), and various other media add to the hype. Offers from overseas
began to roll in.
te''s highly anticipated debut full length album was released in Japan in
September 2005, and immediately charted at number ten on the Tower Record Japan
charts ahead of many major popular artists. Their album sales continued to grow
as they embarked on a tour of Japan. Recently, te' played shows with Swiss band
Koch Schuetz Studer and Coptic Light from New York. Koch Schuetz Studer even
invited the band to support them on a tour of Switzerland. Word about te' is
fast spreading across the seas, with foreign magazines such as Bounce, HMV, VICE
and so on featuring the band in their articles.
More and more fans are flocking to see te' perform live. With an effects-infused
bass, explosive guitars, and pounding drums at its core, te' is a world-class
instrumental band from Japan.
te' consists of 2 guitarists, a bassist and a drummer. Their music is similar to
bands such as Mogwai, Appleseed Cast, Tristeza, Slint, Godspeed You Black
Emperor and Mono.
