Beschrijving | : Based in a post-industrial city in northeast France, Double Nelson play a unique brand of electronic avant-rock, blending live instruments with samples, loops and found sounds. Fixtures in the European underground, Double Nelson have recorded a couple of well-received albums, scored a sci-fi film, and toured extensively, opening for Boredoms, Mecca Normal, Alex Chilton, and Mudhoney. Most recently they finished a number of dates supporting Stereolab. The music is hard to describe; try to imagine Boris Plank, Pram, and Tom Waits engrossed in a game of Pacman. Tim Gane of Stereolab described them as "A shuddering dislocation of geiger counter and the gurgling pulse of jelly. Origin unknown. "
