“For Telehealth, the answer to these questions aren’t yes or no, but rather, an untapped gap in the music market waiting for a band visionary and unhinged enough to bet on the spread. Green World Image, Telehealth’s sophomore LP and its IPO with angel investors Sub Pop, is a vertically-integrated artwork for the post-grunge, post-flannel Seattleite, and consumers around the globe who are also ready to financialize their own passion for music.
Trauma-informed, results-driven, and eminently danceable, the weirdo punk record is inspired by Attitude’s tenure as a former architect in a Climate Pledged™ city that has perfected the art of “Green World” architecture with its network of efficiently zoned 5-over-1s. Telehealth’s PNW post-punk creates similar architectural spaces, where the gleaming, futuristic, tech-industrial rhythms and synths of Bezos-era Seattle commingle with the raw, independent, underground sound the city lovingly preserves for cultural texture and marketing purposes. The outcome? Think XTC, REM, and YMO with a stronger focus on ROI. Imagine The B-52s, but B2B. Envision a bigger-brained Brainiac, a transhuman Gary Numan, or a terminally online Pylon. Finally, a band with assets diverse enough to play in your basement or the Amazon Spheres.” –subpop
