Artist History Formed in the summer of 2002 by Blake Fleming (ex-Laddio Bolocko, the Mars Volta), Marcus DeGrazia (ex-Laddio Bolocko), and German singer Silke, ETTM sought to take the best inspiration and instrumentation from the more creative bands of the late 60s such as Love, the Pretty Things, and the Doors, and update it for the new millennium. Adding guitarist James Wilk (ex-the Imaginary Numbers) later that year, the band began touring the NYC club scene. Creating instant happenings at their performances with the inclusion of ancillary members’ Noah Klersfeld’s live video light show and choreographer Erin Ellen’s modern-freak out dancing, ETTM quickly established itself as one of downtown New York’s hottest new bands.

Press Reviews The Village Voice says: Electric Turn To Me is a sexy and songful psych-goth-pop outfit, featuring ex-members of St. Louis post-rock/metal-noise juggernauts the Dazzling Killmen and the sadly missed, deconstructo acid-casualty-rockers Laddio Bolocko. ETTM’s swirling globs of sound reminds me of the colorful and ornate monsters from classic Japanese kids' shows where the costumes were trippy and futuristic, but slightly disconcerting —a nice pollination of old-Siouxsie, early–Christian Death, circus-y keyb noodling such as Pram or the Doors, mixed with Pretty Things–type lushness.
