‘The Wages Of Fear’ is the name of Tellison’s second full-length album. It is also the name of a French film from 1953 directed by Henri-Georges Clouzot in which a group of desperate men trapped in a dead-end South American town are hired by a manipulative and dishonest oil company to complete a near suicidal task in the vain hope of earning their passage out of the situation they find themselves in, a situation full of horror because it presents no opportunities and no chance of redemption. Front man Stephen Davidson explains; ‘A lot of the record lyrically is about what it felt like to be in TELLISON after "Contact! Contact!"(the debut album) came out. There was a massive sense of coming so close to something only to brush it and fall short. I took a trip to New York (finally) and thought a lot about what I wanted the new record to be like or even how we were going to make a new record.’
