The Arcs are putting out their first album in eight years at the top of 2023; it’s called “Electrophonic Chronic”. Dan Auerbach and company recorded this album with Richard Swift before his passing in 2018.
The Dan Auerbach-led band The Arcs are returning with new music since they first debuted in 2015 with their album “Yours, Dreamily. Electrophonic Chronic” boasts 12 new songs from the band that were recorded with bandmate Richard Swift before he passed away in 2018. According to a post by Brooklyn Vegan, Auerbach commented on his friends passing and the album saying “It’s a way for us to say goodbye to him, by revisiting him playing and laughing, singing”.
It was chosen as the opener because one of the first things you hear is Richard Swift on drums, and the record is an homage to their great friend.”
There are currently three singles released for this album which also happen to be the first three songs of the tracklist. “Keep On Dreamin’”, “Eyez”, and “Heaven Is A Place” all have a loose feeling with a psychedelic tint to them to match the neon colors of the artwork.
Release Date: January 27th on Easy Eye Sound
