The Arcs have previously shared singles, ‘Eyez‘, ‘Keep On Dreamin” and ‘Heaven Is A Place’ from the new record, to universal excitement from NPR Music, Mojo, Rolling Stone, Uncut, Record Collector, Pitchfork and many more. Guitar World has celebrated the early singles for their “beguiling, eccentric and catchy” nature, while Brooklyn Vegan praised the “dreamy, groovy” arrangements within. Mojo have published a 4* review for the album, in which they say “elements of deep soul and space-age pop combine to create a retro-futuristic vibe, songs sounding instantly familiar but slightly fried, as if beamed in from other worlds”.
Electrophonic Chronic takes its inspiration from the band’s mutual obsession with recording and crate-digging, notably for vintage soul, old school garage and the space age pop of the 1960s. The collection follows The Arcs’ 2015 debut Yours, Dreamily, and features the band’s full original line-up of Dan Auerbach, Leon Michels, Nick Movshon, Homer Steinweiss and Richard Swift.
