Description
Teenage Fanclub have announced news of their tenth studio album, Endless Arcade. Even if we weren’t living through extraordinarily troubling times, there is nothing quite like a Teenage Fanclub album to assuage the mind, body and soul, and to reaffirm that all is not lost in this world.

Endless Arcade follows the band’s ninth album “Here”, released in 2016 to universal acclaim and notably their first Top 10 album since 1997; a mark of how much they’re treasured. The new record is quintessential TFC: melodies are equal parts heart-warming and heart-aching; guitars chime and distort; keyboard lines mesh and spiral; harmony-coated choruses burst out like sun on a stormy day.

Tracklist
1. Home
2. Endless Arcade
3. Warm Embrace
4. Everything Is Falling Apart
5. The Sun Won’t Shine On Me
6. Come With Me
7. In Our Dreams
8. I’m More Inclined
9. Back In The Day
10. The Future
11. Living With You
12. Silent Song

Press on! The first music from the post-Gerard Love version of Teenage Fanclub is this lovely song by Raymond McGinley, which is perhaps ironically entitled "Everything Is Falling Apart":

It might not be clear from the video above, but Dave McGowan has moved over to bass, while Euro Childs has joined the group as Gerry's replacement, but taking over from Dave on keyboards. Childs is (was?) the leader of Gorky's Zygotic Mynci, and is a good friend of Norman Blake's who has worked with him on other projects in the past. Expect songwriting contributions which fit the Fannies' sound.

Endless Arcade has now been pencilled in for March 5, 2021. Full details can be found in the first post. There will be a domestic release on the Merge label, so we can expect the USA pre-order link to become active soon.

Listen to a single edit of the album's beautiful opening track, "Home":

Endless Arcade is out today. Here's WAN more sample, the full-length version of "Home" as it appears on the album, complete with Raymond's extended four-minute guitar solo that carries the song off into the sunset:
