Philadelphia 4-piece Arc In Round reflect a sonic sensibility garnered from endless hours of studio tracking, tweaking and sonic experimentation. They spin out carefully crafted dark pop -- taut yet spacey, noisy yet melodic. Arc In Round is the project of producer/engineer Jeff Zeigler, co-songwriter Mikele Edwards, bassist Ian Fraser and drummer Matt Ricchini. Formed in 2009, the band pull from the layered-dissonance and experimentation of Disco Inferno and This Heat, Motorik rhythms of Krautrock pioneers Neu and Can, and the more obvious sonic reference points of My Bloody Valentine, Broadcast and the Swirlies. Live, the band takes pains to bring their layered sound out of the studio and onto the stage for an immersive, crisply executed show. The LP boasts guest appearances by members of Kurt Vile and the Violators and Pattern is Movement and will be packed with bonus content including remixes by A Sunny Day in Glasgow, Our Brother the Native, Ape School, Benoit Pioulard and more.
