Acid King - New Album Announcement
On March 24th, San Francisco-based Acid King will put out a new studio record dubbed Beyond Vision. The 7-song, 43-plus-minute collection was recorded to two-inch tape courtesy of Dead & Company at Sharkbite Studios in Oakland, California. Recorded by longtime producer Billy Anderson. Below you can also give a spin to the title track, which serves as a first preview of the upcoming new music output.
On the new direction, frontwoman Lori S. explains: "The band was never really that psychedelic, but this is definitely more trippy because we’ve got keyboards and synthesizers. That’s something we’ve never had before on Acid King records. The songs really have no beginning or end - they all just flow into each other. It’s meant to be listened to as one piece. The whole point was to have the listener feel like they’re on a journey. If you put headphones on, it’ll take you to whatever places you’d like to go to."
About the concept of Beyond Vision, she adds: "The record is based on the journey of life. Jason [Landrian] and I were having these heavy pandemic conversations at the practice space for two years, talking about all the stuff you go through being in bands, touring, your relationships in life, all that stuff. You think this trip is supposed to go one way, but it goes in very different ways that you can never imagine."
