Acid King announce new album ‘Beyond Vision’
ACID KING have announced a new album!
Titled Beyond Vision, the upcoming album from the heavy rock band is the long-awaited follow-up to 2015’s Middle of Nowhere, Center of Everywhere, and is scheduled to be released in March this year, via Blues Funeral Recordings.
The upcoming album was recorded to two-inch tape courtesy of Dead & Company at Sharkbite Studios in Oakland, California. Band founder and guitarist/vocalist Lori S. worked hand in hand with BLACK COBRA guitarist/vocalist Jason Landrian, with the pair sharing writing and production credits.
Speaking about the change in their sound and the concept behind the new album, guitarist/vocalist Lori S. says, “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. 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.”
Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Destination Psych/Beyond Vision. The new music video was first premiered via Revolver.
