“The Los Angeles fivesome indeed puree a slew of equatorial guitar sounds
and rhythms and textures, which combined, bridge the gap
between Animal Collective and Foreign Born.” –
SPIN
“A well-balanced blend of electronic, rock, and global instrumentation, and easily
digestible dance-friendly rhythms” – The AV Club
“The quintet hits pop and calypso flavors along the way, finding itself slotted
alongside Vampire Weekend and Animal Collective…Nicely done”
– Under The Radar
Entertainment Weekly has premiered White Arrows’ latest single “We Can’t Ever Die” from the band’s sophomore album In Bardo due September 16 on Votiv. The single is also streaming on SoundCloud and available to download via iTunes. Last month, The AV Club premiered “I Want A Taste” which is also streaming at SoundCloud and available to purchase at iTunes. The band also released a visual for “I Want A Taste,” which is available to share via YouTube. Fans can click here for a behind the scenes look at the recording process for In Bardo.
Bardo is defined as a transitional state of being, the phase of existence between death and rebirth. It marks the end of one thing and the beginning of another. It represents an evolution, which is why the title of White Arrows’ second album, In Bardo, is so appropriate. The Los Angeles indie rock band found themselves in a new plane of being after touring extensively since their inception, hitting the road with bands such as Cults, White Denim, The Naked and Famous, and performing at festivals like Coachella and Sasquatch. The band finally grounded themselves enough to create a cohesive work that reflected the musicians’ present mindset. Songs like “Leave It Alone” represent the musicians’ current mindset and inspirations. For White Arrows, In Bardo is the transition. It marks the end of one thing and the beginning of another.
White Arrows is currently on tour with The Neighbourhood on the El Tour Blanco. In addition to touring with The Neighbourhood, White Arrows also has hometown headlining show coming up later this month at The Troubadour. All upcoming shows are listed below.
