This century, albums such as \u201cShadows\u201d and \u201cHere\u201d have documented a more relaxed, less \u2018teenage\u2019 Fanclub, reflecting the band\u2019s stage in life and state of mind, which\u00a0<em>Endless Arcade<\/em>\u00a0slots perfectly alongside. The album walks a beautifully poised line between melancholic and uplifting, infused with simple truths. The importance of home, community and hope is entwined with more bittersweet, sometimes darker thoughts &#8211; insecurity, anxiety, loss.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think of an endless arcade as a city that you can wander through, with a sense of mystery, an imaginary one that goes on forever\u2026\u201d says Raymond McGinley, one half of the band\u2019s songwriters for this album alongside Norman Blake. \u201cWhen it came to choosing an album title, it seemed to have something for this collection of songs.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TENTH STUDIO ALBUM: \u2018ENDLESS ARCADE\u2019 OUT 30 APRIL VIA THEIR OWN LABEL, PeMa UK TOUR DATES IN 2021\/22 &nbsp; &nbsp; With their new album\u00a0Endless Arcade\u00a0due for release 30th April, and having previously shared videos for the tracks\u00a0&#8216;Home&#8217;\u00a0and\u00a0&#8216;I&#8217;m More Inclined&#8217;,\u00a0TEENAGE FANCLUB\u00a0today share another new track, \u201cThe Sun Won\u2019t Shine On Me\u201d, from this much-anticipated LP.\u00a0 A [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":14988,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"image","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[6479,6483,6481,6482,4125,6480],"class_list":["post-14985","post","type-post","status-publish","format-image","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-photocredit-donald-milne","tag-donald-milne","tag-endless-arcade","tag-norman-blake","tag-sonic-pr","tag-teenage-fanclub","post_format-post-format-image"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14985","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=14985"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14985\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14989,"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14985\/revisions\/14989"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/14988"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=14985"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=14985"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rpmonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=14985"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
