US Progressive Rock/AOR band Dream the Electric Sleep has unveiled the single “Forged In the Furnace” taken from upcoming new album “American Mystic” set to release on July 14, 2023. Watch the official lyric video through the YouTube player below:
“This is the most personal record we’ve written I think,” says vocalist and guitarist Matt Page, who is joined on the new album by band mates Joey Waters on drums and Chris Tackett on bass.
“We started writing this in 2017 and it felt like each month brought some new social, political, or personal upheaval. Politics fell apart, I became a new parent, then a pandemic, then more political and social fallout. The list was just never ending, and we needed a place to unpack the chaos and continually find a new footing.
Fortunately, we had a great producer, Michael Beinhorn, who understood what we were working through and knew how to keep us writing, revising, and finding the emotional threads that pulled the album together. His guidance, persistence, and care were tremendous.“
“American Mystic” combines ’70s AOR and ’80s Darkwave, with a Spacey, Heavy, Post-Rock intensity,” according to the band.
