Today, Phantogram has released their fifth album, Memory Of A Day via Neon Gold Records, which can be heard / purchased here: https://neongoldrecords.ffm.to/moad. Sparked by a color or song that recalls the most joyful and tragic moments in your life, a sense memory vaults you into the distant past. These subtle triggers remind us that memory isn’t confined to the mind; it lives in the body, too. The new album captures that disorienting sense of time travel with the band noting, “We put these songs together as a capsule, thinking about how a certain sound or melody can bring you back instantly to a memory of a day.” 

Alongside the LP, the duo – Sarah Barthel and Josh Carter – have shared their latest single, the driving, gauzy  and wistful burst of color, “Attaway.” Of the track, they share,  “‘Attaway might be our favorite song on the whole album. We love the way the pattern of the chords change throughout the song, yet still sounds cohesive and isn’t confusing. The way we incorporated a spaced-out looped sample with driving bass and angular guitar challenged us in a really fun and creative way. The massive, washed out and hypnotic chorus came so naturally in the studio. As unconventional as this song may seem on paper, it flowed out of us in a way that reminds me of why we make music in the first place, capturing the pure emotion and true essence of our being. This song makes the hair on my arm stand up and reminds me of who we are and who Phantogram is: a band with no rules – sonically, rhythmically, and emotionally – yet still maintains a familiar voice that is uniquely ours. Our goal from the inception of Phantogram was to make music that we would want to hear, never stop creating and challenging ourselves, and it is such a special feeling that we’ve been able to continue doing that – both sonically and lyrically – and as best friends by each other’s side.” Listen to “Attaway” here and watch the video here:

Lauded as an experimental and alternative band and one that’s never been married to a particular genre, Phantogram have continued to change the zeitgeist for almost a decade by consistently challenging it with their signature blend of hard-hitting beats, guitar driven dark psychedelia and electronic pop. The new songs – recorded with producer John Hill, alongside special collaborators like Mikky Ekko and Dan Wilson – weave together the band’s signature mix of hazy synths, hypnotic guitars, beat-crushing drum machines and mesmerizing vocals. For the band, writing the new music was their most exciting experience creating together since their early days as a band – a rebirth for the lifelong friends, creating music freely during the recording process. In addition to “Attaway,” the album release follows early album singles “Come Alive,” “Happy Again,” “All A Mystery,” and “It Wasn’t Meant To Be.” 

Memory Of A Day marks the latest album in Phantogram’s illustrious body of work that includes Eyelid Movies (2010), Voices (2014), Three (2016) and Ceremony (2020). The duo have collaborated with legends such as Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine, Billy Corgan, The Flaming Lips and Miley Cyrus, partnered with Big Boi of Outkast to form supergroup Big Grams, headlined sold out shows worldwide, become a festival staple and toured with artists including The xx, Muse, M83, alt-J, Arcade Fire, Queens of the Stone Age and more. Since the arrival of Eyelid Movies, the duo has amassed over a billion streams, achieved a platinum-certified single, two gold-certified singles, and more
