“A ’70s-style hard rock hammer down on an acid-soaked heavy-psych anvil.” — Bandcamp Daily

“Their renaissance after a seven-year hiatus is huge.” — Rock Hard Magazine

“Immersive, thought-provoking, and undeniably electric.” — Prog Rock Journal

“Entrancing, absorbing, and spellbinding.” — Maximum Volume Music

“A triumphant return.” — Doom Charts

Watch Electric Citizen’s new video »Static Vision«!

»Static Vision« is a descent into screen-fueled catatonia and bucolic escapism. Director Jane Elizabeth Slater channels the early ’90s with plenty of VHS grit, postmodern decor, and visuals inspired by Neil Krug’s cover art for the band’s newest album. Edited and shot using a mix of vintage camcorder and DSLR by Slater herself, »Static Vision« is a wistful homage to an era before digital dependence.

Electric Citizen’s prodigious fourth album will take you on a weird, fun and unwaveringly electrifying journey filled with head-bobbing, riff-driven magic and eerie rite-worthy daydreams. Fearlessly sailing between proto-doom stompers and searing 70s prog propelled by organ cascades, these goldsmiths of golden-era heavy led by the unique voice of Laura Dolan sit firmly in that time machine between Uriah Heep, Coven, Deep Purple and Blood Ceremony.

Since forming in 2012, Cincinnati-based rockers Electric Citizen have carved out a distinct sound, blending vintage psychedelia with heavy rock ‘n’ roll. With three acclaimed albums under their belt, Electric Citizen has toured extensively, sharing stages with acts like The Crazy World of Arthur Brown, Pentagram and Fu Manchu. Now signed to Heavy Psych Sounds, Electric Citizen is ready to unleash their most potent work yet: a fusion of hypnotic grooves, searing guitars, and Laura Dolan’s mesmerizing vocals. »EC4« is both a homecoming and a rebirth.

Seven years after their last album »Helltown«, Electric Citizen returns with their fourth full-length »EC4« – a powerful statement of renewal and raw energy. Written by Ross Dolan with contributions from the full band, the album was meticulously crafted over several years and recorded with Mike Montgomery and John Hoffman at Candyland Studio in Dayton, KY. It was mixed by Collin Dupuis (Lana Del Rey, The Black Keys) in Detroit and mastered by JJ Golden (Ty Segall, Calexico) at Golden Mastering in California. The album art was created by Neil Krug (Lana Del Rey, Tame Impala, Weyes Blood), who worked on their debut album »Sateen«.
