The new album from Radiation City, Synesthetica, is now available in stores and online!
After founding couple Cameron Spies and Lizzy Ellison called off their wedding and almost dissolved the band, Radiation City found new life by deciding it was
not going to polish up its old style for Synesthetica; it was going to completely overhaul both its process and its sound.Recorded by John Vanderslice at Tiny Telephone Studios and featuring drumming by Unknown Mortal Orchestra's Riley Geare, Synesthetica is sensual and synthetic in equal turns. The making of this new album almost killed this band, but instead, it serves as the opening salvo of a monumental second act.

Synesthetica is a fresh take on their lush lovestruck (and lovelorn) sound, filtering their signature dreamy '60s tinged lounge pop through more synths than ever before. .
-- KEXP ["Milky White"] winds in and out of several beats and grooves, and each of them is spectacular in their respective moments."-- Stereogum
The shiny-happy '60s dream-pop has been augmented by riffier synths and a reverb-ed out pulse that scratches at the surface of the '80s with the entire package boasting stunning vocal performances by all involved.
