A melding of hypnotic rhythms and densely layered synth soundscapes, \u2018Dream Weapon\u2019 was recorded and produced alongside long-time collaborator Kurt Ballou at God City Studio in Salem, Massachusetts, with additional production and engineering by Ben Chisholm (Chelsea Wolfe), JJ Heath (Rain City Recorders), and Zach Weeks (God City Studio) and was mastered by Heba Kadry.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Dream Weapon\u2019 is out March 26, 2021 on CD\/LP\/Digital.

The new album redefines what these genres, sounds, and musical elements can achieve. Dream Weapon is a record that captures Genghis Tron at a matured, focused state; the ebbs and flows of the album are just as hard-hitting as they are dreamy, soaring, and meditative.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Seasoned Genghis Tron listeners will find \u2018Dream Weapon\u2019 to be both excitingly fresh and reassuringly familiar.<em> \u201cThough it sounds a bit different than our previous albums, I don&#8217;t think we approached Dream Weapon any differently than the others,\u201d<\/em> Jordan explains.<em> \u201cMichael and I take years to write and trade demos, with about 80% of our ideas landing on the cutting-room floor. Once we have a rough song idea we both like, we write dozens of drafts of a song over months before we end up with a final demo.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c<em>I think one difference in our approach for this album was that we had a strong sense from the outset of what kind of vibe we wanted to create,\u201d <\/em>Sochynsky adds. \u201c<em>Something more cohesive, meditative and hypnotic.\u201d<\/em>\u00a0Through the album\u2019s inventiveness and rejuvenated approach, \u2018Dream Weapon\u2019 marks another bold step forward in the wildly creative career of Genghis Tron, and cements the band&#8217;s legacy of groundbreaking, genre-defying innovation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Genghis Tron have shared the official hypnotic 4K video for Pyrocene just ahead of the release of \u2018Dream Weapon\u2019.
