"They truly come into their own sound on In Bardo. The new album combines wirey guitar ("Get By"), slinky electronics ("Scream"), sunny grooves ("We Can't Ever Die"), and powerful percussion ("I Want a Taste") to gauzy, entrancing effect"." -
White Arrows have announced winter headlining shows in support of In Bardo. The upcoming tour will include stops in major west coast cities including San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, a hometown show at the El Rey in Los Angeles and more. The tour follows up the spring's successful tour withThe Neighbourhood and a sold out headlining show at The Troubadour in Los Angeles.

"A well-balanced blend of electronic, rock, and global instrumentation, and easily
digestible dance-friendly rhythms" - The AV Club
"The quintet hits pop and calypso flavors along the way, finding itself slotted
alongside Vampire Weekend and Animal Collective...Nicely done"

White Arrows unveiled a new digital remix EP of the band's track "We Can't Ever Die" from the their recent full-length album In Bardo. The EP, streaming now on Spotify, features remixes by
D. Konopka (of OK Go), Milo Greene, Ricky Eat Acid, Vacationer and an exclusive remix byCHAPPO. Kick Kick Snare praised D. Konopka's reworking of the track and said, "Right from the beginning I was hooked...this song should most definitely be playing at all times and in all scenarios."Indie Shuffle shared Vacationer's remix and said, "The psych pop stylings of L.A.'s White Arrows has been thrown out the window and taken over by the rampant indie pop trio from Philly, and I am loving the result." White Arrows' In Bardo is available now on CD and LP and digitally throughiTunes.
Bardo is defined as a transitional state of being, the phase of existence between death and rebirth. It represents an evolution, which is why the title of White Arrows' second album, In Bardo, is so appropriate. The Los Angeles indie rock band found themselves in a new plane of being after touring extensively since their inception, hitting the road with bands such as Cults, White Denim, The Naked and Famous, and performing at festivals like Coachella and Sasquatch. The band finally grounded themselves enough to create a cohesive work that reflected the musicians' present mindset. Songs like "Leave It Alone" represent the musicians' current mindset and inspirations. For White Arrows, In Bardo is the transition. It marks the end of one thing and the beginning of another.
