It will also be the first to feature Euros Childs from Welsh alt-rock heroes Gorky’s Zygotic Mynci, who joined Teenage Fanclub the same year.

“I think of an endless arcade as a city that you can wander through, with a sense of mystery, an imaginary one that goes on forever,” commented the band’s Raymond McGinley in a statement upon the album’s announcement last year.
“When it came to choosing an album title, it seemed to have something for this collection of songs.”
