Scottish power-pop icons Teenage Fanclub return with “Home,” the first single off their upcoming Endless Arcade LP, out on March 5, 2021, via Merge Records. The release will mark the first new Teenage Fanclub LP since 2016’s Here.

“Home” sounds like a classic TFC cut, with a jangly pop melody that offsets the song’s melancholy lyrics. The band has shared an edited version of the track, which you can stream below (the album version stretches out to seven minutes).

Endless Arcade pre-orders are available via Merge, including “translucent pink Peak Vinyl packaged in a special die-cut jacket.” The first 100 color vinyl orders will also receive a 12” × 12” print signed by the band.

We spoke with Teenage Fanclub’s Norman Blake about the recording of the album, supporting Radiohead on the OK Computer tour, and much more, in our 2019 interview. You can read that here, and check out our review and photo gallery from the band’s last sold-out Montreal appearance here.

Endless Arcade is out on March 5, 2021.
