The Chain Gang of 1974 has released new album FELT on Caroline Records today. The 9-track collection expands upon a dreamy synth-pop that initially earned Chain Gang adoration worldwide, progressing into the project’s most strikingly honest material to date. Kamtin Mohager tells us, “After 10 years of having this project, I believe that FELT sounds exactly like what Chain Gang Of 1974 is supposed to sound like.
