Originally released digitally in February 2020 by the band, and then released on CD in 2020

and on Vinyl in April 2022 by Icy Cold Records, both formats SOLD OUT almost immediately.

The Good news: as a preparation for a big US- and EU tour, a second print of the LP is ready

and still in black … our favorite color !

Chicago-based indie rock band French Police sounds like a must for fans of Motorama,

DIIV… The record largely follows the band’s signature sound, which they describe as

being char-acterized by “fast melodies”, “distant voices with short verses”, and “lots of

reverb”; however, some of the trackssport a more traditional song structure with longer

verses and more prominent vocals, such as the lead single, “Dance with Me” (a dark,

captivating bop with a ghostly atmosphere) and “Mission” (a warm, yet somber track with

pulsating 80s-style drums).

Sonically, Haunted Castle carries a sense of melancholia that can be felt on tracks like

“Sushi and Sex”, “I’m upset”, and “Future Past” (a spacey, ethereal number with strong

vocals).
