Summary: The synth-pop ensemble Future Bible Heroes just released Partygoing, its first full-length album since 2002’s Eternal Youth. Anchored by vocalist and lyricist Stephin Merritt of The Magnetic Fields, the group's sound is crafted by Boston-based DJ Chris Ewen and Magnetic Fields member Claudia Gonson, who shares lead vocal duties with Merritt in Future Bible Heroes. While Merritt has since stepped out of the group's latest tour due to a hearing issue related to high volumes, he joins the band for an acoustic performance amid the band's electronic session in the Soundcheck studio.
