Art d’Ecco Aims For Directness On New Album ‘Scheele’s Green’

Clash ·

Vancouver artist Art d’Ecco has released his fifth album, *Scheele’s Green*, in full. The record is among his most explicitly political, using his sharp-edged art-pop to address current unrest and economic strain.

The album refers to a 19th-century green pigment whose chemical ingredients gradually poisoned people exposed to it. Art d’Ecco says he wanted to express his feelings more directly, mixing gallows humour with defiance and a refusal to give up.

In short

  • Art d’Ecco has released his fifth album, *Scheele’s Green*.
  • The record takes on political turmoil and the cost of living.
  • Its title refers to a poisonous 19th-century pigment.
