  ## Background and recording
  
  On August 8, 2013 via Pavement Entertainment, it was announced that Tantric would be releasing their fifth studio album titled 37 Channels on September 17, 2013.
  
  Lead singer Hugo Ferreira remained the only sole member of the band during the album's recording.
  
  Ferreira commented on the album saying:"I didn't let people jerk off all over this record, I'm very protective of it. I used to let things go, but I literally oversaw every aspect of 37 Channels." Ferreira also explained the songwriting of the album saying:"I can't afford a therapist, so this is what I do. I regurgitate all my angst and pain and confusion and joy. I'm showing more, letting people into my brain and heart."
  
  Soon after the release of the album in the fall of 2013 Hugo recruited drummer TJ Taylor, bassist Scott Wilson and guitarist Derek Isaacs and went on to tour in support of the album.
