With the imminent release of their second album, URGH, your senses are going to discover that Mandy, Indiana are operating on a whole different plane that goes beyond the already-reckless experimental industrial dance complex which they’ve broken structures with to date. “Sicko!”, the album’s final preview before its drop on Friday, plays like one last, resounding warning before the entire thing explodes in front of the rest of the world.

The listen seeks further outsiderness in their art by inviting billy woods, one half of Armand Hammer and arguably the greatest rapper of these modern times, into their fold. Valentine Caulfield’s vocals are obscured in favor of woods’ presence — a menacing spitfire delivery of societal ills as a byproduct spewed from big pharma and corporate healthcare greed — that dive into a neural-psychosis techno deconfiguration that mimics the body internally in flux with its own balance.

Fittingly, seven different video creators provided concepts — both available as an interactive carousel and stitched together for its accompanying visuals below — in a reflection of striated narratives and attention-deficit in today’s consumption of art as content.

Directed by: James Winstanley, Lewis Cooper, Caleb Riley, Nicole Olke, Lorenzo Savino, Matilde Bassetti, Matt Tulloch & Dan Tombs

Mandy, Indiana’s URGH will be released February 2nd on Sacred Bones Records.
