A true amalgamation of all the band’s influences; experimental, hip-hop, digital, hardcore, future-facing punk, metal, jarring industrial and off-kilter electronics—the album is their most emotional offering to date, rooted in personal struggle and triumph. *“When we started this process, we knew we wanted to make more relatable songs,”* says theOGM.* “It was a healthy challenge to focus on emotion. In the past, a lot of our material was politically charged. That element is present to a degree, but we wanted to take a more personal route. This mindset drove how we wrote songs. Everybody has a struggle. The goal is to find motivation for preservation.”*

Today, the band shares the album’s lead single **Upside Down**,a neck-snapping blend of warped guitars, woozy melodies, and driving bass-lines.

The track arrives alongside a dystopian video set in a world where the Chinese Yuan is world currency and water has become a black market commodity.

The New Jersey-bred outfit made its way to Los Angeles over a decade ago. Surging and seething just below the surface, the pair broke through as an apocalyptically fascinating outlier with their 2017 full-length debut, United States of Horror. In the meantime, their infamous live shows became the stuff of legend as they packed houses on their own and shared stages with everyone from **Slipknot**, **Korn**, **Alice In Chains**, **Rob Zombie**, **Ministry** and** The Dillinger Escape Plan** to **Lil Uzi Vert**, **Denzel Curry**, **Cypress Hill**, and **Ghostface Killah**. Earning the respect of an elite cohort of peers, popular collaborations placed them toe-to-toe with **Corey Taylor** of Slipknot, **The Prodigy**,** JPEGMAFIA**, **Ghostemane**, **HEALTH**,** 3TEETH**, and **N8NOFACE**, to name a few. **Jack Black** made an appearance in their** KULT CABLE** series while they guested on **The Eric Andre Show**. They’ve received further acclaim from** The New York Times**, **NME**, **The Guardian**, **Kerrang!**, **Metal Hammer**, T**he FADER**, **Revolver**, and more. They stand out as the rare phenomenon who can decimate Hellfest and Aftershock Festival and captivate on A COLORS SHOW.
