Mandy, Indiana

Manchester’s genre smashing four-piece push harder than ever on URGH, fusing pounding industrial beats, bristling techno, and razor-sharp noise, while vocalist Valentine Caulfield turns her voice into pure fire. Written amid personal struggles and health crises, the record radiates urgency and a cathartic collision of beauty and brutality. From the blistering “Magazine” to the raw protest of “i’ll ask her,” this is Mandy, Indiana at their most urgent, defiant, and unclassifiable. A leap forward from their acclaimed debut, URGH is equal parts rebellion, release, and dancefloor destruction.
