CANDY have unveiled their latest single, 'Love Like Snow,' showcasing a shift towards a more melodic and soft sound, accentuated by electronic and trance-like production elements. The track features vocals from MIRSY, the side project of Marisa Shriar from Fleshwater, and mmph, the moniker of Los Angeles producer Sae Heum Han, who mixed and co-produced the song. In addition to the single release, the band have shared a cinematic and eerily camp music video directed by CANDY’s Michael Quick. 'Love Like Snow' peels back another layer of what can be found on the band's new album, It’s Inside You, due 7th June through Relapse Records

Forthcoming album, It's Inside You, heralds a new era for the fusion of hardcore, metal, and electronic music, pushing boundaries and redefining the possibilities of these genres. The album features the highly acclaimed single 'eXistenZ,' which draws inspiration from the 1999 David Cronenberg film. Stereogum described the track as "brief but packed with as much chaos as possible." Throughout the album CANDY showcase their signature blend of metal-warping and digitally-coated hardcore across 12 tracks. Produced by Michael Quick and Ben Greenberg of Uniform, and mixed by Kurt Ballou at God City Studios (known for his work with NAILS, High on FireThe Armed), It's Inside You promises to deliver a powerful and dynamic listening experience.

 

Serving as a powerful manifesto of unity and inner resilience, the new album navigates the intricate depths of the human psyche with both darkness and light. While themes of nihilism and contemporary struggles persist, It's Inside You showcases a newfound sense of vulnerability and tenderness. Through its dynamic soundscapes, the band cultivate an invigorating and empowering ambiance, emphasising the importance of self-discovery and interpersonal connections. During the album's creation, CANDY collaborated with a diverse range of artists such as Aaron Melnick (Integrity), Justice Tripp (Angel Du$t, Trapped Under Ice), David Gagliardi (Trash Talk), MIRSY (Marisa Shriar from Fleshwater), and mmph (Sae Heum Han), each contributing to enrich and redefine the band's distinctive energy.


It's Inside You follows CANDY's sophomore album Heaven Is Here, which arrived in 2022 and was described by The FADER as “hardcore that sounds like a nuclear meltdown” and includes the tracks 'Human Condition Above Human Opinion,' 'Transcend To Wet' and 'World of Shit.' In 2018, CANDY released their debut album Good To Feel, which includes the standout tracks 'Good To Feel' and 'Lust For Destruction.' In 2019, the band released the standalone singles 'Super-Stare' and 'Win Free Love' and acted as the distinct bridge between Good To Feel and Heaven Is Here.

Additionally, CANDY will be performing two nights with The Dillinger Escape Plan at New York City’s Brooklyn Paramount on 21st June and 23rd June. Both shows are now sold out.
