@@uriahbellettodamn, I can't even imagine how it could get much better than this but I'm right there with you. A friend just turned me onto this record last night and I've already listened to it at least three times and I'm obsessed. I listened to all the rest of their stuff too and it's all fantastic, writing and production are off the charts
@@simspawn Okay so lets start with image, Mica's character True goes to get a disk inserted so that True can get a new image. That new image we see here in Death & Romance. Death & Romance is the immediate next song after Image. Then we get the bonus song at the end Fear, Sex, which connects D&R and Image. Were we see that True didn't get the new image she wanted and instead is stuck in the Doctor's office. That's the really short explanation to keep everything concise, because otherwise I could ramble on for a good few paragraphs with theories. But why do that when we can enjoy the music instead and wait for the the full album and ALL the videos clips to piece together the full story? Speaking of which ONE MORE WEEK!
I literally cannot comprehend how good these two songs are. I have never been this obsessed with a song in my life. Thousands of liked songs, and this is the peak of my listening history ever ever ever. It’s fucking insane
@@jessesuny7043 haha. There ya go then. Might seem a bit different but check out Flaming Lips - Yoshimi Battles the pink robots (the album). Obviously the guy can't sing like Magdalena Bay but he has an earnest beauty for sure. There are def some of the same sunny/sci-fi/cartoony yet melancholy vibes and amazing production. I'd be surprised if MB were not influenced by that album. Also Air's first album "Moon Safari".
exactly what i thought too, i have a playlist with almost 4k songs, i listened to countless amount of albums and today i listened to this album fully and it's genuinely the best music i've ever heard if i rate most songs i listen to 7/10-10/10 this album is 12/10 and this song is literally the best of all time
@@vovithywhy are we the same like…music really peaked here. my spotify listening minutes were equivalent to 3 months worth of hours last year baring in mind.
I swear everything you guys come out with it's always a banger. You guys haven't missed a single time and I'm genuinely convinced you're one of the best duos, not only of pop, but music in general
hi sorry i just saw u comment on the newest vulfpeck song as well and wanted to tell you your music taste bangs as hard as your videos 😩 thank u for existing!!!
Every time I hear the bassline and drums drop on Fear Sex it sends me... one of many sublime moments on this album. I'm a major Charli/brat stan and I hope she wins at the Grammys but Death and Romance would've been my pick for record of the year. It's criminal that we're not hearing it blasted everywhere.
You did it. IT. LORD only Knows your LIFE, toil, time, trauma.. and talent all coming together, to reach your potential..but youre so special. Godspeed Mag!
the drums on this are so insanely fun, the way the snare shifts around, and the bass synth swell on the emphasis also, and the funky bass, and the UFO ARP :D super cool song
Almost feels like Death & Romance are gorgeous ideals (Death til us part;Hopeless romantics) almost unattainable, and then Fear & Sex are the carnal counterparts to each that results into a spiral into despair ("I'm sending out a distress"). Maybe I'm crazy...such a good song/video.
This era of Magdalena Bay is incredible, I don't know them personally but I'm so proud and happy for them. This goes so hard and has ended up one of my many favorites on the new album! Love is everywhere!
I love Magdalena Bay! For years now. What sucks is when you never told someone in your life you loved them so deeply. Then they die. Then they come thru in a dream and tell you they loved you just as much. It’s hard to take… This song really hits close to home. Just my interpretation obviously. Anyway please continue to be amazing Magdalena Bay!!! ❤
I’m crying. My mom passed away a week ago, your music has carried me through so many bad times these past few years. I sprained my ankle and still made it to your Mercurial World your, your music means everything to me and has touched my little weirdo soul. Thank you for getting me through the hard times 💗🧚♀️
40 year old here, I dont mean to be comment bombing this but I cant stop listening!!! Hope you kids don't mind me bumping in on your grind. The piano just does me, idk what it does me other than it does ME. It ME'S as a verb so gd hard I just can't ~ Thank you for soothing my broken soul with your sounds. It really does mean a lot and makes life better.
Interlude's(?) lyrics (I think): So you stand in a broken war You fall upon your sword Cheers to what you had You said forgive and forget Then got me into this mess Through an open door I'm where I was before Cheers to what we had You said forgive and forget So get me out of this mess Get me Get me Get me, me Get me Get me Get me, me I'm sending out a distress So get me out of this mess So get me out of this mess Please don't die alone Overhead I'll surrender to the voices in the end Shoulda known those dirty bastards would Put wires in your head Are you there? All alone, lost in forever Please don't die alone Overhead I'll surrender to the voices in the end Shoulda known those dirty bastards would Put wires in your head Are you there? All alone, lost in forever
When I realized this song was 8 mins long I was like "ya, I don't care. It deserves it." I feel the piano run so hard. I don't even know what the feeling is, but it moves me. I feel this song in my soul. Thanks for the song guys. Really hope you do more I feel this strongly.
Genuine question, would it be weird for a straight guy to listen to this. I don’t think so but I feel like others would think so if I posted it on my IG notes. At the same time I’d say fuck em cause they’re missing out on beautiful music
why does this video not have millions of clicks 😮......... ænd definetly Album of the year !! and their whole catalogue is fuuuull of the most beautiful creativity !!! bUt this album with live drums......kicks ass !! aaaah LoooOOOve you ❤ from here Ænd beyond
THE SECOND SURPRISE TRACK?? THE STORYLINE????? Magdalena Bay bringing back the art of the music video, so excited for the new album! Magbayinators rise!!
Just discovered your music a few days ago (Image came in my feed) and I was immediately intrigued, but this one is something else man. Both the music and clip are quiet epic, absolutely vibrant and creative, but it's also a striking mix of pristine beauty and quirkiness that makes it all the more captivating! This is going to stay in my mind for a few weeks now... Beautiful.

It's great to see a band put out something that builds on their previous work, but totally defies expectations and also slaps.
Duo
Yeah this album put this band immediately into my "Look out for their next album" mental list because I expect it to only get better from here.
@@uriahbellettodamn, I can't even imagine how it could get much better than this but I'm right there with you.

Am I the only one out there who cried to this song and this record? Absolutely unbelievable album, omfg.
watching tv was where i cried. actually light years ahead of any other album released in 2024.
This is quite possibly 1 of the greatest songs I’ve ever heard in this generation
And to me, it bridges the late '90s with today in a strange delight.
I see Matt finally shed his human skin suit and we got to see his final form.
So proud of him for transcending to a being of pure light
and in rainbow colors.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ha, that's not even his final form..
tru
OH THE ENDING AND IMAGE NOW MAKES SENSE
holy shit lol
Fing explain then xD
@@simspawn Yeah, we see how the imagery connects but it's not exactly a coherent story (yet)

😊.😊😊😊😊.
"Fear, sex" is the song in the outro for anyone who is still wondering ;)
wild when the album dropped, i thought it was an extended version but combo MV is nice :P
THANK YOU THIS IS THE COMMENT I WAS LOOKING FOR
I literally cannot comprehend how good these two songs are. I have never been this obsessed with a song in my life. Thousands of liked songs, and this is the peak of my listening history ever ever ever. It’s fucking insane
I know right. So good. I feel like you'll appreciate Jessie Ware - Remember Where You Are. Another beautiful and funky modern song.
@@MrTingle-qi2neI have their two most recent albums on vinyl. Love her sm

did I just listen to the greatest pop song of all time????????
yes.
yes
Sorry, that title belongs to every hit song in Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” album
@@cesarSaysMLC Death and Romance is better than most Thriller tracks I reckon...
@@cesarSaysMLCthat shit's obsolete man
THAT OUTRO?!?!?!?
The way I shot straight up from the couch and opened my Spotify thinking that another song was released without me knowing…
I bet you had a good time in the past few days then lol
Search "Your Imagination, Natural lemon and lime flavours." You'll thank me later.
When he inserted the CD straight into her brain at the end, thats what I do with all your albums
JoJo's reference
@@dizzypear it's not
Yo that outro song/interlude was fucking insane. Can't wait to be transported into a new planet with this next album. Save me Magdalena Bay
real, i'm going to get high when the album drops
i hope it's included in the full album not just the music video
@@ethab57 it's called "Fear, Sex"
try "your imagination by all natural lemon and lime flavors"
lol these guys are such geniuses, im glad they decided to pursue music as a career
Imagine if they hadn't....none of us would have experienced their wonderful tracks 😬
I swear everything you guys come out with it's always a banger. You guys haven't missed a single time and I'm genuinely convinced you're one of the best duos, not only of pop, but music in general
If the MTV of the 80's still existed, they would definitely be playing MB videos.
That ending track is insane, im spechless
indeed :o
this is astonishing and life changing and incredible wow
hi sorry i just saw u comment on the newest vulfpeck song as well and wanted to tell you your music taste bangs as hard as your videos 😩 thank u for existing!!!
Omg ro? Idk u but I'm a fan n live in sea, ofc u would appreciate magdalena bay! Theyre incredible, I can't wait to see them in sept
This has got to be one of the best songs ever written.
I'm pretty sure these two are cosmic beings come from the stars to teach us their unknowable ways.
I get such Kylie Minogue vibes from this. I love the contrast between this and a song like Image. Beautiful music video too
some of the greatest art ever made im serious
I thought the song was about to end, but it continued and was so amazing that it gave me goosebumps.
OMG SAME!
I legit sat up in a panic 😂❤
I just noticed that! Is it a different song that hasn’t been released?
@@julieta12 It's the song that comes right after Death & Romance on the album! It's called "Fear, Sex"!
real
Every time I hear the bassline and drums drop on Fear Sex it sends me... one of many sublime moments on this album.
I'm a major Charli/brat stan and I hope she wins at the Grammys but Death and Romance would've been my pick for record of the year. It's criminal that we're not hearing it blasted everywhere.
I’ve been blown away
I need the last track on Spotify, that was sooo goood!!!
It’s track 6 on their new record
It's fear,sex
💿💿💿 Magdel-obotomy time 💿💿💿
😂😂😂❤️🔥
Laughing and thinking, "What the hell am I watching?" At the same time.
Gotta love Magdalena Bay. I'm so glad we get new releases!
"good pop music is like a successful lobotomy"
These two songs are basically just both of them being in the pocket the whole time, it's fucking wild
You did it. IT. LORD only Knows your LIFE, toil, time, trauma.. and talent all coming together, to reach your potential..but youre so special. Godspeed Mag!
the ending to this song is insanely good. thank you for the music!
"your imagination, all natural lemon and lime flavors." give it a go :)

this album is growing on me. what a fantastic piece of work. it's breathtaking.
I’m just discovering Magdalena Bay and OMG where have I been, the visuals the sound all so ETHEREAL
I don’t comment on YT much but spotify randomly played this album for me, and its been on repeat since
Had to get this on vinyl.
Well, this is objectively the best pop song in human history, how have we not built monuments to this
This era of Magdalena Bay is incredible, I don't know them personally but I'm so proud and happy for them. This goes so hard and has ended up one of my many favorites on the new album! Love is everywhere!
We're about to enter another masterpiece era guys
They have a 100% accuracy stat. I call hacks.
@@HamishEdmondson I'm ok with whatever cheat codes are being used here because these mfs just don't miss
When did we exit the last one?
and I'm always here for it!
honey we never left
absoutely insane omg what an era ..
I love Magdalena Bay! For years now. What sucks is when you never told someone in your life you loved them so deeply. Then they die. Then they come thru in a dream and tell you they loved you just as much. It’s hard to take… This song really hits close to home. Just my interpretation obviously. Anyway please continue to be amazing Magdalena Bay!!! ❤
Just tell Magdalena Bay you love them already!
a masterpiece
The best song for testing new speakers
just incredible
Oh I already know this is going to be on repeat for days!! Especially that ending track though??? I'M OBSESSED
clear example to keep true to urself while doin art
I’m crying. My mom passed away a week ago, your music has carried me through so many bad times these past few years. I sprained my ankle and still made it to your Mercurial World your, your music means everything to me and has touched my little weirdo soul. Thank you for getting me through the hard times 💗🧚♀️
We love you 🩵🩵🩵
Sorry for your loss
So sorry for your loss
So so sorry for your loss. Hope you and your family are okay.
Good job
THAT WAS SOOOOOO GOOOOOOOD, WHAT WAS THAT LAST TRACK???? OMG!!! YEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
THE TRACK AT THE END IS SO FUCKING GOOD I NEED IT NOWWWW
Anyone know when it’s out???
@@scorpio2630 probably friday tbh
Channel named Halfway has the third act. Amazing
Their music always pairs well with a subwoofer!
Mag Bay are truly leveling up their visuals for this new album cycle, I love their silly lil existential stories so much!
I love this. It’s so 80s and weird. Brilliant.
The way she sings "those dirty bastards" is so cute.
They just keep getting better and better. 😍
This song is so unique...
Someone said this sounds like Carly Rae Jepsen if she came from space and it's so accurate 😭😭😭😭
The visuals and song felt so ethereal definitely one of my favorites
This is straight 8 mins eargasm !
The surprise new track at the end tho
You guys keep putting out absolute Ws every time.
sooooo psyched for this new era, it’s going to change me on a fundamental level and I’m so ready
So glad I was there to witness this drop (outro and all) last Tuesday.
40 year old here, I dont mean to be comment bombing this but I cant stop listening!!! Hope you kids don't mind me bumping in on your grind.
The piano just does me, idk what it does me other than it does ME. It ME'S as a verb so gd hard I just can't ~
Thank you for soothing my broken soul with your sounds. It really does mean a lot and makes life better.
also 40. love the Primal Scream vibes i'm getting from this
music is for everyone. it’s just cool to keep finding and loving new music as you age. a lot of people don’t! this album is gorgeous
Yeah the piano just sounds amazing. It seems to be unable to decide whether it's major or minor and it just hits
Song of the decade
Interlude's(?) lyrics (I think):
So you stand in a broken war
You fall upon your sword
Cheers to what you had
You said forgive and forget
Then got me into this mess
Through an open door
I'm where I was before
Cheers to what we had
You said forgive and forget
So get me out of this mess
Get me
Get me
Get me, me
Get me
Get me
Get me, me
I'm sending out a distress
So get me out of this mess
So get me out of this mess
Please don't die alone
Overhead
I'll surrender to the voices in the end
Shoulda known those dirty bastards would
Put wires in your head
Are you there?
All alone, lost in forever
Please don't die alone
Overhead
I'll surrender to the voices in the end
Shoulda known those dirty bastards would
Put wires in your head
Are you there?
All alone, lost in forever
🎶Shoulda known those dirty bastards would put wires in your head🎶
THANK YOU @@MagdalenaBay

Interesting... Synchronicity did it again. 👽

Idk, I'm pretty much straight and I listen to it~
best music video
Thank you for existing.
this is progressive pop ladies and gent.
This and Exploring Birdsong making the best prog pop
@@Clokkemaker12 Isn't it called Avant-Pop?
it's really not, more along the lines of pop rock or neo-psychedelia
This is definitely a Pink Floyd-inspired psychedelic prog rock vibe
This is prog-pop in the sense that this song goes places you didn't know existed before.
Best release of 2024 for sure
why does this video not have millions of clicks 😮......... ænd definetly Album of the year !! and their whole catalogue is fuuuull of the most beautiful creativity !!! bUt this album with live drums......kicks ass !! aaaah LoooOOOve you ❤ from here Ænd beyond
This is seriously so good and majestic. HOW HAS IT STILL NOT GONE VIRAL??
Most people are idiots listening to drake
2025 is the year Magdalena Bay is a household name doing massive world tours.
I'm head over heels in love with Magdalena Bay. When I listen to their music, my heart beats faster and faster. Absolute genius!
that interlude is really something else
I love how their visuals are always kinda whimsical
This song slaps so hard,
But that BASSLINE SLAAAAAAAPS
Son increíbles, los amo y amo esta canción
the ending made ME CRYYY.. guys you are THE BEST thing that i discovered in 2024
there's really no one else like magdalena bay i reckon
This is art 😭 honestly the most well spent 8 mins of my life
Such a visual masterpiece
THE SECOND SURPRISE TRACK?? THE STORYLINE????? Magdalena Bay bringing back the art of the music video, so excited for the new album! Magbayinators rise!!
This is everything.. feels straight out of a psychedelic dream
I don’t feel weird and lonely anymore.⭐️ just a beautiful scene!

you should really listen to Imaginal Disk, their latest project, album of the year imo
I dont think Ive ever been that engrossed in both the music and video part of a music video before
Omg i love magdalena bay
this is the greatest piece of art I have ever witnessed I just cried
I keep coming back to listen to what I assume is Fear, Sex. I simply cannot wait for this album 💿
Little Dragon + Grimes . I am sold !
I've been watching this just to get to the second song. Pure bliss. Love the breakdowns. Favorite band right now, I love you guys.
telling my kids this is magdalena bay
Telling the truth like an absolute villain
Simply the best 8-minute music video I have ever seen!
Song of the year
Love the pop jazz with funk and psych in it. Brilliant vocals brilliant track
6:17 Those Dreamcast Startup style sounds are so good, this whole song and the bonus track are amazing‼️‼️‼️‼️
I think at the age of 35 you're unable to find out your new favourite song of all time but here we are ❤
The song and this band are perfect, progressive synth/spacepop. imo this is the most exciting band since 20 years.
It was worth waiting so long to hear this work of art.
The way this song already feels like a classic
I still cannot believe that there was a hidden (gem) single in front of our eyes this whole time.
Omg this is so goooood
Absolute banger and a life altering experience under certain circumstances. Thank you for taking me on this journey.
Telling my kids this was Sabrina Carpenter.
LMFAO
If they like it, tell them who it really is!!!
That is an insult to mica lol
Cringe, there’s literally no comparison
dont insult magdalena bay like that 😔
This needs to win song of the year or something holy shit
That piano is sooooo 80s
this song sounds like the first day of summer after finals
I'd watch a whole movie like this.
They hearted the comment movie album confirmed
I hope they make a movie for this album! At least, that we know what happened to farm girl and alien 😢
A movie album would be awesome
Right. This aesthetic is so nostalgic but somehow also very new. It’s giving dark fantasy/scifi.
It kinda seems like they might be making one tbh
