Mad Bad World's debut single, Weirdo

Mad Bad World, the musical project of Matt Battle, unveils his debut single Weirdo, an indie-psych anthem blending psychedelic, lo-fi, and electronic elements.

Formerly a drummer for Chicano Batman, Matt has crafted a sound that fuses his punk and alternative influences with his current artistic vision. The track features ethereal synths, distorted guitars, and a powerful rhythm section, and is a part of his debut album Mercy Memory.
