'Fury was inspired by acknowledging a suppressed crush, and how scary and exciting that can be. Confronting that truth is the most important thing, despite the difficulties, I definitely learned that the hard way. It feels like our most unhinged song yet, I think you can really get that energy from the layers of guitars and doubled bass line.
I wrote the chord progression for Fury during a soundcheck, feeling pretty pent up after a long drive and wanting something entertaining to play. The lyrics also got written in one go right after we recorded the drums, bass, and guitar tracks, so it feels really untampered with to me. Now that I think of it, the synth hook also happened spontaneously while we were recording, with no rehearsed part written. It's nice to have a song tumble out into the world like you're throwing dice, just seeing what you'll get. That's the general life strategy for Mamalarky lately!!!
We were really lucky to work with Ambar Navarro (Cuco, Soccer Mommy, Inner Wave) on our video. She's a really inspiring presence, always so encouraging and fun, extremely hardworking and open to any idea. It was deadly hot outside during the shoot, trying our best to catch flying guitars on a trampoline in this thick sweat. I think you can see in the video how we all got into that super funny almost drunken sun fried mode.
Thank you very much to everyone who listens to and supports our music you make us very haappppppyyyyyy'

Lyrics:
Your eyes changed my life now they’re gone
Rip tide paradise don’t be long
The Hilton and Bill Clinton they make up lies and apologize
We went too far in CD Rom
You’re the only one I let dom
You’re hopeless I’m your hostess
Let’s take a drive if we find the time
