Ahead of the release of their new album It’s Inside You, out this Friday, 7th June, via Relapse Records, CANDY have shared the single 'Dreams Less Sweet.' The new single, which references experimental outfit Psychic T.V.’s album of the same name, follows 'You Will Never Get Me' featuring Justice Tripp (Angel Du$t, Trapped Under Ice), which Revolver described as “a post-genre fusion of nu-dustrial menace, with thick and meaty guitar riffs slapping against fast-whirled turntabling and cavernous kick-drumming,” 'Love Like Snow' featuring MIRSY and mmph, which arrived with a video directed by CANDY’s Michael Quick, and 'eXistenZ,' to which The FADER stated, “the jewel at the bottom of the 81-second bone cruncher is, essentially, ‘follow your dreams.’”

CANDY will celebrate the release of It’s Inside You with a show at Salty’s Beach Bar in Lake Como, New Jersey on 6th July with Everybody Gets Hurt, Division of Mind, Final Resting Place, Sector, and Last Man Out. Tickets are available HERE. Additionally next month, CANDY will perform 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.

It’s Inside You expands upon CANDY’s lauded brand of metal-warping, digitally-coated hardcore across 12 tracks produced by Quick along with Uniform’s Ben Greenberg and mixed by Kurt Ballou at God City Studios (NAILS, High on Fire, The Armed). It’s Inside You is a manifesto of kinship and inner strength. The album serpentines its way through the dark and bright corners of the human psyche. While nihilism and the pains of the modern world still exist on the album, It’s Inside You sees the band turn toward tenderness more than ever before. It’s Inside You creates an energising and empowering atmosphere, in which seeking connections with oneself and with others is central. While constructing the album, CANDY opened up and invited collaborators — like Aaron Melnick (Integrity), Justice Tripp (Angel Du$t, Trapped Under Ice), David Gagliardi (Trash Talk), MIRSY (Fleshwater’s Marisa Shriar) and mmph (Sae Heum Han) — who all helped enrich and further define the band’s already 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.
