Dream Nails “celebrate being open to both ecstasy and pain” on “primal” new single ‘The Information’

Dream Nails have shared new single ‘The Information’, a celebration of emotional openness amid a time of “overwhelming” information overload – check it out below.

Emerging from London’s punk scene in 2015, the band made their name sharing fiercely political tracks, with their sound evolving to reflect a more-current optimistic approach.

Made up of Mimi Jasson, Lucy Katz and Anya Pearson, the London-based trio have today (Wednesday September 24) shared the groove-infused track, taken from their upcoming third album ‘You Wish’. It is set to arrive on February 6 2026 via Marshall Records, and you can pre-order/pre-save it here.

“Sometimes the universe calls you up, and you need to make sure the damn phone isn’t on silent and you answer. It will almost certainly be a withheld number,” guitarist Pearson said of the new single.

“In this song,” she continued, “we are imagining what it would be like to feel everything, all at once. We noticed how disassociated and numb we were feeling in reaction to the world being so overwhelming. But in the face of so much struggle, joy truly is an act of resistance. The track is a celebration of staying open to both ecstasy and pain. That’s what being alive truly means to us.”

Drummer Katz explained that the origins of the song started with the concept of downloading “all the information” that was out there.

“Mimi came up with it, and it made us laugh because it sounds so bizarre. How can we remain open to all the accumulated knowledge of humanity without toppling into a full-on psychotropic ego-death?

“The lyric ‘everything flows through me’ refers to ancient ways of being and doing that still exist within each of us”, vocalist Jasson added. “We’re channelling primal forces on this record, and this song is the perfect example of this.”

Accompanying the new track is a video from by LA-based video artist Casey Kauffman, whose work charts a similar existential anxiety about technology.

The band’s self-titled 2020 debut earned a four-star review from NME, with Stephanie Phillips writing that By marrying “their fun-lovin’ musicality with songs that stand up to injustices, Dream Nails rollicking debut will rattle around your head for days on end – for more reason than one.”
