Infected Mushroom Announce 25-Year Anniversary Album, Unveil First Single "A Cookie From Space"
Celebrating their 25th anniversary, psytrance pioneers Infected Mushroom have announced new album, IM25. Kicking off the record today, the tandem released their first single, “A Cookie From Space,” in collaboration with Israeli compatriot Bliss.
“A Cookie From Space” is a 10-minute-long endeavor, taking fans on a gripping journey through Infected Mushroom's prismatic sound design. Embodying a trip through the galaxy, the duo perfectly balance psychedelic highs with electric guitar licks and otherworldly synths.
"The title comes from the lyrics which say, 'A cookie from space is melting your face,'" explained Infected Mushroom in statement. "Bliss wrote it, and when someone has a mullet from space, you don’t ask for the meaning, you just sit in awe of the inspiration that flows from its wondrous nature."
