Plush Drop 'Animalistic' Ahead of New Album Mass Hysteria

PLUSH have issued their latest single, "Animalistic", via Pavement Entertainment. The track serves as the primary introduction to the band's sophomore full-length effort, "Mass Hysteria", which is scheduled for a global release on 18 September 2026.

Written by Moriah Formica, Blair Daly and Zac Maloy, "Animalistic" is built on heavy riffs and unapologetic energy. The track explores internal warfare and the necessity of embracing internal rage amidst turmoil. Formica explains that the song aims to capture a "raw, untamed survival instinct," while the wider album explores the aftermath of such a struggle, focusing on the scars left behind after enduring chaos.

With 'Animalistic', we wanted to capture that raw, untamed survival instinct.

To support the new release, the trio will embark on a nationwide "Mass Hysteria" tour starting on 13 August at Mohegan Sun and concluding on 9 October at the Grand Theatre Center for Arts. The tour promises a mix of established hits and a rare preview of new material. For those seeking a closer connection, a VIP Meet-And-Greet is available, featuring an unplugged performance of an unreleased track.

Fans can also secure a "Mass Hysteria" bundle, which includes a dedicated "Animalistic" t-shirt and the choice of either a signed CD or vinyl. The all-female outfit continues their mission to push hard-hitting rock anthems into the modern spotlight with more mature, introspective lyricism.
