Today, Filth Is Eternal also drop the album’s first single, 'Stay Melted', a front-to-back banger featuring some of singer Lis Di Angelo's most incisive songwriting to date. “To want to injure is human / to want to kill is divine,” they growl over a heavy, driving beat - a lyric that exposes the hypocrisy at the heart of the rise of Christofascism in the U.S. Speaking on the track, the band note, “The world can feel like a total trash fire to the point where we become lethargic. Lethargy makes us our own worst enemy; sometimes you have to kill a thing before you lose yourself to it completely.”

The follow-up to the band's acclaimed 2023 album Find Out, Impossible World was written against a backdrop of accelerating gentrification, unchecked technology, and the slow creep of authoritarianism. The LP confronts life in a present that already feels dystopian. Yet rather than surrendering to despair, Filth Is Eternal push forward with clarity and defiance, asking hard questions about survival, humanity, and resistance in a world increasingly shaped without consent. Sonically, Impossible World balances hardcore urgency with sharpened melody, drawing from punk’s immediacy while pushing toward something more expansive and deliberate.

Formed in 2020, Filth Is Eternal were inspired by the raw, impulsive ethos of punk and from the gate became known for their frenetic live shows played in DIY venues across the country. "Filth has always been about energy at the heart of things since the earliest recordings," Di Angelo says. "We wanted to leave our blood and guts out on the floor," guitarist Brian McClelland adds.

While the band holds fast to the immediacy of punk, Impossible World marks a turning point for FIE. “I think the biggest changes from LP1 to now is that we’ve upped the intention by using more melody, harmony, and singing in general. We’re working with aggression, but moving toward something beautiful and true,” Lis says.

The album features notable collaborations with Blood Brothers' Johnny Whitney, Fall Out Boy's Joe Trohman, Gina Gleason, and Lauren Lavin, alongside the band's use of the FILTH EQ+, a pedal they crafted that helped shape the album's sonic landscape.

Despite some of its heavier subject matter, Impossible World has many soaring moments - dashes of light that overwhelm the senses and give fans a sense of possibility amidst the toils of contemporary living. That ebullient optimism resonates throughout the record, with Lis' voice cutting through melancholia as a beacon lighting what's to come. In hard times the future can feel finite, unreal, but Impossible World reminds us that art has the radical potential to enliven us as we wait out the darkest hours.
