Meg Remy has returned with groove-laden jam "Mad As Hell", her new single as U.S. Girls.
The buoyant, retro-pop voyage marries '60s pop and '70s disco - Remy and Emily Pelstring direct the superb accompanying visuals, which mixes "historic, patriotic, and military" footage to mirror the song's themes of pacifism.
This new offering follows Remy's incisive 2015 LP Half Free.
"Mad As Hell" will appear on U.S. Girls' next album, with more news on that coming in the near future.
