The chaos is thrilling. The fury is justified. The future is now.
Detroit noise-punk visionaries The Armed are back and more explosive than ever. Following the release of their acclaimed new album, THE FUTURE IS HERE AND EVERYTHING NEEDS TO BE DESTROYED, they’ve just dropped the official video for “Broken Mirror” featuring fellow Detroit brutalists Prostitute — and it’s a jarring, analog-fueled descent into dystopian dread.
🎥 Watch “Broken Mirror” ft. Prostitute
Directed by Rob Shaw and Tony Wolski, the video stitches together analog surveillance aesthetics and aggressive live performance, reflecting “a not-particularly-flattering take on life, love, and culture in 2025.” It’s raw, abrasive, and entirely on-brand for a band that thrives in the uncomfortable.
⚠️ THE FUTURE IS HERE AND EVERYTHING NEEDS TO BE DESTROYED is being hailed as The Armed’s most urgent, visceral album to date:
The Armed’s latest sonic assault is more than just noise—it’s a dissection of modern despair, rage, and disconnection. A cathartic scream into the scrolling void.
