"Imaginal Disk, the sophomore album from acclaimed duo Magdalena Bay written and produced in full by Mica Tenenbaum and Matthew Lewin, was released August 23 via Mom+Pop Music. Written mostly from sketches begun during gaps in touring and recorded at the band’s home studio in Los Angeles, Imaginal Disk keeps one foot firmly in the future while putting a fresh spin on the recent past, drawing on an eclectic list of inspirations such as Star Trek: The Next Generation, Jean-Paul Sartre’s plays, The Beatles, Lacanian psychoanalysis, In Rainbows and more. The Imaginal Disk visual universe follows the story of True—played by the band’s Mica Tenenbaum—as she learns what it means to be human after receiving a consciousness upgrade in the form of an 'imaginal disk' inserted into her forehead. Riffing on the real idea of imaginal discs in nature—wherein a caterpillar dissolves itself into a liquid form before reshaping itself into a butterfly—the album cheekily interrogates the existential questions that arise when pondering the nature of human consciousness." - Mom + Pop
