Siiickbrain – has announced her sophomore album ‘Houndstooth’ + release new single ‘Murkey Water’

SIIICKBRAIN has officially announced her sophomore album, HOUNDSTOOTH, will be arriving 3rd June 2026 via NOWHERE Recordings in partnership with Pale Chord/Rise Records BMG. Alongside this exciting announcement, SIIICKBRAIN has released the second single from the album, “MURKY WATER” with an accompanying music video. The new release arrives on the heels of SIIICKBRAIN’s hard-charging, dancefloor-rooted single “PALO SANTO, adding to what is already becoming a monumental run for the artist, who was also featured on Skrillex’s latest EP Kora.

HOUNDSTOOTH finally feels like I have found the sound I’ve been searching for since I started making music. The honest and personal lyrics on certain tracks along with the through line of who I am and where I come from truly just feels like the album is the best representation of myself that I could’ve made. The high energy on the production side really shows that through the challenges that everyone faces in life, I’ve found the best coping mechanism to simply be finding the fun again. There’s a way to be honest and process thoughts and emotions while still living a high vibrational lifestyle and I think I finally figured it out,” SIIICKBRAIN says. 

MURKY WATER” further expands the sonic identity of what is shaping up to be the creative maverick’s most refined body of work to date. The track begins with a hypnotic synth arpeggio and distorted kick drum, laying the foundation for a restrained vocal delivery from SIIICKBRAIN before the energy builds into a trap-influenced breakdown. There, she delivers a verse reflecting on the balance between fragility and ego as she confronts a self-aware god complex — a form of resistance in a world where her downfall can inspire others just as much as her success.
