WARGASM are back with a brand new track and music video alongside news of their most epic show to date…

Words by Felix Bartlett | July 15, 2025


London-based duo WARGASM have dropped their latest single, โ€˜Small World Syndromeโ€™, marking their second independent release since breaking free from what theyโ€™ve dubbed โ€œthe industry machine.โ€

In their own words: โ€œThey replaced sulphur street lamps with day glow bulbs, they changed the packaging on cigarettes, do you ever feel like thereโ€™s a bit less magic in the world? You wake up one day and the venues, the cafes, the cinemas you loved have been shut down. The things that make the world special are bulldozed by greed and homogenisation. Reality gets smaller by the day. Maybe the worldโ€™s not smaller, thereโ€™s just less in it. This is a little song about that. Your feelings are better out than in.โ€

The release comes paired with a music video that leans into surrealism, shot as a collaboration between WARGASM and director Haris Nukem. Picture a back-alley lobotomy clinic, deceivingly jacked old ladies lurking on park benches, and frontwoman Milkie Way running for political office, itโ€™s chaotic, bizarre, and, as the band points out, somehow not as surreal as the world weโ€™re all actually living in right now.
