Untitled With Drums have released a second single from their upcoming sophomore album, Made Flesh. The song “Shame” is accompanied by a music video and “channels frustration and a sharp sense of injustice.” The music video for “Shame” was directed by Angélique Delarbre, and co-edited by Martin Le Borgne.

The band says:

‘Shame’ is about injustice, insolence and the stark observation that while so many of us are consumed by spirals of remorse and regret, others seem entirely immune and thriving without consequence. A theme that echoes the album’s broader thread of truly facing what we feel and acknowledging how deeply these flaws are woven into our core identity. ‘Shame’ is addressed to those who, for once in their lives, would do better to share that burden with the rest of us.

Made Flesh as an album is a “free-flowing exploration of the human psyche.” The album deals with “the ego, denial, toxicity and faith without coming to any easy resolutions.” “Shame”, particularly, looks outward to those who “move through the world unburdened by the weight that quietly crushes everyone else.”

Untitled With Drums have been together since 2014. The band released their debut album Hollow in 2020, just days before their native France entered its first COVID lockdown. The album took the band to the stages of Hellfest, London’s Desertfest and the Nuits de Fourviere festival, where they opened for the Deftones and Baroness.
