Two Shell Detail New Album Infinite Now, Share Wheezing Single “Thing About You”

The enigmatic London duo return with a tech-infused LP out October 16 via Young, alongside a glitchy two-step track that first surfaced at Dekmantel.

Two Shell’s relationship with clarity has always been strained—and productive. On October 16, the anonymous London duo will release Infinite Now via Young, their first proper studio album since last year’s IIcons. The announcement arrives with “Thing About You,” a wheezing digital two-step track that crept out during their Dekmantel set last summer and now gets an official airing.

True to form, the song feels both synthetic and unnervingly human, its helium vocals and pixelated bass wobbles suggesting a machine trying to replicate intimacy. That friction is by design. A statement from the group claims the album was made “with the latest technology,” while a teaser on Instagram instructs listeners to “turn up the music get lost in the moment don’t think… feel.” It’s a directive that works just as well as a trap.

Infinite Now stretches across ten tracks, including previously shared cuts “The Nightmare,” “Smile,” and “Follow.” The tracklist promises more of their signature drift between deconstructed club forms and pop instincts—though nothing about Two Shell stays fixed. Even their last project, a Bandcamp-only remix of their self-titled 2024 LP rendered as t҉w҉o҉ ҉s҉h҉e҉l҉l҉, has since vanished from the internet. Reps haven’t confirmed why, but the act’s history of sending decoys to Boiler Room sets and interviews suggests deletion is just another playful layer, not a mistake.

With a track called “Technology” sitting at track six, Two Shell seem less interested in solving the puzzle than in watching the rest of us try. Infinite Now arrives as another document from the edge of digital unease.
