Magdalena Bay talked about their album, Imaginal Disk, in an exclusive interview with The Line of Best Fit that was published on August 13, 2024, revealing the thematic layers of the album, with Mica Tenenbaum stating:
"The way it makes sense in my mind is these layers of meaning… the album within itself is just an exploration of self and consciousness, and is quite personal in some ways. But of course, we love to sprinkle in the sci-fi within the lyrics and narrative and storytelling."
Matthew Lewin said:
“It’s like another interpretation of it. It's not like we’re not doing like Tommy or something where the album is the story and very intrinsically one in the same."
He continued:
"And you could listen to the album like you’re watching the movie. I think for us, the idea is the album exists on its own, as its own piece of art, and then the videos that we’re making are one interpretation of that.”
Imaginal Disk was released on August 23, 2024, through Mom + Pop Music. The album is Magdalena Bay's second studio album, and it was preceded by their debut album, Mercurial World, in 2021.
