Artillery Saints isn’t here to soothe anyone, and “A Flurry Of Furies” makes that clear within seconds. Dropped January 19, 2026, the new single from Scottish musician Ally McKenzie, popularly known as Artillery Saints, feels like standing in the middle of a city while alarms, headlines, and bad decisions all blur together at once. It’s tense, sharp, and deliberately uncomfortable.

McKenzie has described the track as a response to the violence and moral rot of the times, and you can hear that intent baked into every layer. The lyrics don’t offer solutions or soft landings. Instead, they throw images at you like broken glass, unsettling, ironic, and sometimes darkly funny in a way that makes you pause and rethink what you’re hearing. This isn’t protest music in the traditional sense; it’s more like a document of collapse.
“A Flurry Of Furies” plays like a short film. Hypnotic basslines stalk underneath fractured guitar hits, while electronic textures flicker in and out like faulty streetlights. There’s a constant sense of pressure not loud for the sake of it, but heavy in mood. It’s confrontational without being chaotic, controlled without feeling cold.

The track also gives a strong preview of what’s coming on Glimpse, Artillery Saints’ upcoming 2026 album. Building on earlier projects Maneki-Neko and Fixed Grin Of A Wallpaper Star, McKenzie pushes deeper into avant-pop and electronic spaces, folding in organic elements and left-field flourishes that keep the sound unpredictable. You might catch shades of Brian Eno, Magazine, or John Foxx, but this never slips into nostalgia. “A Flurry Of Furies” doesn’t try to escape reality, it stares straight at it. It’s bold, unsettling, and easily one of Artillery Saints’ most urgent releases so far.
