Magdalena Bay - Imaginal Disk

Imaginal Disk is the second studio album by the American musical duo Magdalena Bay, released in August 2024 via Mom + Pop Records.

Imaginal Disk is a concept album centred on the fictional character True. After a compact disc-shaped object, homonymous with the album, is implanted into her forehead in order to create her ideal self, her body rejects it and she relearns the meaning of being human. Recurring lyrical themes include self-exploration and consciousness.

Musically, Imaginal Disk is a synth-pop, dance-pop, and electronic rock album. It was supported by four singles "Death & Romance", "Image", "Tunnel Vision", and "That's My Floor". Three of the singles were accompanied by Peter Gabriel influenced music videos that follow the narrative of the album, with the vocalist portraying True.

Upon its release, the album received acclaim from music critics. Most reviewers praised its style and considered it an improvement from their debut album, Mercurial World (2021). Imaginal Disk appeared on several year-end lists of the best music released in 2024 and commercially reached the Top 40 in Australia.

This double album 2LP record set is on black vinyl housed in a gatefold sleeve with a printed insert, pressed in the US via Mom + Pop.
