The ever‑eccentric dark cabaret metal collective Tardigrade Inferno has revealed another glimpse into their forthcoming third studio album, Hush. The new single, "Dead Fish Smile", marks the fourth advance track from the record, which is set for release on 5 March.
With Hush, Tardigrade Inferno continue to refine and expand their unmistakable sonic identity. The album captures the band’s theatrical spirit—an interplay of sharp songwriting, sardonic lyricism, and their unmistakable visual flair. While their studio work has always carried a strong personality, the group’s true essence has long been defined by the immersive chaos and charisma of their live performances.
That energy was immortalised in June 2025 with the release of Made In Hell, an atmospheric and emotionally charged live album that showcased the band’s raw connection with their audience. Hush channels that same intensity, merging it with meticulous studio craftsmanship. "Dead Fish Smile" stands as yet another testament to this synthesis.
The accompanying music video for "Dead Fish Smile" was created by Evgeny Zimin, Philip Shestakov, and Pavel Serov, delivering a visual experience as striking as the track itself. You can watch the video below. The previously released single "Deadly Fairytales" remains available HERE. Link

"I like to call our music suicide pop, because our songs are pretty easy to listen to, but the topics are very negative and quite dark. It's pop, but negative pop." - Simone Salvatori
"Art isn't meant to always be pretty and make us feel comfortable and good about ourselves. I'm not afraid to broach difficult emotions and to express the beautiful ones too." - Martin Saint
