Beyond the immense appreciation the underground music world holds for Immersion — the people within it, their previous projects, and the rich history they carry — there is also deep admiration for their continued presence and artistry. With We Don’t Need Your Validation, they deliver one of their strongest songs to date, paired with a title that says everything it needs to say.
The track is the first single from the upcoming album What Is Lost Will Return, due September 4th, 2026. Drawing heavily from the lineage of Minimal Compact, the song sharpens its post punk edge through driving guitars and tightly wound momentum, while its lyrics hold firmly to a radical, uncompromising spirit.
