The first single from the studio debut / final album from FIGORA, Mad Kow is one of the band's most notorious songs — now more fully realized, formatted into a "single" version, and flanked by the cinematic stomp of Kaiju-Rah.

Mad Kow lyrics:
Your white blood cells rush to defend you,
But you're going insane, insane.
Rendered brain cells rot and distend you
And you're getting irate, irate...
You are all diseased!
Bone meal byproduct of a bovine, you
Cannot tell my the taste, the taste.
Mis-folded protein when they dissect you,
Eaten holes in your brain, your brain;
You are all diseased!
Your white blood cells rush to defend you,
But you're going insane, insane.
High-risk offal blend on the menu
And you know the refrain, refrain:
You are all diseased!
