Mimi Barks has released the new single and video “Jericho”, the second track revealed from the upcoming EP “Dreamstate Of Fear”, scheduled for release on July 24.

The release follows the previously unveiled track “Dreamstate Of Hell”, continuing the rollout surrounding the new EP as previously covered by Rockum in Mimi Barks Shares 'Dreamstate Of Hell' Video and Announces U.S. Tour Ahead of New EP.

The artist continues developing what she describes as a “doom trap” sound, combining elements of alternative metal, industrial music, trap, and modern rock.

“Jericho” centers on themes of internal collapse, transformation, and personal reconstruction.

According to Mimi Barks, the song reflects the process of dismantling false identities and confronting internal conflict in order to create space for change.

The video was filmed in Bordeaux and Paris by director NineNine99 and Phenix Agency, whose previous visual work includes collaborations connected to Ho99o9, Boys Noize, Kalash, and Gambi.

“Dreamstate Of Fear” will be released through DEATHKISS Records, the artist’s own imprint.

The EP continues the darker and heavier direction introduced in recent material while maintaining the hybrid structure that combines metal, industrial textures, and trap-oriented production.

Physical editions include limited LP, tape, and CD versions.

Born in Germany and shaped through the underground scenes of Berlin and London, Mimi Barks developed a musical identity rooted in the intersection of punk, techno, hip hop, industrial music, and metal.

Her performances and recordings have continued evolving through releases including the album “This Is Doom Trap” and reinterpretations such as her 2025 version of “Crawling” by Linkin Park.

The artist has also appeared at festivals including Download Festival, Wacken Open Air, Bloodstock, Boomtown, and 2000 Trees.

Within “Jericho,” Mimi Barks continue expanding the darker direction introduced through recent material while preparing the release of “Dreamstate Of Fear”.
