"Mad World" was a 1982 song by the British band Tears for Fears. It was the band's third single release and it most notably was covered by Michael Andrews and Gary Jules for the cult classic film Donnie Darko in 2001
Black Walls was taken from the Portland band’s long-awaited new LP, Dear Tommy which almost didn't see the light of day thanks to Johnny Jewel, the project’s label head and production guru.
