Our Take

In his latest release under the moniker Damaged Bug, Thee Oh Sees frontman John Dwyer takes us down a sonic rabbit hole with "Bunker Funk." This album is a kaleidoscopic journey through a dystopian realm where psychedelic synths and glitchy beats collide in a whirlwind of experimental chaos.

From the moment the pulsating bassline of "Structure Image Approach" kicks in, you know you're in for a wild ride. Dwyer's distorted vocals weave in and out of the hypnotic tapestries of sound, creating an otherworldly atmosphere that is equal parts disorienting and exhilarating.

Tracks like "Humpty Dumpty" and "The Mirror" showcase Dwyer's ability to seamlessly blend elements of punk, new wave, and electronica into a cohesive and infectious sound. The result is a collection of songs that are as unpredictable as they are addictive.

But it's not all just sonic madness in "Bunker Funk." Dwyer's keen ear for melody shines through on tracks like "Unmanned Scanner" and "The Cryptologist," where shimmering guitar lines and catchy hooks provide moments of respite amidst the sonic chaos.

Overall, "Bunker Funk" is a bold and audacious statement from one of the most innovative musicians in the industry today. With its genre-defying sound and fearless experimentation, this album is a must-listen for anyone craving something truly out of the ordinary. Don't sleep on Damaged Bug – trust me, you'll thank me later.

So buckle up, dear reader, and prepare to be led down the rabbit hole of Damaged Bug's twisted sonic universe.
