Our Take

In his latest outing as Damaged Bug, John Dwyer has once again proven himself to be a master of the weird and wonderful. Hubba Bubba is a mind-bending journey through the outer reaches of experimental music, with Dwyer's idiosyncratic production style and off-kilter vocals leading the way.

From the opening track "Structure Image Approach," it's clear that Dwyer is not afraid to push boundaries and defy expectations. The song's hypnotic groove and eerie synth lines set the tone for the rest of the album, which veers between moments of psychedelic bliss and dissonant chaos.

Tracks like "Slay The Priest" and "The Night Shopper" showcase Dwyer's knack for creating catchy hooks with a dark edge, while "Loper" and "Ugly Gamma" delve into more ambient and atmospheric territory. Throughout it all, Dwyer's distinct voice cuts through the mix like a sharp blade, delivering cryptic lyrics with a sense of urgency and intensity.

Hubba Bubba is not for the faint of heart, but for those willing to take the plunge, it offers a thrilling and immersive listening experience. Dwyer's sonic palette is as colorful as ever, with layers of synths, guitars, and drum machines creating a dense and rich tapestry of sound.

In a musical landscape that often prizes conformity over creativity, Damaged Bug stands out as a beacon of originality and innovation. Hubba Bubba is a testament to Dwyer's unique vision and uncompromising artistry, and a must-listen for anyone with a taste for the avant-garde.
