London based four-piece Bitch Hunt recently signed to Reckless Yes (Fightmilk, Captain Handsome, Mark Morris). They identify as a queer/trans alt-rock band. Let’s check out what they have been up to:
Their debut EP is available on Bandcamp.
Spaceman
Punk has been in the ascendancy within rock music for some time now so, to suggest it needs a reset may seem odd. It does! Too many bands are idling by talking over their music, few are landing any real blows.
On ‘Spaceman’, Bitch Hunt have renewed punk’s vigour with their stripped-back garage-punk style. Dirty lo-fi riffs demand your attention before The Strokes-esque solo makes you beg for it!
(The Verve like video is simply hilarious!)
Armadillo
With the joy of The Buzzcocks and the charm of Jilted John, this track will awaken many teenagers to the embrace of punk.
It’s a John Hughes movie for the 21st century accompanied by the sound of best friends finding a musical release. The guitars are sharp, life-affirming bullets of love that provide angst and anxiety a place to escape to.
