Bummer Camp Release New Single "One Bullet"
Queens-based grunge-gaze band Bummer Camp have announced their sophomore album Fake My Death, out May 8th via Trash Casual. To tide us over until then, they've let their lead single "One Bullet" loose with an accompanying music video (dir. Preston Spurlock).
"Climbing up the hill to tumble down," sings frontman Eli Frank on the new track. The song itself seems to do just that, as the simmering verse lifts its lid to give way to the momentum of a chorus that is as melodic as it is thrashing (and a burrowing earworm, might I add).
"One Bullet" is a first look at the record's themes, often centering around the "push-pull of wanting to disappear versus continuing on." Eli explains “You gotta take the good, the bad, the beautiful, the ugly, and roll with it. In my opinion, whether you’re being punched or hugged, feeling something is better than not feeling anything at all.”
Before their upcoming album release on April 3rd, Bummer Camp is playing an exciting show on Sunday, March 22nd at TV Eye. Come early to catch some of Bummer Camp's new songs ahead of release day, and stick around to catch a special guest.
