If there’s one thing we’ll always fall for, it’s a shouty, punky vocal over a gloriously chaotic electro track. 8485’s ‘Buzzbands’ delivers exactly that — a collision of electroclash attitude, LCD Soundsystem swagger and Le Tigre-style riot grrrl bite.
A sharp little takedown of the never-ending chase for cultural relevance, Buzzbands feels like a club track having an existential crisis — all jagged synths, sarcastic hooks and a delivery that demands your attention. It’s messy, fun and completely in on the joke.
‘Buzzbands is a song about the cult of cultural relevance. It’s also my application for an executive position,’ says 8485.
