Premiere: BullyBones – ‘I Feel Sorry For You’

A ferocious piece of unhinged garage rock...

Imploding in a fit of excessive drug use, hair spray and gothic novels, The Birthday Party's legacy is assured.

Naming themselves after a song by the fateful Australian ex-pats, BullyBones have a lot of live up to.

Thankfully the garage punk quartet just about manage it. Discussing influences, the band recently mused that they span "60 years and several continents".

Truth is, there's an inherent Britishness to what they do, whether it's the Kinks style slash of their guitars or the snotty Lydon-esque vocals.

New single 'I Feel Sorry For You' b/w 'Deadflower Girl' drops on October 27th, two slices of deliciously evil guitar music.

Less florid songcraft and more obnoxious grunts, the band's attitude is matched by their energy and their addiction to prescription ready pop hooks.

Check out 'I Feel Sorry For You' below.

BullyBones play Underbelly, Hoxton Square this Thursday (September 18th) – doors 8pm.
