Bugs – Old Youth Feeling

Bugs’ superpower is the ability to casually drop grinalong singalongs, and this is another of their finest. Brimful of their usual energy, it’s a guaranteed pit pleaser and sounds almost exactly like the best night out you ever had. Lyrically though, there’s another level at work – the whole song may sound like joy in a bottle, but it’s also an unnervingly accurate analysis of the power, futility, and tragedy of nostalgia for times lost. If you’ve found yourself hunting around for the sweet spot between ginormous guitar pop and Proust’s madeleine, then today has all the makings of your lucky day.
