Viagra Boys - Shrimp Sessions

Viagra Boys have just released a full concert video!

Sweden's own punk band share a long video of them performing songs from their latest album "Street Worms". The band members are all unique in their own way, but as a group they no doubt emit a special kind of energy. Their latest video portrays a concert video in which they share their interesting performances in a venue that looks like a warehouse. Their orginal post punk sound has intrigued many music lovers.

At just nine tracks long, Street Worms is a brilliant and concise portrait of who this band are. It may have been released on YEAR0001 - the same Swedish label as Yung Lean and Bladee - but Viagra Boys are worlds apart from those Auto-Tuned sad rappers. Instead, the album is a brawling collection of scuzzy, yet precise street blues and freaky, often twisted imagery. “I put a towel in a bag, with formaldehyde / I put that shit up to my mouth, and I get really high” sings Sebastian on their track “Shrimp Shack.” He delivers these words with a single nihilistic raised eyebrow - never totally serious, but a little bit melancholy at the same time, just like he is in person.

Hunnypot Approved!

  • MILLY - "Bittersweet Mary"
    MILLY - "Bittersweet Mary" “I think about death all the time.” Almost ironic for someone called Brendan Dyer. Principal songwriter and singer of the indie rock, shoegaze band MILLY, Dyer lays his hushed vocals over a bed of heavy guitar riffs while singing about both love and death. In their freshly released third LP… Read more

  • DREAM THEATER, NIGHT TERROR
    DREAM THEATER, NIGHT TERROR When the video for "Night Terror" was released, I did myself the injustice of reading a ton of related social media posts prior to listening to the track out right. I saw everything from 'Best Song Ever' to 'Total Disappointment' and everything in between. Who would have thought a new… Read more
