Can't Bear This Party have a slightly bewildering new song



So, CBTP released four really good songs that were set to be on a new album. Then they broke up. Then they got back together. Then they released this song, called Lil Bowotami. 

We up to speed?  Ok. Now. WTF am I listening to?



It starts off like a NES version of the Ting Tings, frolics through some kind of bizarre 8bit pop carnival, then explodes into an actual punk-related song at 00.50 seconds. Then there’s some (presumably fake) trumpets and a hook from an older song. 

Is this what happens when bands stop giving a fuck? Is this the future of progressive easycore? I think I like it!? Who is Damien Botami anyway? I have so many questions…

    1. I'm intrigued about the songwriting process!

      How does your songwriter pitch a song like this? "So I think it should start off 8 bit style, with a sing song rap type part, then it transforms into a sweet pop punk song, then we add trumpets, then..." etc

      Is that a real trumpet? Who is this Damian guy and what are the lyrics about? This is turning into an interview...

      Yo, Quentin, lets do an interview!
