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…

Can't Bear This Party have new songs!

Your favourite zany European pop-punkers Can't Bear This Party have just released 4 new songs on their bandcamp and I'm happy to report the songs are as good as always, their accents are just as bad, English still isn't their first language, and they are still as much fun as ever! All of the exclamation marks!!!

Now with 27% more zap and zork!


Songs include:

JohnXmas: Almost an exaggerated pop song (with BREAKDOWNS) about drinking vodka (at least I think that's what he says) with a guy called John Christmas. Oh OH OH oh OH oh....

Raymond Gave Me The Best: The best what?? Fans won't be let down with this, has echoes of So Quarrelsome from the album. With some screamz and nice synth. And THE XYLOPHONE IS BACK <3


I'm Not Your Lolifriend: lolwat? What does that even mean?? Nice fast song to get you going. The most skatepunk song of the four, with some great sing/shout along parts.

Glen: Off the first listen this is my favourite song. All the classic elements of CBTP!: Breakdowns strewn everywhere, breakneck drumming, melodies, complimentary dual vocals, nice guitar-work. I'm happy with this!
