Empowered by their euphoric, eclectic punk-rock outlook, American outfit 95 Bulls have come a long way since their 2022 debut album ‘GO HOME’. Gearing up for a US West Coast tour later this month, the fierce creatives are also slowly unveiling new music. ‘Well Wisher’ is the strongest evidence of that; a slice of psychedelic distortions and classic rock charisma, the track anticipates 95 Bulls’ second LP ‘Canadian Nightclub’, expected on June 20th.
Stepping into the American band’s colourful, nostalgia-tinged universe is an experience like no other. There are some familiar traits – such as the roaring drums and pungent guitar riffs – but also some witty additions, like a Theremin-flavoured synth tone, which might also be some kind of vintage organ. Whichever way you look at it, there’s no denying that ‘ Well Wisher’ is incredibly striking and boundary-pushing, commanding the listeners’ attention with its fresh take on a rather nostalgic formula.
The band’s previous single ‘Gin Shot’ confirms our positive expectations towards ‘Canadian Nightclub’, with fast-paced classic rock blurring into all-out psychedelic energy. Speaking about the ethos behind the LP, 95 Bulls explain: “‘Canadian Nightclub’ harkens back to the classic rock and roll concept album with a modern ear to the ground. We start our journey following our reluctant radioshow host Pancho, who stumbled upon the record in a bin by his flat: The listener shares the experience of a faded demented disc jockey’s journey from cynical confusion to wonderment, as the album crescendos from the blast off ‘It was Rough’ to the bombastic conclusion ‘Blown Out’.”
