“Bikini Beach unleash »Cursed«! A a raw, high-energy garage punk explosion.”
Bikini Beach return with their seventh album »Cursed«, a relentless fusion of raw garage punk, psychedelic grunge, and surf-infused energy. With unfiltered intensity and anthemic urgency, the trio delivers a short but powerful record that refuses to be ignored.
Praised by Visions Mag for its sheer grit, OX Fanzine for its balance of light and shade, and Metal Hammer for its introspective depth, »Cursed« captures the chaos of our post-pandemic world through a darker, unrelenting lens. Drawing on the raw power of the B-52s, Ramones, and Motörhead, the album surges forward with unstoppable momentum, making its 30-minute runtime feel like an electrifying blur (Betreutes Proggen).
With infectious fuzz, razor-sharp surf guitars, and high-voltage rhythms, »Cursed« is Bikini Beach at their most intense and authentic yet. Experience the rush – out now on all platforms!
