Bugeye release single ‘Wake Up’!
"...a powerful slice of disco-punk..."
- Team Rock
“...a riotous collection of songs...”
- Gay Times
“...resonates with the edgy euphoria of sleater-kinney...”
- The Revue
“...the soulful fierceness of Gossip and the craft and meodies of Sleater-Kinney.”
- God Is In The TV
Having made a splash in 2016, disco-punk three piece Bugeye have just released their new single, Wake Up, out now via Marwoo Records and available to buy on iTunes and stream on Spotify .
The brand new eye-opening video for Wake Up is an animated video by Philippe Blaine, featuring cage dancing politicians who bear more than a passing resemblance to Theresa May and Nigel Farage! It premiered on Team Rock and you can watch it via the band's YouTube channel.
The track premiered on God Is In The TV and is now available to stream via the band's Soundcloud page.
Taking inspiration from 70’s punk and political movements of the time, fused with a modern DIY attitude, Bugeye take aim at the current social and political unrest sweeping the world, using their music as a call to arms, encouraging people to support one another in the fight for a brighter future. Elements of the riot grrrl sound that usurped the male dominated indie-rock scenes of the 90’s are flavoured with a sprinkling of the kind of upbeat indie-disco sound that made the likes of Le Tigre one of the most respected bands of their era.
Bugeye have dedicated Wake Up to DIY collectives fighting to make a difference in their local communities such as The Zine UK for their unstoppable support for up and coming talent, This Feeling for creating a much needed buzz to help keep rock music alive in this country, The Music Trust for their #fightback campaigns against music venue closures, Loud Women for pushing forward the fight of women in music, Northern Exposure and all collective communities striving for positive change around the world.
The band, who are made up of Angela Martin (Vox, Guitar), Paula Snow (Bass) and Jack Houston (Drums), formed in the late 90’s playing at some of London’s most notable venues; taking in The Astoria to Wembley and everything in between. Having returned from their hiatus in 2015, Bugeye played a number of shows in and around London before releasing their EP Never Let You Go in 2016. The wait was worthwhile with Bugeye picking up support from Gay Times, The Revue, God Is In The TV, Team Rock and Steve Lamacq’s BBC Radio 6 show.

- The RevueLondon based electro-trash, riot grrrl rock band Bugeye have today released their wonderful new EP, Never Let You Go, out now via Repeat Records/Badger Recording Co and available to buy on iTunes.
The EP is a quirky, dramatic, offbeat and intensely groovy record taking inspiration from 90's and early 00's female fronted alt-rock bands and is available to stream exclusively on Gay Times Magazine. Lead single and title track Never Let You Go wouldn’t be out of place blaring from the Twede’s Cafe jukebox made famous in Twin Peaks, accompanied of course by a slice of cherry pie and a “Damn fine cup ‘o coffee!”. The video for the single, which was directed by Emma Nathan, who directed Suddenly by Anna Calvi and explores themes of domestic abuse, premiered on God Is In The TV and is available to watch now via the band's YouTube channel.
The single was streamed exclusively on The Revue and is also available to listen to now via Bugeye's Soundcloud page.
Having first formed in the late 90’s supporting the likes of The Cranberries at Wembley, Bugeye reformed last year after a series of events drew them back together. The result of these cosmic events, is an EP that not only hints at what could have been, but clears the path for the talented three-piece to fulfil their undoubted potential. Bugeye draws parallels with a number of the defining indie rock bands of the late 90’s/early noughties such as Sleater-Kinney, Le Tigre and Gossip as they pursue, with a great deal of success, the ultimate rock and roll sound. Blending cherry-liqueur lyrics, bubblegum-kneecap bass electrics, goth-heavy drum compactions and high-rise guitar sculptures, Bugeye have created a beautifully, unapologetic riot grrrl-inspired record that is both notable for it’s contemporary sound as much as it is for it’s throwback qualities.
Comprising Angela Martin (Vox, Guitar), Paula Snow (Bass) and Jack Houston (Drums), the trio have reintroduced themselves to the live London music scene with a number of recent gigs around the city and beyond. However, the band are now just hitting their stride with ‘Disco Dancer’ having been released as a free download, the release of official single and title track Never Let You Go and the EP itself now officially out.
Never Let You Go EP by Bugeye is out now via Repeat Records/Badger Recording Co and available to buy on iTunes.

To mark the announcement of their new record the band are giving away the thumping opening track 'Disco Dancer' which is free to download now via the Bugeye Soundcloud page.
