“With such fresh textures the song is hard to ignore and to anyone with an ear for perfectly noisy tracks with steady thriving percussion keeping everything in line but tipping on the edge, this is a joy to listen to."

Buddy Junior release perfectly lo-fi whirlwind single, ‘stars****’.

San Francisco based Buddy Junior, the recording project of Jared Lenar (they/them) and long time collaborator Harvey Forgets (they/them), may have just perfected the swirling modern lo-fi sound that was raised on shoegaze and alternative rock. With such fresh textures the song is hard to ignore and to anyone with an ear for perfectly noisy tracks with steady thriving percussion keeping everything in line but tipping on the edge, this is a joy to listen to. Buddy Junior dives into many different subgenres of alternative rock, careful not to stay too long in any particular one. Their sound is united with an ear towards reverby-loudness and lyrics that focus on the emotional self.

‘Stars****’ is so rich in layers and atmosphere it’s hard to not get lost in its spiraling waves of sound.
