POOR BAMBI DROP HOT NEW NOISE PUNK ANTHEM “THIS ONE IS FOR FREE”

Poor Bambi are a rollicking new punk-infused noise rock juggernaut coming straight out of Stavanger, Norway, and they’re kicking off the year with the kind of song that grabs you by the collar and doesn’t let go. Their latest single, “This One Is For Free,” clocks in at just over two minutes, but it’s absolute chaos in the best way. There’s no easing into it. The band wastes zero time, packing every second with madcap energy, infectious jangly guitars, and pummeling drums that feel tailor-made for a sweaty, packed floor. Front and center are Sarah Hestness’ unmistakable vocal shrieks, cutting through the mix with a raw urgency that feels both unhinged and completely controlled. Beneath the dance-floor-ready momentum and catchy hooks lurk some of the gnarliest walls of guitar feedback and noisy bliss you’re likely to hear all year, adding bite and texture without ever killing the groove. It’s loud, fast, messy, and wildly fun. If you’ve got a pulse and any love at all for guitars pushed to their breaking point, Poor Bambi are a band you absolutely need to keep on your radar.
