Bad Rabbits - American Nightmare (November 21, 2016) Album • Page 2

Yeah this is their current band photo. They used to be a five-piece.

 

idk what's their deal haha, as long as they don't pull a Glassjaw it's fine. have you ever heard this bside ? there was a studio video showing them recording it before American Love came out, and I didn't know they had finally released it

also, this article is from a lifetime ago but there's some stuff about the unreleased debut full lenght : Bad Rabbits: Harmonizing Talent and Indie Spirit | IAtv | Indie Ambassador

 

From that quote it sounds like stuff with Teddy Riley didn't work out because of some contract they signed with him. Bummer.

 

holy shit this sounds awesome!

 

damn, Mysterious and fotjob or whatever, are both fuckin cool

 

This album is so long island to me haha. I get really strong Glassjaw/EOTC vibes from it

 

Two more funkier songs yet to be released

 

Damn this is really great. Differently a different vibe from them, while still keeping prominent elements of funk and soul.

 

Wow, this album is not at all what I expected. Definitely enjoying it on first listen, but damn if this isn't the darkest thing they've done

 

I think it's really striking how the Teddy Riley produced singles they released in the last few years mostly showed them moving in an even more poppy, slickly produced direction with some of the rough edges sanded out... and then they moved in the complete opposite direction with this new album and made an emotional, angry rock record. Definitely a very conscious move in a different direction than they were headed, and I love that.

 

So far it reminds me a lot of their The Eclectic Collective stuff.

 

I'll have to check out that stuff then

 

It seems to me that they have been making this album and the Teddy one side-by-side, and I could totally see how they are meant to be two sides to the same band

 

True. I hope we get more of both.

 

Can we talk about the cover art? I love it. I will be listening to this tonight.

 

"Stalker" is such a great intro track.

 

I loved the earlier stuff..

going to check this out now.

 

yup i'm definitely enjoying this. what a cool band.

 

Unsurprisingly, this album's pretty sick.

 

Can't stop listening to 'Original'. Dirty and beautiful at the same time. Such a great song.

 

Ugh darker!?

Their whole career trajectory is disappointing. Stick Up Kids was the most excited I've been about a band's future in forever.

 

But, but.... the Teddy Riley songs!!!

 

I still have to listen, but your post just deflated all my excitement.

 

No deflation!!

 

Whoah. This is different. There are parts where the guitars sound like Thursday or something on "Clouds"
