More about: Tropical Fuck Storm

Ahead of Deep States, their new album due out next week on Joyful Noise (20 August), Tropical Fuck Storm have released another cut with ‘Bumma Sanger’. It’s all about the cabin fever we all experienced during various lockdowns this year, with Tropical Fuck Storm’s weird and wonderful twist.

This isn’t one of those nostalgic, inspirational, things-will-get-better lockdown songs we’ve been subject to throughout the past year. Instead, Tropical Fuck Storm tap into that very specific kind of insanity that you experienced around Lockdown 3, around the time you did something weird with your hair.

The feverish, fervent guitars don’t exactly make ‘Bumma Sanger’ an easy listen, but you can easily relate to lyrics like “this was supposed to be a summer banger / but it’s just another bummer sanger / how you going with the cabin fever”. Singer Gareth Liddiard explains the track in a typical Tropical Fuck Storm way:

"You can’t go anywhere or do anything during a lockdown but I was watching TV during a seance with Winston Churchill and an advert made by an interstellar travel agency came on offering an affordable holiday to a tropical beachside resort on a planet in a different galaxy.”
