Last year, John Dwyer was busy unleashing the latest OSEES album Abomination Revealed At Last<\/a><\/em>, as well as launching the new band Chime Oblivion<\/a> with Bow Wow Wow’s David Barbarossa. But now he’s announcing ZUZAX<\/em>, his first Damaged Bug album since 2020’s Bug On Yonkers<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n “40 or so Damaged Bug tunes from the past seven years were orphaned \/ unfinished, which is pretty rare for me,” the prolific rocker explains, continuing: <\/p>\n I just kept having other things going on & life kept getting in the way. And frankly, the songs were all over the place so I didn\u2019t see a thread in there, but in light of current events in the world, I feel like it\u2019s every artist\u2019s calling to construct personal messages cloaked in moments of escapism. That\u2019s what this record is for me was something to clear the decks a little bit in my studio and relax my mind and keep the wolf from the door. It\u2019s a bit of a joyous\/sad record dealing with hope and forgiveness two things which I hope end up more in my life. It\u2019s abstract and poppy, fried and sugary. <\/p>\n It’s exactly how I feel at the moment fried and skewed. <\/p>\n Good luck out there and I hope this turns off the torrent for you, for a moment.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n Check out the lead single “End Of The War” below.<\/p>\n\n
