Bunnygrunt at KDHX

When it comes to noisy, giddy, poppy punk, Bunnygrunthas been setting the standard in St. Louis since the early ’90s. “Still Chooglin’ (After All These Beers),” an affectionate sendup of sloppy and speedy two-chord bar rock (if not CCR itself), shows they’ve still got a lot left in the tank.

Bunnygrunt at Stereo Embers

Born in the tweedledum, B&S-addled mid-nineties (their 1995 Action Pants! debut is an aggro-primitivist lost classic of that most precious of canons), St Louis band Bunnygrunt has done what few bands have the guts, gumption, or reckless heart to do any more: they hit the neverending road and ground it out, criss-crossing the frayed ribbons… Continue reading Bunnygrunt at Stereo Embers

Bunnygrunt at Maximum Rock n Roll #387

Never heard of these folks before this gem landed on my desk (so to speak), but sure am real glad to make their acquaintance. Apparently, they’re a sort of legendary (in a very small way) indie-pop/rock band, whose main claim to fame is that one of their songs back in the day (like in the… Continue reading Bunnygrunt at Maximum Rock n Roll #387
