WITH a new album, Heavy Male Insecurity, just around the corner, Norwegian power-pop punkers Death By Unga Bunga have released a video for another come-hither, “Egocentric”, which you can watch below.

It’s a bit of a banger, with that trademark DBUB attention to fuzz and melody, all wrapped up in basketball court shenanigans.

And there’s intelligence at play too, as the band say: “The egocentric mind has no empathy for others and their opinions. Something you’d expect from a child, but it’s often still the case for an insecure grown man.

“It’s OK to be selfish sometimes, but it doesn’t mean you have to be a complete dick all the time.”

Coming atcha live and direct from Moss, an hour down-fjord from Oslo, Death by Unga Bunga take their name from an album by US punks The Mummies, and formed out of auditions held in singer-guitarist Sebastian Ulstad Olsen’s garage.

Fun, intelligent, melodic punk: what’s not to approve of?

Death By Unga Bunga’s Heavy Male Insecurity will be released by Jansen Records on February 12th on digital download, CD, trad black, limited macho pink and super-limited erotic picture disc vinyl; you can place your order now, here.

Follow Death by Unga Bunga at their website, on Facebook, on Twitter and on Instagram.
