Gooseberry, the dynamic trio hailing from the heart of New York City, has just unleashed their latest creation upon the world: the music video for “Kikiyon.” This electrifying piece serves as the leading single from their highly anticipated debut full-length album, “All My Friends Are Cattle,” slated for release on September 6, 2024.
“Kikiyon” encapsulates the raw essence of 90s alternative rock, delivering an intense sonic experience that resonates with nostalgic fervor. From the moment the first chord strikes, listeners are catapulted into a whirlwind of gritty riffs and pulsating rhythms, reminiscent of the iconic sounds that defined a generation.
About the track by Asa Daniels:
“My faith—or something approximating it—may come and go, but in the end, we’re just dirt and worms, so maybe we should spend less time debating the contents of magical bird spit and more time finding community with one another.”
The single is shared alongside it’s music video is a ridiculous lo-fi number directed by Charlie Hull, it is the complete opposite of the heavy material that is lyrically present. “The minute we take ourselves too seriously, we die,” say Daniels.
“”Kikiyon” packs a punch musically, lyrically, and thematically.
It’s angry.
It’s heavy.
We knew we had to match all that weight with a video that brought equal and opposite force.
What better way than with a lo-fi thrasher comedy about magical bird-zombie transformation?”
