Boston’s Vundabar are sharing their new music video for “Chop” via Interview Magazine. The clip captures the band’s skittish surf punk / indie centric glam-pop brilliance while highlighting their goofy sense of fun that embodies the true spirit of the band. Creating a decidedly different sound than their Boston peers, Vundabar have earned a reputation as one of the cities absolute best and hardest working up-and-coming bands.
Brandon Hagen, Vundabar vocalist/guitarist shared, “The concept for the music video for “Chop” was meant to mimic the songs concept. The chorus of “Chop” was written in the style of a 60’s love song, but the lyrical content sharply constants the musical stylings. It sounds like a love song, but is lyrically the anti-thesis to a love song and there’s an irony in that. This is the idea I brought to George Burghall, who directed. I wanted to bring the same irony of the song to the video and so we present ourselves as these glamourous and decadent characters, clad in chains and turtlenecks. “

Vundabar, the seriously infectious Boston jangle pop trio have built a strong reputation throughout Boston as one of the city’s best up-and-coming bands, constantly touring and playing shows, and while they are fairly young (members are all between 20 and 21), their music is reminiscent of a band that has spent countless hours perfecting their sound.Gawk is the type of album that bubbles with soulful sun-drenched bliss, off kilter indie rock melodies, gorgeous harmonies and an endless supply of enormous hooks. East coast indie rock with a West coast soul… one listen and you’re hooked. The band are heading out on a US tour beginning tomorrow, check out all the dates below.
