We’re pleased to bring you the premiere of Freddy Fudd Pucker’s music video for his song “Good Times” (watch it below).
Open Doors was released in collaboration with Rebel High Records and Round Dog Records (The Murderburgers, Wonk Unit, Rational Anthem). It follows Freddy’s acclaimed 2015 release, Hourglass Wine (Monkey Records / Ramones Museum Records).
The album can now be streamed and purchased (physical copies come with a really impressive Zine made by Freddy himself) right here.
Freddy Fudd Pucker commented on the song & video:
‘Good Times’ is a confused rant. It’s a peep inside a mind that is in the process of decoding too much information. Trying to turn this information into something that can actually be used in a constructive way. This is easier said than done, when the dominant culture of modern civilisation is a suicidal madness.
The video involves multiple versions of the same character battling with each other, superimposed over a collection of footage of the world’s bioluminescent creatures. Apparently over 70% of the ocean’s deeper dwelling creatures use some form of bioluminescence and it sure is a strange way to communicate…
About the artist:
Over the last decade, Freddy Fudd Pucker (Tom Young) has built a loyal fan base in true DIY style. He has tirelessly toured New Zealand, Australia, about 42 of the United States, as well as at least 15 European countries. He has thousands of fans around the world and has been listed as an important influence by many artists. He has been invited to perform in hundreds of basements, dive-bars, bedrooms, clubs and festivals performing multiple times at The Fest in the US, Manchester Punk Fest in the UK, and his album release shows included an appearance at Hamburg Booze Cruise in Germany. Freddy has played and toured alongside many world class acts such as Against Me!, Deer Tick, CJ Ramone, The Lillingtons and Royal Republic.
Freddy is fixated on the absurdities of contemporary life in the western world. His lyricism tells personal stories from a world in which we learn more about governments and big business through leaks than press releases. Considering you may be tempted to call Freddy a singer-songwriter, this collection of songs is fast, aggressive and at times brutal. The instrumentation juxtaposes the confusion and human-guilt suggested in the lyrics.
