April 28, 2025 | Review | buffaBLOG
Music blog buffaBLOG featured Billy Bonbon's self-titled track, calling the six-minute journey "a rare occurrence" and praising the indie three-piece for letting "their instrumentals breathe and take center stage."
"Post-Punk Mouthfeel" Sliding into "Lo-Fi Groove"
Buffa Blog described the track's dynamic evolution: "We're immediately greeted by a tight drum and bass formation that sets a post-punk mouthfeel, while eventually sliding into a lo-fi groove."
The review highlighted the song's ambitious structure and layered composition, noting it has "almost… a prog-adjacent vibe" with "lots of layers to peel back and enjoy here."
At over six minutes, the track represents a bold departure from typical indie pop single lengths, showcasing Billy Bonbon's confidence in letting instrumental sections develop organically.
Instrumental Focus and Epic Length
Writer Chris Miller emphasized how Billy Bonbon allows their instrumentals to take center stage rather than relying solely on vocal hooks, creating a more immersive listening experience that rewards patient audiences.
