Sunday Music: Beach Bunny – “I’m Afraid Of Winding Up Alone, But That’s Not Love”

Beach Bunny has been slowly maturing into an indie-pop, surfer punk powerhouse. The newest record, Honeymoon, is a testament to their understanding of the form and the personal touch Lili Trilifio and her bandmates bring to these songs. There’s a deep, melancholy quality fo these otherwise upbeat songs. An example from “Cuffing Season,”

Maybe we are getting too close

Paranoid permanence is just an empty promise

Sometimes I like being on my own

I’m afraid of winding up alone

But that’s not love

But that’s not love

There’s a lot to explore here. They are growing and it will be exciting to see where they go next.
