"New Words" Video By Jen Herzog of Found Avenue ProductionsBugs in the Dark is a 2 girl / 1 guy dual-vocal art rock trio out of Brooklyn, NYC, inspired by bands like Sonic Youth, The Pixies, Sleater Kinney and Blonde Redhead. One hell of a live show!PRESS REVIEWS:"Bugs in the Dark can do what all those post-punk revivalists did five years ago by prettying up the raw material of their era of choice, which for these guys is early 90s alternative/noise....go to their Myspace for a sweltering track called “Ave M†that builds into something Sonic Youth should have put out on Dirty to break out into that post-Nevermind alt-rock hype machine, if James Iha had been behind the recording console doling out harmonic minor scales and ignominious advice. Oh well. Too bad for SY, it’s 2008 and Bugs in the Dark are doing it now." - Impose Magazine"The future of New York City music." - Deli Magazine" . . . a band making some SERIOUS noise with obvious potential. Brooklyn’s Bugs in the Dark have no time for sleepy-eyed, middle of the road, groan along, pseudo-rock anthems - they’re too busy delivering ferocious, sweaty punk, fueled by sledgehammer drums and mean dueling guitars...Highly Recommended for fans of classic power-punk trios such as the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Sleater Kinney." - Fiddle While You Burn"Bugs in the Dark are doing their best to fill the void left by Sleater Kinney and the Pixies. Surprisingly, they're doing a bang-up job." - L Magazine"If your live music itch gots ta be scratched, best bet is YYYs-ish Bugs In The Dark!" - Badmintonstamps.com"Cancel everything and go see their next show." - Indie Sounds NY, Pete Harris
