Garage Rockers, The Family Battenberg release latest single

Music Review | 4th May, 2025 The Family Battenberg The Family Battenberg

Garage rockers, The Family Battenberg, have been creating music that blends fuzzy psychedelic sounds around filthy guitar riffs and crunching chords. Taking inspiration from 1970's rock such as Iggy And The Stooges, the band crafts music that is both unique and modern.

The latest single, Anteater, is drenched in fuzzy saturation, spacey vocals ricochet between a blistering guitar, all while a double-tracked mono drum plays like a call to action.

Anteater, is an independent release by the four-piece. Written in just a day, the track was recorded at Tom Rees' (Buzzard Buzzard Buzzard) studio while he was on holiday. To master the recording the group sought out long-time collaborator Eddie Al-Shakarchi (Boy Azooga, Loathe, Swim Deep.)

This is an anti-love song. When unhealthy adoration becomes a quest for romance, or approval in this case, we find ourselves doing strange things. In this story, the protagonist justifies total metamorphosis in the name of subservience. "It's self-humiliation in the pursuit of a potential suitor's attention - Eliot (Frontman)
