Buss Premiere ‘Live Under the Grape’ Video

buss live under the grape

You got 12 minutes to watch some kids rock out like Stooges-gone-West-Coast-fuzz? Sure you do. What are doing that’s so damn important? Apparently sometime last summer, brash trio Buss — who released their self-titled EP (review here) in May — decided to get together and play. No shows, of course, so they made their own. They’re outside, it’s sunny, warm, under a tree that may or may not indeed be a big-ass grape vine, and with an old boombox by their side, a couple cameras to swap between and a beer on bassist Erik Carpani‘s Orange amp, they just hit it with the first two tracks of the EP. A band, playing songs. Could hardly be more straightforward, right?

Sure, save for the context in which ‘Live Under the Grape’ arrives. I don’t know whose house that is they’re playing in front of, but given the volume they unleash one hopes the neighbors were down to jam. Perhaps, after several months of hard quarantine, they too were ready for whatever glimpse of a gig they could get. Maybe after the cameras stopped it turned into an impromptu and safely-socially-distant block party, everybody out on their porch cracking a beer and toasting each other from far away. Okay, maybe not, but Buss still rip into “Liars” and “TV Show” and if you’ve got a problem with that, I doubt it’d give the band much pause at all. From what I can see here, they seem pretty happy just to be jamming on the songs.

Rightfully so. I’ll spare you the group-creativity-is-a-treasure-during-a-pandemic spiel, but obviously the same applies. I’ve never been to Trieste, Italy, but it’s no stretch to imagine hitting up a show and watching Buss have the kind of infectious fun that vibes all the way through here. So yeah, you’ve got 12 minutes for that. Sorry for your day if you don’t.

Enjoy:

Buss, ‘Live Under the Grape’ official video premiere

BUSS – Live under the grape

Tracklist:
Liars (00:00-6:13)
TV show (6:23-12:15)

Recorded in a hot and sweaty summer afternoon. Listen with the volume cranked up!

We’d had thirst for live performance, so we decided to organise one! No tricky stuff: just loud amps, cold beer and some good friends. Ivan the drummer, provided some basic recording equipment he wanted to try. So this is our first improvised recording; At a old, dusty, and moldy house, the best location for a wild party. We had an amazing time, playing together: we really were on fire, just like our amps. The mix of booze and (too) high volumes continued until early morning hours for the happiness of the beloved neighbours.

    Look at these kids!

    Strikes me like if Amplified Heat cross-bred with Reagers-Era Vitus…I also hear something that answers the question I didn’t know I wanted asked: What if The Company Corvette were from San Diego instead Philly?

    (Fuzz around and find out?)

    Thanks, JJ! (& Buss, obviously!)
