Oh, Energy Whores, how we love thee! As the musical brainchild of New York-based singer/songwriter, filmmaker, producer, and director Carrie Schoenfeld, Energy Whores are an outfit we’ve known and loved for nearly two years now. Recent tunes like ‘Mach9ne’ and ‘BANG di BANG’ have only deepened our appreciation for the band’s bold and fearless creativity, and Carrie and Co. have now returned with ‘Bunker Man’, a danceable dystopian anthem that delivers on all fronts!
A pulsating, progressive, and highly innovative piece of music, ‘Bunker Man’ has a sense of urgency and tenseness in its instrumentals. It’s dark and eerie and sometimes verges on some pretty hypnotic psytrance, offering the listener a high-voltage thrill ride between unease and euphoria.
Serving as a biting moral critique of society’s power structures and the excesses of the wealthy, Energy Whores’ latest release essentially asks the rich and powerful “Why not use your billions to help others live healthy and peaceful lives?”
Known for taking on themes of social justice, greed, and authoritarianism, Carrie and Co. continue to craft music that challenges, provokes, and refuses to be ignored. ‘Bunker Man’ is another fine example of that, and it sets the tone for an immensely promising 2025!
