On 2025’s Tunnel Vision, Beach Bunny is getting back to basics: urgent, guitar-based indie rockwith pop melodies. Woven through the album, “Just Around the Corner” echoes dynamic ‘90sindie rock courtesy of fuzzed-out guitars and crashing drums, while slashing riffs and preciserhythms propel the melodic “Big Pink Bubble.” “Violence,” meanwhile, veers between a choruspropelled by buzzing guitars and Trifilio’s pleading vocals and a buoyant chorus hook; “Chasm”is driving punk-pop; and the vivacious title track is a pogo-worthy rock anthem.
So far, this approach has worked like a charm. The band — the name refers interchangeably toboth Trifilio and the full band that also features bassist/lead guitarist Anthony Vaccaro anddrummer Jon Alvarado — has landed viral hits such as the RIAA-certified Platinum “PromQueen” and “Cloud 9” and the RIAA-certified Gold “Sports,” and earned over a billion streamson Spotify alone plus countless appearances on critics’ best of the year lists. 2022’s EmotionalCreature, which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Heatseekers Albums chart, while “Vertigo,” thefirst single released from Tunnel Vision, became their highest charting song at AAA radio to dateupon its 2024 release.
