CRITIC REVIEWS

Northern Transmissions
A collection of songs that has its sights squarely aimed at toxic masculinity, sexism and the emotional strain of unreliable relationships. This is all enrobed in a sonic mixture of peppy-pop-punk, jerky tropical rhythms and quiet/loud grunge motifs.

The Line of Best Fit

With Honeymoon Beach Bunny established themselves as both critical darlings and a force to be reckoned with. Blame Game takes everything that made that record so irresistible and amps it up.

Under The Radar
The EP easily stands on it’s own with its sharp focus, but if the band is able to keep its songwriting this tight and this punchy on LP two then fans surely have great things to look forward to.

AllMusic

As a stand-alone release or an aperitif to their next full-length, Blame Game is another solid entry in the Beach Bunny canon.

FLOOD Magazine

While the honeymoon might be over by the time Blame Game begins, it’s hard to temper Beach Bunny’s spirit; even in a world rife with chauvinistic attitudes, just making it through in one piece is still worth celebrating.

'Blame Game' is my first time listening to anything by Beach Bunny, being Beach Bunny's fifth EP. The EP is excellent, not specifically for its sounds, but because of how beautiful the lyrics in the EP are as each line seems to be carefully written to send a spectacular message. Each message is magnificent and carefully crafted to form a fantastic, fun EP that I'll be going back to often.

Ayo, those are my anime people.

Beach Bunny's new EP, "Blame Game", is a 13-min short indie pop & power pop project that is actually quite good and fun. Seeing the cover, you can already tell it's gonna feature a fresh, lively vibe that will carry out the project successfully. The energy is definetly there, with Lili, the vocalist, showing up with a lot of powerful anthems to light up the day real fast.

The production is also really fast-paced and usually ... read more

This is a passable 4 song EP with a good message and good performances. I feel as if more can be done with these songs though, a lot of Beach Bunny songs feel the same and lack that factor that makes them stand out from each other, so some different instrumentation could be used.

Man am I a sucker for this EP. I’ll die on the hill that this EP is some of, if not THE best stuff Beach Bunny has ever released. It’s punchy, it’s fun, and it’s different from other indie pop releases that I’ve heard so far. They really seem to embrace the “Beach” in their name with those nice guitars that almost sounds like something that’d be on a beach soundtrack (to me at least). I really don’t find anything deal breaking bad about this ... read more
