"VIDEO FEATURE: PETROS FUZZHEAD - "LOBOTOMY""

"Lobotomy", the latest single from Indie artist Petros Fuzzhead, is an anthemic track led by impressive instrumental work that immediately pulls you in. Once you're exposed to the mellowed-out vocals, unique transitions, and spot-on production, you're left with an infectiously catchy tune that's hard to take off repeat.


There's something very soothing that shines through this beautifully crafted Indie/Shoegaze/Alt-Rock track. It's hard to put our finger on it. Maybe it's the repetitive vocal work? Maybe it's the hypnotic bass line running behind the catchy guitar licks? We're not sure. All we know is that we're here for it and we want to hear more.


We added "Lobotomy" to our Underground Indie & Alternative playlist on Spotify. Make sure to follow Petros Fuzzhead to see what else they have going on. You can check out the music video for the new tune below. Enjoy! - Havoc Underground


"ORIGINAL ET DÉLICIEUX: LOBOTOMY PAR PETROS FUZZHEAD"

Petros Fuzzhead est notre meilleure découverte en cette journée de grisaille Parisienne.
Sa dernière offre musicale « Lobotomy » est une mystérieuse chanson envoûtante mêlant sonorités rock et grooves tintés de soul. La voix de l’artiste se découle comme un gimmick entêtant qui entre dans votre esprit sans ne jamais le quitter. Unique et incomparable.

Cela fait du bien de découvrir des créateurs comme Petros Fuzzhead, qui créent hors des sentiers battus pour nous offrir un monde à explorer, imaginer et chérir. La vidéo qui accompagne « Lobotomy », abstraite et psychédélique, pousse à l’imagination, à l’interprétation que chacun pourra y donner. - Indie Chronique


"PETROS FUZZHEAD: ATACA COM O GRANDE ÁLBUM SOLO “THE WAR IS NEAR”; CONFIRA"

Após uma consistente trajetória (vinte anos) exercendo a função de compositor e vocalista do The Fuzzy Nerds, o grego Petros Fuzzhead vem com um brilhante trabalho solo, denominado “The War Is Near”. Temos onze canções com o mote alternativo clássico do indie tradicional e pós-punk-retrô, repletas de camadas atmosféricas e vocais etéreos, como na efervescente “The Secret Of The Holy Bean”, exalando impactos sensoriais por todos os poros!

Há momentos que exalam introspectividade, como na abertura “Bored”, com seus elementos “jazzy-progressivos” eclodindo por entre o singelo desenrolar da viagem abordada. Realmente é uma faixa especial, um dos grandes lançamentos desse ano! O disco veio sendo trabalhado para esse lançamento, com a divulgação de dois singles (com direito a vídeo!), que estão entre os grandes momentos desse registro: “Soviet?” e “I Know Who You Are”.

A primeira é intensa e arrastada, emanando aquela parede de guitarras poderosa, nos remetendo para vários momentos gloriosos dos anos noventa. Seria uma faixa que uma lenda como o Blind Melon assinaria com louvor! O clima que beira a lisergia, é magistralmente contagiante! “I Know Who You Are” bebe na década de setenta, em um petardo que descamba para os hard-rock mais pesados do período, além de uma transição melódica que flerta novamente com ares progressivos… Como podemos perceber, a diversidade fala mais alto por aqui! Petros realmente quis experimentar TUDO que a experiência com os The Fuzzy Nerds não davam brecha. E CONSEGUE! A experimentalidade primorosa com a encore/vinheta de “And That’s How It Ends”, é o encerramento perfeito para uma grande obra concebida. Apesar dos destaques de faixas, embarque na progressão completa de “The War Is Near”, e terá uma viagem das mais sedutoras… GRANDE DISCO!

Track: Lobotomy From: The War Is Near (album) Label: Psycho Puppie Records Out: Now
Reminds me of the early 2000s Clinic aesthetic, juxtaposed upon the modern day post-punk of an act such as Lurve. Melodic, dank and ultimately beautiful, from this Greek act. - Janglepop


"Petros Fuzzhead - Lobotomy (Alternative Rock)"

Der griechische Künstler Petros Fuzzhead veröffentlichte kürzlich ein neues Album mit dem Titel ‘The War Is Near’, von welchem wir euch den Track 'Lobotomy' vorstellen möchten. Eines ist sicher, wer auf anspruchsvollen und spannungsreichen Indie / Alternative Rock steht kommt an diesem Song garantiert nicht vorbei. Keines Falls vermissen wollten wir hierbei die wunderbaren Gitarren Loops, die sich nicht nur durch das komplette Arrangement ziehen, sondern direkt zu Beginn etwas Interessantes und Geheimnisvolles enthüllen.

Untermalt von einer weichen Bass Line und temporeichen Rock Drums entsteht dabei eine sehr schwungvolle Atmosphäre, die von einer sich stets wiederholenden gesungenen Phrase bereichert wird. Auch die sich stellenweise überlagernden Vocals haben es uns angetan und verleihen dem Ganzen zusätzlich einen wunderbaren psychedelischen Touch. 'Lobotomy’ ist alles in allem eine äußerst dynamische Produktion, die außerdem auch mit reichlich Verzerrung und unglaublich coolen Riffs, überzeugt. Hört auf alle Fälle mal in Petros Fuzzheads Musik rein und geht sicher, dass ihr das Album auf Spotify checkt: - Berlin on Air, by Adrian Prath


"Music Videos We Love – Petros Fuzzhead"

Petros Fuzzhead gets trippy on the video for their new song Lobotomy. Taking hints from the songs title, the mind altering images are a mix of chaotic and captivating as the main characters appear to have lost all sense of logic and utility. The modern choreography and girating movements are emphasized with eloquent pose from the videos female lead.

The repetitive cadence of the male vocal pairs well with the psychedelic vibe. With the impending Metaverse predicted to consume our ever changing world, the video provides an interesting commentary on what might ensue once we all get trapped inside our interplanetary goggles. Reality as we know it is in jeopardy. For some, sweet serenity will be enjoyed, but for others, a deeper devolution into the insanity of our psyche will be magnified ten-fold by absolute immersion.

There’s a lot of interesting imagery in this video, with each scene offering an interesting snapshot of artistic expression. Its a testament to the incredible effort that went into its creation, as the creators exhibit precise artistic vision and execution.

The underbelly of the song contains a healthy dose of Radiohead inspiration with modern indie sensibility. Mainly its rooted in Radiohead’s more rock heavy catalog, and in essence Petros Fuzzhead is all about getting lost in the vibe of the music.

"δΓιαμάντΓια – Petros Fuzzhead"

Ύστερα από το τέλος των Fuzzy Nerds, o Petros Fuzzhead (σταθερά με έδρα τα Γιάννενα) ακολουθεί μια ωραία τροχιά εκλεκτικής και ευφυούς κιθαριστικής ποπ, και σε αυτά τα μονοπάτια βαδίζει και το ολόνεο τραγούδι του ‘I Know Who You Are’, - ERT Webradio 958 - Γιάννης Σημαντήρας


"Petros Fuzzhead new video & single review"

Diretamente da Grécia, Petros está em nossa lista de maneira inédita, com a ótima instrumentação repleta de riffs envolventes e elementos que entram em nossa mente antes mesmo dele trazer seu vocal suave para 'Lobotomy', faixa divulgada nas plataformas de streaming num dos últimos dias de 2021.

Sendo seu terceiro single do álbum de estreia divulgado no final de Outubro, a faixa consegue unir o rock alternativo ao post-punk e shoegaze em um trabalho só e que mostra a versatilidade do artista grego, além de um pouco do que podemos esperar para futuros lançamentos.

“Lobotomy” é aquela trilha sonora particular que vem se encaixar exatamente nessa era distorcida e distópica em que vivemos em muitos aspectos", comenta ele em release oficial.

Bio

Petros Fuzzhead is Petros Fuzzhead Vyzoukis' personal project. It is presented in two different forms, one with a full band on stage and in studio - Petros Fuzzhead (full band) - and one on his own using looping techniques both on stage and in studio – Petros Fuzzhead (loop therapy) - .

Following the end of a 20-year period being the songwriter/frontman for The Fuzzy Nerds (1994-2014), Petros Fuzzhead moves on with a personal project presenting aspects he hadn't dared to put on the nerds. Carrying inevitably fuzzy echoes, this personal project bears with it all those elements he quietly kept in mind and never shared.

As an idea this personal project had been born as early as 2014 but owing to his work with The Fuzzy Nerds and other band projects at the time, such as Tristessa and Blind Them With Science, Petros Fuzzhead’s  first single release and live appearance on stage came in 2017 with the debut single and video release of “Out Of Your Box” (May 2017) and his debut full band live show in Soundtrope Festival (Dec. 2017) with Their Methlab, which both created an encouraging buzz and received positive reception (i.e. Too Much Love Magazine, ERT Webradio 958Era- Aegean, Rockap.gr,  etc.).

In the following 2 years Petros Fuzzhead appeared live on stage both with his full band at festivals and venues in his hometown and in Athens (i.e in BeatnikΘυμωμένο ΠορτραίτοBlack BoxEkfrasis Theatre, Polyhoros Agora, Soundtrope Festival, Castle Rock Festival etc.) as well as with his loop therapy forms and shared the stage with artists such as Electric Litany, Vasilis Lagdas (loop project), Skinner BoxElephantUshala  and NoisyΠ

In the summer of 2019 Petros Fuzzhead started recording his debut album “The War Is Near” in NoisyLand Recording Studios with Panos Papakostas in production with the first single and video out of it , “Soviet?”, coming out a year later (June 2020). Owing to the Covid-19 pandemic the album production and release was postponed with the second single and video release, “I Know Who You Are”, coming out in June of 2021. Finally the album release came in October 31st 2021 by Psycho Puppie Records in all streaming platforms along with a limited edition digipack vinyl CD following in December of 2021. Two days before the end of 2021, “Lobotomy”,  the third single and video out of “The War Is Near” album was released, directed once again by Kostis Emmanouilidis, whom Petros Fuzzhead had collaborated with in the past for the video of his debut single “Out Of Your Box” in 2017 as well as for the video of Petros Fuzzhead (full band)  live show at EHM which was broadcasted by the local TV Network ITV (April 2021).  “Bored” and "The Secret Of The Holy Bean", are the 4th and 5th single & video releases out of “The War Is Near Album” that came out in May 22nd 2022 and in July 10th 2022 respectively, completing this album’s single and video circle.

The War Is Near” album and all the singles and videos that came out of it received very positive reception and reviews by equally the audience, fellow artists and music radios and critics both in his country as well as worldwide (i.e Havoc UndergroundIndie ChroniqueRoadie MusicJanglepopBerlin on AirThe Wild Is CallingERT Webradio 958Era- AegeanERT Deftero ProgrammaOs Garotos de LiverpoolMystic SonsIggy Magazine, En Plo FM, Up FM, Mad Wasp Radio etc.).
