WL//WH Premiere BUNNYBLACK

Bunnyblack are a noise duo based in Palermo, Italy, operating at the intersection of 8-bit Game Boy electronics and distorted guitars and vocals. Their sound is raw, lo-fi and relentless, shaped by post-punk tension, dark wave atmospheres and shoegaze haze, where digital glitches collide with abrasive electric textures.
Comprised of the electronic musician and guitarist Maiqqu and multi-instrumentalist Francesco Less (Velaut, Inside the Hole, Pupi di Surfaro, Disìu), Bunnyblack unveils the first single, “Eat Me”, from the forthcoming debut album “Midnight,” due out on September 11th, 2026, with a music video conceived and edited by Maiqqu himself, which WL//WH is pleased to premiere.

The 8-bit sounds of the Nintendo Gameboy create the rhythms and textures of the song, which are grafted onto guitars, bass, and vocals. The result is a genre-hybrid song, deeply rooted in postpunk and darkwave, but also leaning toward synthwave.

Lyric-wise, the track talks about how guilt and distrust blacken one’s heart.

The heavily emotional “Eat Me,” laced with guilt, anger, distrust, and deception, compels a tumultuous buzzing maelstrom of relentless thumping programmed beats and churning bass drones, swathed in a multilayered swirl of stabbing guitars, shivering synths, flickering jarring FXs and hypnotic forlorn melodic drifts, imbued with obsessive, sad, hopeless vocals, that tear apart into a sweeping instrumental climax overflowing with anxious, pain-filled 8-bit-drenched resonances.

The “Eat Me” video, conceived and edited by Maiqqu, is an acid trip between dreams and nightmares. Theatrical symbolic figures, some charming, some menacing, all reminiscent of Kabuki, appear during a woman’s restless sleep. Flashes of close-ups of Bunnyblack, playing immersed in fluorescent lights, tie the scene together, glueing a surreal feeling of mind expansion.

In the visuals, Bunnyblack sings “Eat Me” under a shadowy blue light as a woman struggles against a wave of disturbing visions that distort her mind. Close-up views of suggestive imagery combine with skewed angles, cloudy auras, and sculpted, prismatic reflections to evoke a surreal, nightmarish perception, where death and ice queens haunt and fascinate amid an array of dark drama.
