premiere: alt rock trailblazer michael jablonka’s “flump” is a sugary rush

Like candy it takes its name from, London rocker Michael Jablonka’s latest single “Flump” is sugary and chewy, twisting and vibrant. “For some reason the riff reminded me of the marshmallow sweet,” Jablonka tells AFROPUNK on the stripped down dirty riff that anchors the song. It’s alt rock at its most essential, layered with a confectionery hook and a driving beat. The song is at once sludgy and sweet, and like any good candy leaves you wanting more.

Catch Michael Jablonka May 19th at the Great Escape Festival at the Queen’s Hotel in Brighton.
