Emotionally and melodically rich, “Bussdown Your Soul (feat Barney Bones)” is a genre-fluid track mingling menace with sorrow and placing AUGUST 08’s strength as a songwriter on full display through his unorthodox musical choices. Over throbbing sub-bass, ricocheting percussion and contemplative piano rounding out the background, AUGUST 08 croons about how materialism and the trappings of a superficial lifestyle damage the soul and hollow out your inner life. As he twists his vocals over the tortured, drawn-out syllables of “soul” in the chorus, AUGUST 08’s delivers a powerful, emotive performance.
AUGUST 08’s “Bussdown Your Soul (feat. Barney Bones)” is out now via 88rising, distributed by 12Tone Music LLC, stream/buy it here.
