Avant-pop syndicate J’CUUZI molts into an entirely new beast with their new single “How 2 Get Everything You’ve Always Wanted 4 Free (Forever)”, an anti-anthem for late-stage capitalism that turns the group’s feral energy and their growling, depraved sense of humor all the way up.

Backed by an array of fuzzy bass and a glitching off-kilter beat, J’CUUZI spells out the trick to happiness gratis through propeller-like vocal distortion and demonic sub octaves, groaning “D-E-B-T”: their secret to success. Sardonic and seductive, industrial and enigmatic; J’CUUZI boldly claims the track contains the solution to all of your problems… and they may be right.

About J’CUUZI

Describing J’CUUZI as a band is at the very least inaccurate, or worse: incorrect. While they do deliver sweaty, electrifying live performances of high octane songs that modulate between serrated post punk guitar and pulsing electro beats, there is at almost every turn some distortion of expectation, some curve, that the word “band” lacks the range to capture.

The members, of which there are an ambiguous number, wear handmade couture, with bulbous anime-esque proportions and insectile features sewn into drag silhouettes. Their stage looks like a cheap studio apartment: a spinning blue egg chair and a single guitar amp on either side of a bedazzled ironing board. Their performances imbued with explosively manic energy and amateur acrobatics, often spill out and on top of the crowd. Even the songs themselves pivot between perspectives on a dime, like two tracks of a similar tempo stitched together by a particularly opportunistic DJ.

Whether you call them a band, a performance art troupe, or a drag family; J’CUUZI has set a pace of expansion and experimentation that proves their’s is an act worth watching.
