Album lore

Deadbuttons’ 2020 release 1, issued by Puking Asian Records, presents ten tracks steeped in South Korea’s k-rock milieu. The album unfolds with a mixture of psychedelic rock motifs and jangly riffs, evident across songs like "Bloom," "Witch," and "Foggy Night." The band’s approach channels a raw, unvarnished energy, often marked by fuzzed-out guitar tones and driving rhythms.Recorded in the period when South Korea’s underground rock scene was consolidating its identity, 1 stands as a modest artifact from this lineage. Tracks such as "숨 Sum" and "Cockroacheeessss" exhibit a playful, sometimes abrasive texture, balancing melody with noise. Though relatively obscure—with a Last.fm audience under 200 listeners—Deadbuttons’ 1 offers a snapshot of k-rock’s more psychedelic, garage-rooted expressions.
