Eerie Glue's art pop, punk "Oh Dear God!" bursts

Eerie Glue is the musical project of Denmark's Bünyamin Eroglu. Started in 2013 his divergent manifestations of sounds had gone from a one man affair, to a trio, to a quartet until circling back to just Eroglu. As singer - songwriter, producer and recording engineer, he does it all and maybe that is the best case scenario for such an inner driven artist whose pop driven anti-pop aesthetic is open for a lot of experimentation. 

Listen to the ever so catchy Oh Dear God! with the wash of weirdness at the beginning that gives way a pushed beat and jubilant, "oh oh oh, oh-oh's", that made me blissfully think of Bowie (TVC15) and I am sucked in right away. "How will God save me?" sings Eroglu with layered vox that sound lush and wonderful. The song unfortunately ends much too soon but I suspect it will be on Eerie Glue's 2020 full length "Sloppy Seconds" that is due to drop on June 12th.

Eerie Glue started in 2013 and has had many shapes since. Brainchild Bünyamin Eroglu is behind the songwriting and recording. At first a one man project, later a trio, then a quartet and latest a one man project again.

Eerie Glue has consistently released music the past couple of years. Starting out with a cassette release through US labels ‘Danger Collective Records’ and ‘Plastic Responds Records’, follow up by 4 EP’s in just one year, before finally releasing the first full length album ‘The Benefits of Being Mad’ in 2018. Eerie Glue has since released a compilation ‘Bedroom Recordings 2013-2014’ in 2019 which was followed up by ‘Imitations’ an album of cover songs. Eerie Glue is now ready to release another full length album ‘Sloppy Seconds’ which will hit streaming services in May 2020.
