Sammy Brue - "Teenage Mayhem"

We got sucked into Sammy Brue's mainstream take on Americana back in 2017. He wasn't rewriting the genre, but he was completely nailing it in a way that was impossible not to like. Now the newly eighteen Brue is back, and he's trying out some new things. "Teenage Mayhem" keeps some of the Americana twang intact, but just slightly in the guitar. The rest of the song is a buzzsaw of mid-90's post grunge rock mayhem. It's pounding drums and teen angst mixed with a tiny bit of country making a still mainstream sound despite being unlike any music being made today.

You can watch the video for "Teenage Mayhem" below. Crash Test Kid, the new album from Sammy Brue, will be out June 12 on New West Records. You can pre-order the album here. For more on Sammy Brue, check out his website.
