Ecce Shnak share new single "Eddie, Legalistic Homeslice"
New York art-rock outfit Ecce Shnak return with Eddie, Legalistic Homeslice, the second single from their upcoming album Dandy Variances, due later this year via Records, Man Records. Produced by Jeff Lucci and mixed by Grammy-winning engineer Mario McNulty, the track is a heartfelt yet eccentric garage-rock tribute to friendship, blending humor, chaos and emotional depth.
The accompanying video, directed by DJay Brawner, stars comedy duo Syd and Olivia in a quirky, Wes Anderson-inspired buddy comedy that perfectly matches the band's offbeat style. Renowned for their explosive live performances and fearless experimental sound, Ecce Shnak continue to blur the lines between technical precision and joyful mayhem.
Eddie, Legalistic Homeslice is now available on all major streaming platforms.

YC art-rockers Ecce Shnak present 'Eddie, Legalistic Homeslice', the second single from their full-length album “Dandy Variances", anticipated later this year via Records, Man Records. Recorded and produced by Jeff Lucci, this single was mixed by Grammy award-winning producer Mario McNulty (David Bowie, Prince, Nine Inch Nails, Julian Lennon),
Formed in the mid-noughties and forged in NYC's experimental scene, Ecce Shnak (pronounced Eh-kay sh-knock) is made up of David Roush (composer, bassist and baritone vocalist), Bella Komodromos (vocals), Chris Krasnow (guitar), Gannon Ferrell (guitar), and Henry Buchanan-Vaughn (drums).
"Like 'Larry, Sleepover Friend' from our 2019 'Joke Oso' EP, our new song is a garage-rock homage to a beloved friend of mine. Like 'Larry', 'Eddie' explores big themes in great friendships: their gnarly ambivalences, their absurd misunderstandings, their inside-jokes, and their contradictory mix of irreverence with utmost care," says David Roush.
'Eddie' reaches its lyrical denouement with what is said to be the “oldest prayer of friendship,” and also sounds like a throwaway Rivers Cuomo line: “I pray you don’t be a rat in a rat-suit! Pray you don’t be a rat in a rat-costume!”
"We are also overjoyed to feature two great friends as the co-stars of the music video, the preposterously funny and talented comedic duo Syd and Olivia! I was lucky to have met these two pugnaciously podcasting, thoughtfully Thespian, joke-slinging YouTube yokels on a fantastic journey to the Greek island of Crete two years ago, and the rest was thirst’ory," says David Roush.
Vocalist Bella Komodromos adds, "They absolutely kicked butt at their roles (as Eddie and Davey respectively) in this Wes-Anderson-hued buddy-comedy music video, directed and produced by DJay Brawner, famed for his work with Foo Fighters, Sum41, Panic! At The Disco, Ed Sheeran, Melanie Martinez and Lupe Fiasco. It is our ardent hope that all fans of Ecce Shnak and Syd and Olivia alike can shart out with their hearts out to this badass collaboration!"
Apart from directing and editing the new video with Brooks Jones, Beth Narducci and David Roush, Brawner also worked on the video for the album's lead track 'Vincent', an homage to superb music videos of yesteryear - for Meshuggah’s “Bleed” and 311's “Down”. Here, operatic trills collide with frantic rock energy in a high-decibel takedown of a formulaic antagonist through the power of one's own voice.

As of July 1st, 'Eddie, Legalistic Homeslice' is available from digital music platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music and Bandcamp.
With a reputation for astounding performances, Ecce Shnak's music a volatile yet meticulously crafted ecosystem, where technical precision meets inspired mayhem. Their 2025 'Shadows Grow Fangs' EP was recorded and produced by Jeff Lucci, mixed by Nicholas Vernhes (Animal Collective, Deerhunter, Wild Nothing, War on Drugs) and mastered by Grammy award-winning engineer Joe LaPorta (David Bowie, The Weeknd, Foo Fighters, Vampire Weekend).
Ecce Shnak recently wrapped up their UK tour with EMF, not long after Ecce Shnak featured on EMF's stellar track 'LGBTQ+ Lover' with both Davey and Bella contributing vocals. The accompanying video was filmed during their joint West coast tour in 2025 tour,
