Italian duo Bunnyblack delivers an evocative full-length debut with 00:00 (or Midnight), a stellar follow-up to their 2019–2024 EPs. Hailing from Palermo, the project carves out a distinct sonic niche by juxtaposing vintage 8-bit Nintendo Game Boy electronics with distorted, abrasive guitars. The resulting raw, lo-fi aesthetic seamlessly bridges post-punk tension, darkwave atmospheres, synthwave, and shoegaze haze.
Conceptually centered around nighttime, the album acts as a creative catalyst for breaking daytime rules and embracing creative anarchy. This dark thematic core echoes through standout tracks like the intoxicatingly toxic dance of "Eat Me," the isolating ordinariness found in "Same Old World," and the lysergic, sleepless march of closer "May I."
Written and produced by Francesco and Maiqqu,00:00 is a masterful collision of digital glitches and heavy electric textures. It is an absolute must-listen deep dive for fans seeking a nostalgic yet brilliantly aggressive underground sound.

0:00 (or Midnight) is Bunnyblack's debut album, following three EPs released between 2019 and 2024. The Palermo duo stands out for a sound that blends Nintendo Game Boy 8-bit electronics, distorted guitars, and vocals, resulting in a raw, lo-fi sound shaped by post-punk tension, dark wave atmospheres, and shoegaze haze, where digital glitches collide with abrasive electric textures.
00:00 is an album inspired by night time, and by the spirit of the night itself. It is the unleashed convulsion of the suspension of rules, that moment in which we reclaim a sparse yet individual universe.
It is the delirium of omnipotence that occurs when we suspend the logical reasons of daytime life to speak to the deepest parts of ourselves and, in doing so, we awaken our anarchic and creative spirit.
A sonic universe intertwining Post Punk, Darkwave, Shoegaze, Synthwave, and Chiptune/Micromusic, with the vintage modernism of Nintendo Gameboy accompanying guitars, bass, and synths.
• Crossing the Edge Tonight is an invitation to overcome the limits that prevent us from living life to the fullest.
• Eat Me is a song in which a hysterical dance manages to make you accept even a toxic love, where you sacrifice yourself to the extreme.
• In Same Old World, the suspension between life and death, mesmerization, contrasts with the terrible ordinariness of our alienating everyday life.
• Infection tells how the destruction of our natural critical defenses can lead us to accept anything, and even lead us to feel Power as an infection that empties us inside, from which we will never be able to free ourselves.
• Nucleus is a desperate attempt to protect ourselves while someone, emotionally or socially, tries to use our most intimate weaknesses against us, to the point of making us fall for their lies.
• Black Nails expresses the pain of being constantly pulled between two opposing sides: who you are and how others and power want you.
• White is the story of the end of a clouded, unresolved love, like an unwritten, incomplete, and increasingly fading book.
• May I is a poetic and cutting song, made up of images juxtaposed in a lysergic and repetitive way, which closes the album like a sleepless march.
