“Dizzy,” the New Single from NYC’s WYLDLIFE, Is a Swaggering Love Letter to BritPop’s MTV Glory Days ++++New LP ‘sorted.’ Out May 16Playing Bowery Electric May 17“They are young, loud, sweaty, snotty, irreverent, catchy, and clever. This is – proudly, unabashedly, unapologetically, and frequently shirtlessly – a rock ‘n’ roll band.”- Jersey Beat“Their trunk is full of contraband and these dudes are on a mission to set the world ablaze with their songs. Like the NYC heroes before them, WYLDLIFE are real, raw and don’t follow the straight and trendy trail to please the masses. They play rock ‘n’ roll that makes your heart beat faster and your fists scream. If you don’t know, now you do. Welcome to the WYLDLIFE!”- Thrasher“With a unique blend of classic punk, glam, and power-pop, New York’s WYLDLIFE are just good, old-fashioned, fun rock ‘n’ roll. It’s hard not to feel a sense of nostalgia in their music, even if it’s a nostalgia for a time you’ve never been to.”- New Noise MagazineStream “Dizzy” /Pre-Order The New LP ‘sorted.’ Here Fueled by infectious riffs, shout-along choruses, and undeniable charm, WYLDLIFE delivers a sound that nods to the golden age of ’70s punk, glam rock, and power pop. Their music crackles with raw energy and a sense of timeless cool, fusing melody, attitude, and a rebellious streak into every track. With a deep reverence for rock ‘n’ roll’s icons, they channel the high-voltage swagger of the past while injecting a sharp, modern edge—creating songs that grab you instantly and live shows that hit like a bolt of electricity.Reflecting on the new single “Dizzy”, vocalist Dave Feldman says, “In writing “Dizzy,” we just wanted people to have that feeling of coming home from school in 1995, turning on MTV and hearing some “choooon” from the UK. Personally, I never want to lose that feeling or exit that headspace. We always told journalists ‘we love BritPop’ and we did it way before it was cool (again). Well here you go, folks: Here’s our love anthem to BritPop.”“Dizzy” will appear on the band’s forthcoming Wicked Cool Records release, ‘Sorted.’ Stream “Dizzy” here: https://orcd.co/dizzywyldlife

WYLDLIFE imagines a more focused Paul Westerberg creating a bomping bit of hard-edged but radio-ready pop.”- PopMatters“High-octane rock with just the right blend of snottiness …meant to be played very incredibly loud. Kind of plays like a stadium-filling evolution of nerdy punk a la Cheap Trick.”- A Journal Of Musical Things“WYLDLIFE would’ve easily fit in alongside bands such as The Strokes, Jet, or The Hives, just as much as they would have found their place on the CBGB’s stage in the 1970’s.”- All Ages Zine“Highly essential rock ‘n’ roll…”- RPM OnlineYou know what I never get tired of?….loud guitars, catchy melodies, leather jackets and bands that sneer at the camera.
