With lyrics that are as lacerating as they are poetic and eye-opening, and punk-tinged indie pop music reminiscent of legendary bands, BBB concoct their own alter ego in the form of a concept punk band by the name of The Rising Fallen. With their guitar steel and drum-tense electro-dense lyrics, The Fall and Rise of the Rising Fallen catalogs these mythological legendary failures and tells tall tales of fateful, prodigious gigs on Scandinavian oil rigs where they unwittingly begat their own brand of rousing idolatry.
