LA’s Ja Prawn might be one of the weirder bands we’ve heard in while— after all, combining boogie-funk, analog synth fetishism, and weird prog-rock song structures isn’t typical, but “Suicide Party” is proof that the eclectic mix really works. With a bassline that could have come from an early Larry Heard project, gauzy synths recalling ’70s AM rock radio, and electric guitar bits that wouldn’t be out of place on a Journey reunion tour, “Suicide Party” is a strange yet extraordinarily catchy earworm. Be sure to check out the rest of Ja Prawn’s first album here, where it is available for free download.
