Broken Equipment

The Brooklyn punks remain focused on the ceaseless challenges of living in the big city, but their overdriven guitars no longer sound quite as bitter or fed up—particularly when they shift to love songs.

For a band with wordy philosophies to burn, BODEGA’s most vital moments come when they lower their guard down and just let it all out.

The Brooklyn art-rock party starters double down on their "write locally, reach globally" ethos on their second album.

The outfit play mostly the same old tricks as last time, for mixed results.

On their second album, Broken Equipment, Bodega just about finish the process of sanding off the rough sonic edges that began on their 2019 EP Shiny New Model.

The artsy NYC ensemble BODEGA are back with their second long player.

Music Review: BODEGA - Broken Equipment

For the swaggering Beastie Boys nods alone this Bodega record is worth a listen. Broken Equipment is flawed but fun stuff from the NYC punks

On 'Broken Equipment', New York post-punkers BODEGA channel uninhibited, child-like confidence to create a fun though uneven sophomore album.
