In their latest New Music Now! feature, Cigarettes for Breakfast was highlighted for their unique blend of pop-punk and shoegaze-rock, a combination that has captivated both fans and critics alike. Their single, “Seeing Stars,” is described as reminiscent of the early works of Jesus and Mary Chain, a nod to the bandâs ability to craft emotionally-driven tracks with cosmic ambition.
Rolling Stone Argentina praised Cigarettes for Breakfast for seamlessly merging the energy of pop-punk with the atmospheric layers of shoegaze. Their sound embodies the best of both genres, delivering high-energy anthems wrapped in dreamy, melodic subtleties. In particular, “Seeing Stars” was noted for its pursuit of the “perfect love song⌠from outer space,” a testament to the bandâs creative depth and range.
