Athens-based stoner rock juggernauts Honeybadger are back with their most explosive track yet — “Panic Button” — a fuzz-fueled gut punch that captures the chaos of modern life with groove, grit, and unapologetic soul.
Saturated in desert rock swagger and grunge-era attitude, Panic Button slams down the gas pedal and refuses to let up. With sludgy, hook-driven riffs and razor-sharp lyricism, the band delivers a raw and rebellious anthem for anyone teetering on the edge of burnout — or already plunging into the abyss.
The single drips with urgency: warped by war, rattled by anxiety, and scorched by a culture of manipulation and conformity. Honeybadger aren’t just venting — they’re lighting the match.
“I just found my panic button / And we’re going straight to hell…”
Having carved a decade-long path through Greece’s underground rock scene, Honeybadger have evolved — more urgent, more anthemic, and more necessary than ever. Panic Button builds on the emotional grit of Empty-Handed and kicks down the door into a darker, more defiant dimension.
If you’re tired of smiling through the chaos and playing by someone else’s rules, Panic Button is your wake-up call. Press it loud. Press it now.
