We are
Bug Chaser, a punk quartet from Copenhagen, Denmark. Today, November 13th 2026, we are releasing our second album ”My First Crippled Love” in coalition with Vicious Records and Audible Music. Also, we will participate in Vicious Record’s label event on November 20th at Ny Bastion in Copenhagen alongside Josephine and My Beloved.
What is Bug Chaser again?
Bug Chaser is defeat.
Bug Chaser is exhaustion.
Bug Chaser is tension.
Bug Chaser is wrong.
Bug Chaser is the silence behind the symmetric lines in the subcutaneous tissue.
Bug Chaser is the broken windows.
Bug Chaser is the empty mirror turned to face the sea.
Bug Chaser is inflammation.
We started playing together in 2015 under the name Bug Chaser. Jan called me and asked if we should start a band again. We had previously played together in a post-rock band which didn’t achieve any success. I said I wanted to but canceled our plans constantly. Jan persisted and one day I didn’t cancel. I was heavily drunk when we met. That night we wrote ”All my friends are dead” and three other songs from our first album.
I remembered Kaspar from the 2000s when we were in the same rehearsal space complex. He played alternative folk with his band in the room across from ours. But when his bandmates went home he made a hell of a noise alone. So I asked him if he wanted to join.
After going through 2-3 different drummers we finally settled on Jakob who joined the band.
We began writing based on foolish dogmas about not pulling ourselves together. This turned into our first record, ”The Hesitation to Disappear” which came out in 2022.
After that we stopped working dogmatically with our music and made the new album ”My First Crippled Love”, out today
