Vulfmon & Zachary Barker, Disco Snails [📷: Vulf]“Inside every snail shell is a tiny disco ball.” Say what? “Disco isn’t dead, instead, it turns out it just got small.” Okurrr… Vulfmon (instruments, vocals, and mixing) and Zachary Barker (vocals) unveiled the infectious “Disco Snails” in July 2024.  A song like none other, penned by Vulfmon and Barker, “Disco Snails” is ‘the stuff.’ It boasts a colorful, electrifying, and funky nu-disco groove.  Besides the groove, there are lovely strings, a lit rhythm guitar, and a robust bass line. The sound of “Disco Snails” is decadent – simply irresistible, baby!

Of course, it’s not all the sleek instrumental accompaniment. The songwriting and the vocal performance both make “Disco Snails” the sugar honey iced tea.  The lyrics are ambitious, novel, and tongue-in-cheek. Disco snails? That’s who Vulfmon/Barker reference.  “Disco snails, they’re off to San Francisco where the disco’s off the rails,” they ‘sing’ (chant) in the second verse, adding, “They meet and dance to disco in disgusting garbage pails / The afterparty’s in your garden where they’ll eat your kale.” That’s on-brand… they are snails after all.  The fun continues with a third verse, though the section to beat is the chorus, which you won’t be able to get unstuck out of your head:

“Disco what?

Disco snails, they’re leaving silver trails

Disco where?

Current position’s third emission

Disco how?

They’re on the roof, they found the groof

Disco why?

The simple answer is, they’re dancers.”
