Tuscany’s Biffers return with fresh fire on their new single “Safe and Sound,” another sharp reminder of why they’ve remained one of the most consistent names in Italian punk since forming back in 2009. Based in Livorno, the band has always thrived on raw energy, big hooks, and a no-nonsense attitude, and this track taps straight into that spirit.
“Safe and Sound” bursts forward from the opening second with driving guitars and a pounding rhythm section that never lets up. The production keeps things tight and immediate, letting the grit shine through while still sounding crisp and powerful. The vocals cut clear over the chaos, carrying both urgency and swagger, with a melody that worms its way in and refuses to leave. It feels like a song meant to be shouted back at the band in sweaty venues, full of motion, tension, and release.
Over the years, Biffers have flirted with different influences, from classic California-style punk to touches of rock and indie sensibility, but what has always defined them is conviction. “Safe and Sound” leans into that identity completely. It is punchy, melodic, straightforward, and alive in a way only well-crafted punk rock can be.
If you have followed Biffers through past records or you are discovering them for the first time, this single proves exactly why they still matter. “Safe and Sound” feels like a band comfortable in their skin, confident in their sound, and still hungry enough to hit hard. Loud, fast, honest punk rock — exactly as it should be.
