Beer bongs and circle pits erupt whenever Chub takes the stage, creating the perfect soundtrack for your next skateboarding video game binge. These Bloodstock Open Air veterans earned their spot by conquering Brighton’s Metal 2 the Masses competition, a triumph well-documented on bassist Zakk’s “Mead and Metal” YouTube channel. Breaking out of their sleepy Eastbourne seaside town through the grassroots Music Collective, Chub spits in the face of the establishment with infectious energy. Their recent singles “QUIT,” “Beer Bong Song,” and “Carolina Reaper” showcase their rowdy approach to metal mayhem. Their legendary Bloodstock New Blood performance featured crowd-surfing dinosaurs and was the festival’s wildest party.
“Microwave Dave 2025” by Chub explodes out of the gate with raw, unfiltered energy. Those growling vocals and aggressive riffs establish the tone immediately, but it’s at the 40-second mark where things truly ignite. The composition is brilliantly chaotic – electric riffs blazing, drums pounding relentlessly, and vocals that match the intensity beat for beat. It’s impressive how the vocalist maintains such fierce energy while staying in perfect sync with the frenetic instrumental backing.

The song’s satirical narrative about Microwave Dave is darkly hilarious. Through its over-the-top storyline, it offers pointed commentary on British working-class culture and excessive consumption. The theatrical elements, especially those “Na na, God save Microwave Dave” crowd chants and Deep Fried Dan’s narration, add a punk opera quality that makes the social commentary more digestible through humor.

What’s particularly effective is how the musical chaos mirrors the lyrical themes – everything is pushed to the extreme, creating a perfect storm of sound and story. That hook “Microwave Dave” burrows into your brain, making the message impossible to forget. It’s a masterclass in using humor and heavy music to deliver social commentary while keeping the energy at maximum throughout.
