Music
Context: "lo staccato trascinante del basso e i fendenti distorti della chitarra dominano la travolgente Art Of Self Defense; una tempesta di staccato boogie incendia Dancing Naked Ladies (piu' heavymetal di qualsiasi altra cosa registrata dal gruppo in passato, e forse il brano piu' lineare della loro carriera). Il sound e' in effetti dinamitardo come nei migliori dischi di rock sudista, e Puss ha forse i riff piu' epidermici."
So, how would you suggest to describe the song "Puss" when the author uses the word epidermic?

Not totally sure about this, but it seems an obvious interpretation.

Googling "musica epidermica" seems to confirm this. You could also say "catchy" or "memorable" or anything along those lines.
