Amyl and The Sniffers share new single
Amyl and The Sniffers are back with their first new music in over three years. Yes please!
New single U Should Not Be Doing That is backed by B-side, Facts.
Recorded with Nick Launay (Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Yeah Yeah Yeahs), the first new music from the Melbourne punkers since 2021’s sophomore LP Comfort To Me.
Speaking about the new music, vocalist Amy Taylor says: “Lyrically they’re both pretty self-explanatory. ‘U Should Not Be Doing That’ makes me laugh, but it’s also in a way poking fun at the shock that people still feel at a little bit of skimpy clothing, and the bitchy high school way that the music community still is (yes I’m talking to you random 40 year old metalheads sitting around a table doing lines and bitching about a 28 year old chick in a band for wearing shorts and “selling out”) but it mainly makes me laugh.
“It’s unconscious and meant nothing at the time of writing it but now I think it’s a comedic way of rubbing the dog’s nose in its own dog piss after it wee’d on your favourite rug or something.”
The band have also released a new music video for U Should Not Be Doing That, shot by their long-time collaborator PHC Films. The video was filmed in Los Angeles and features Better Call Saul’s Steven Ogg.
