Amyl And The Sniffers return with new single, U Should Not Be Doing That
Watch the video for Amyl And The Sniffers’ U Should Not Be Doing That, a song about “the bitchy high school way that the music community still is”.
- Words:
- Emily Carter
As teased last week, Amyl And The Sniffers are back with brand-new music!
The Aussie faves – Amy Taylor, Dec Martens, Gus Romer and Bryce Wilson – have just unleashed their first new single in three years, U Should Not Be Doing That, along with an accompanying B-side called Facts.
“Lyrically they’re both self-explanatory,” says Amy. “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.”
