Single of the Week : Amyl and The Sniffers – “U Should Not Be Doing That”
The Aussie punks are back and as unhinged as ever with their explosive new single “U Should Not Be Doing That,” complete with a riotous music video featuring Steven Ogg.
Amy Taylor of the band said ‘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.”
Interview of the month SUNDAY (1994)
Check out my interview with the fabulous SUNDAY (1994 )- Over at Under The Radar.- HERE We were the first US publication to interview Wet Leg (Here) and The Last Dinner Party (Here) and Sunday (1994) are another band I feel can really break on through, due in no small part to being fucking ace.
And if you listen to one playlist, this weekend make sure it’s this one. Not that I’m biased, you understand…. ahem.
