songs about fucking idiots

  • songs about cover lgeThe loveable (or hateable) knuckleheads, The Owen Guns, will release their new single "Me and My Big Mouth" across all streaming platforms on April 17.  You'll find the link to the premiere at 0900 (AEST) on the same day below, after the fold,

    It's the second single by the bnand based in Wollongong, New South Wales, from their forthcoming album "Songs About Fucking Idiots". The long player (with no apologies to Big Black) will be released on May 22 (on vinyl, CD, and streaming) through Outtaspace Presents and Booker/Bastard Records. 

    Says singer Sean The Bastard about “Me And My Big Mouth”: “It's a song about speaking out, getting into trouble because of it, and being unwilling/unable to change”.

    Backed by a pummelling drum track and the slashing guitar and basswork you've come to expect from this cheeky four-piece, it also features the sterling triangle playing of Jay Whalley (Frenzal Rhomb).

    Those in the know about The Owen Guns’ piss-take attitude and wild performances are have caused “Songs About Fucking Idiots to almost sell out its first pressing in a week.  It’s a signal that the drawbridge has been pulled up and the posts are manned in society’s ivory towers as The Owen Guns are poised to seize the palace.

    “Songs About Fucking Idiots” is sitting at number-three on the Australian Independent Records Chart, along with safer (and nicer) acts like Pete Murrayand Kate Miller-Heidke.  It’s a massive achievement and reflects on The Owen Guns’ loyal following.

    The Owen Guns have been around since 2020, led by Sean St Leone (aka Sean The Bastard),  a raconteur and smart-witted cynic who somehow crosses Uncle Fester from “The Addams Family“ with Dave Vanian from The Damnedand ex-Dead Kennedy Jello Biafra.
