Military Group Reveals Upcoming Album Title: God Save the Gun, Debuts First Single: B A D I D E A
Militarie Gun, the critically acclaimed band led by frontman Ian Shelton, is set to release their second album, God Save The Gun, on October 17 via Loma Vista. The upcoming album consists of 14 tracks, each offering a raw and authentic exploration of personal struggles and vices.
In an interview with Rolling Stone, Shelton discussed his views on addiction and the romanticism of rock bottom, revealing that his own battle with addiction deeply influenced the album's content. Over the past few years, Shelton found himself actively struggling with addiction, a stark departure from his previous straight-edge lifestyle. This personal journey is reflected in the album's candid and vulnerable lyrics.
The first single from God Save The Gun, "B A D I D E A", is out now. The video for the song, directed by Shelton himself, is a celebration of vices and a new iteration of oneself looking back at a moment of mistake. The video, noted as the band's most technically challenging, visually represents the idea of reflecting on poor decisions without fully reckoning with them.
The tracklist for God Save The Gun includes 14 songs:
- Pt II
- B A D I D E A
- Fill Me With Paint
- Throw Me Away
- God Owes Me Money
- Daydream
- Maybe I'll Burn My Life Down
- Kick
- Laugh at Me
- Wake Up and Smile
- I Won't Murder Your Friend
- Isaac's Song
- Thought You Were Waving
- God Save the Gun
Shelton describes God Save The Gun as an "absurdist guide to the intersection of self-destruction and self-belief". He admits that his vulnerability in the album may be used as a marketing hook, but the album is more than just a reflection of his personal struggles. It's a candid and vulnerable expression of his journey through personal difficulties, offering an honest portrayal of the human experience.
God Save The Gun is a follow-up to the acclaimed Life Under The Gun album. Those who have followed Militarie Gun's music will find the new album to be a natural progression, as the band continues to push boundaries and explore new themes.
