Joe & The Shitboys unveil double A-side single, "POINTLESS VANDALIST" / "OUT FOR A HUNT"
Joe & The Shitboys have shared the AA single "POINTLESS VANDALIST" / "OUT FOR A HUNT" which is taken from their forthcoming release, Greatest Shits.
The band reveals that "POINTLESS VANDALIST" is for all the people who think they’re James Dean in Rebel Without a Cause, without considering that this is also “what Kid Rock thinks of himself.”
“Destructive behaviour with a disregard for consequences is the cause of most of the issues in the history of mankind,” says frontman Joe of the track, “and you are a self-centered piece of shit if you do it. There are more constructive ways to be edgy, sweetheart. Don’t leave the world a net negative when you leave.”
"OUT FOR A HUNT" is a short and sweet story about a guy that we’ve all seen. “He’s probably been in your life, or is still there,” says Joe of the character. “It’s the guy who’s trying to pick up gals, but none of the tricks that he read in the pick-up artist book—that he bought online—work, and this is most definitely because they are mean because he did everything the book said and none of the girls would even try sucking him off. By the time you’re done reading this, the song is already finished.”
Greatest Shits will be released on 29 August via Alcopop! Records, and is available to pre-order now.
