BE YOUR OWN PET – ” Mommy “

Posted: July 27, 2023 in MUSIC

Nashville punks Be Your Own Pet have returned with another explosive new single entitled “Big Trouble.” The track will be featured on their forthcoming album “Mommy”, out via Third Man Records on August 25th. Said vocalist Jemima Pearl about the track, “I live in a country that has taken away the basic human right to an abortion and then has the audacity to ask ‘why are you so angry?’ ‘Big Trouble’ is about how the daily injustices are all connected to the overarching societal issues of living in a patriarchy.”

Be Your Own Pet returned with new music after nearly 15 years apart. They re-introduced themselves with tracks “Hand Grenade,” “Worship the Whip,” and most recently “Goodtime!”.

The Nashville, Tennessee, garage rock group were signed as teenagers to the prestigious XL in the UK and Thurston Moore’s Ecstatic Peace label in the US, with whom they released two widely acclaimed albums. They went on to tour with the likes of Arctic Monkeys, Sonic Youth, Le Tigre etc and have been cited as influences for groups such as Paramore and Big Joanie.

Now they return with their first album in 15 years on Third Man Records. It explosive, scuzzy and full of fireballs of energetic nuggets. Welcome back!!
