The Meanies - Zamboni (Vinyl 7")
Legendary Melbourne punks The Meanies are set to release their first new music since 2020 in the form of new double A side 7" single ‘Zamboni / I Agree’. We have a New Zealand Exclusive Yellow variant released by Leather Jacket Records Ōtautahi in association with Cheersquad, a limited edition of just 75! Following their 3rd tour of Japan later this year, The Meanies will next set their sights on Aotearoa, announcing that they will tour NZ in Feb 2025!
Another masterpiece from the brain of Link Meanie, ‘Zamboni’ (a vehicle that cleans and smooths the surface of a sheet of ice, for those playing at home – it also rhymes with baloney) is about “the darkest side of pragmatism in politics. Imagine an outrageous, hypothetical situation as a politician where you support and defend a pathologically lying, hate mongering, rapist conman and then justifying it to your children knowing full well that you lack any real conviction.” (Link Meanie)
Flip over to ‘I Agree’ - do you have that friend that is an expert when it comes to politics and world issues? Rants at their friends about the atrocities out there, knowing full well that their friends agree, and they may as well just be shouting at the wind? Link says “This is about those people who want to throw the baby out with the bathwater; politically speaking that is. No babies were harmed in the making of this statement.”
