about

The Meanies' second single of their new album Desperate Measures, which is slated for release on Wednesday 8 July 2020 via Wally "Meanie" Kempton's Cheersquad Records & Tapes. The album is available for pre-order right now on special translucent purple vinyl, classic black vinyl, CD and digitally.

To Meanies frontman Link Meanie, latest single ‘Jekyll and Hide’ depicts a turbulent journey through the shit show of life, while a culture of nauseating superficiality parades on past.

“‘Jekyll and Hide’ is a story about riding a raft of shoddy construction down the river of life,” says Link.

“The river is a torrent of shit, blood and acid and constantly threatens the rafts integrity. To rub salt in the wound, Stepford people race past, laughing on their glistening jet skis and spraying you with the foetid contents. The hard wooden planks of the raft's deck are the enemy of your screaming haemorrhoids. It's a nice day though.”

Accompanying the track is another suitably-freakish animation by Link, only this time, what started as a spoof of a dated animal-pal adventure story fast transformed into a Lord of the Rings / Monty Python saga.
