Hot Mulligan have just released a new single, I Don’t Think It’s The Right Time For Emojis.
Following last year’s The Sound A Body Makes When It’s Still album, the Michigan emos’ surprise B-side arrives ahead of their European and UK tour, launching tomorrow (February 20) in Brussels.
Vocalist Tades shares of the meaning behind the song, “Zealotry is probably going to kill us all. Which is fine, guess. It’s no better or worse than any other kind of annihilation. There’s some people of faith who seem to understand not everyone has to care what their book says, and that deserves thanks. But judging by how many people are showing up for the mega-church Sunday spectacular, complete with pyro and wirework, the meek are not likely to inherit the earth.
“Joel Osteen locked people outside during Hurricane Harvey. Kenneth Copeland uses his church to buy planes, fancy cars and houses. The camel can apparently very easily fit through the eye of the needle. David Easterwood is a pastor who runs an ICE field office on the side. Half of the archdiocese's job is to cover for paedophiles.
“I think some people can do it right. They’re nice people with a big nice ghost and I don’t mind that one bit. But I think most people are just so afraid to die that they can look past the evil thing their church has become.”

- Hot Mulligan: “We cut our teeth in basements… We’re doing pretty much the same thing now but really loud, and on a stage that’s slightly higher”
- Pierce The Veil: “We’ve built this whole world where we can do anything creatively, and it’s so satisfying and comforting”
- Hot Mulligan: “Everything fell into place… There’s a lot less searching and a lot more finding, y’know?”
