Joe & The Shitboys return with new single ‘Pull The Trigger’

It comes ahead of the Faroese punks’ first UK tour this month

Faroese punks Joe & The Shitboys have returned with a new single called ‘Pull The Trigger’ – watch its accompanying video below.

The track, the band’s first since 2020, arrives ahead of their first ever UK tour, which takes place later this month.

Speaking of the new track, frontman Joe says: “You know those people, typically men, typically straight, typically white, that say the most offensive things online and call people snowflakes, but then start crying about free speech whenever their hateful rhetoric is contested? That’s who ‘Pull the Trigger’ is about.”

Discussing the ‘Pull The Trigger’ video, Joe adds: “In the video, one of these men is seen gunning down Joe & The Shitboys in cyberspace in hilarious fashion. Fittingly filmed in a tiny park that’s only a big deal in this tiny nation.”

The band’s debut UK tour begins later this month, and features a London show at the Old Blue Last on 17th September.
