King Parrot will release their fourth full-length album this June

King Parrot, an Australian grindcore band, has returned after a pause in recent years. They are putting out their first full-length album since the “Holed Up in the Lair” EP in 2020 and “Ugly Produce” in 2017. On June 6, Housecore Records is scheduled to release it in digital, CD, vinyl, and cassette formats under the title “A Young Person’s Guide”. According to singer Matt Young, King Parrot took a different approach on this record. He collaborated extensively with Andrew Livingstone-Squires, a guitarist. King Parrot released the album’s first song, “Fuck You And The Horse You Rode In On,” along with the album’s announcement. Dan Farmer, who produced the music video, drew inspiration from the 1996 movie “Trainspotting”.

Throughout the mixing process, we ensured that we got every element where we wanted it. Guitar and bass tones were experimented with until we found exactly what we wanted, the drum sounds were just right, and the performance was executed solidly. Vocally, I rehearsed a lot so that when I recorded it was a breeze. Matt Young

This track is dedicated to anyone that has ever crossed you, tried to belittle you or make you feel less than. The title is pretty self-explanatory. There are multiple people in my life from across the past few years that this song goes out to, and there’s a special spot in the lyrics for each of them. Cowards, abusers, bullies and creeps, ‘Fuck You And the Horse You Rode In On!’ The video process was challenging. It ain’t easy recreating a scene where a bunch of dudes are diving into a toilet bowl! We had the best time making it, but it certainly took a lot of effort and commitment from everyone involved. Our video producer, Dan Farmer, is a genius at his craft and his ability to turn our visions into a reality is brilliant. Paying homage to ‘Trainspotting’ was so much fun, and we hope we captured a video that people can return to for years to come. Matt Young on the first single
