Shitney Beers start the expedition to their third album "Amity Island", which will be released on Grand Hotel van Cleef and Zeitstrafe on 13.12.2024! The first single "Maya Hawke" is available to stream everywhere from September 27th and it's all there: Fluffy synthesizer earworm hook, the most beautiful and self-confident late summer guitar solo the German indie rock scene has ever seen and instantly igniting sparkly, creaky nineties pop grunge melodies - is it the queerfeminist "teenage dirtbag" we all wanted? Yes!
The album also features 12 new gems from the extraordinary Hamburg band, which follow on from the 2022 hit album "This is Pop" and show Shitney Beers in an even broader position: More instrumentation (banjo, strings) and creamy choirs, with "Done" featuring Brockhoff, the new "Don't let the sun go down on me" is also included. A dream and, despite the nineties college rock borrowings, highly contemporary in terms of content (especially "N4N") and an important album for the FLINTA* scene. AND of course "Amity Island" is also going on tour in spring 2025! Not to be missed.
