\"Death<\/p>\n

Although summer might already be a distant memory for some of us, Bournemouth quartet Death By Shotgun<\/b> are on hand with a dose of surf punk that is sun-soaked and introspective in equal measure. Their forthcoming EP, ‘Good Times \/\/ Sad Times’<\/i>, combines summery powerpop choruses with a weathered punk core. As its title suggests, the six songs on ‘Good Times \/\/ Sad Times’<\/i> captures the ups and downs the band have experienced over the past year.<\/p>\n

With its sincere lyrics and heartwarming instrumentation, their latest single\u00a0‘Lines’<\/i>\u00a0serves as a fine introduction to what the South Coast four-piece have to offer. Ahead of the release of\u00a0‘Good Times \/\/ Sad Times’<\/i>\u00a0on October 19th on\u00a0Beth Shalom<\/b> Records<\/strong>, we’re premiering the video for ‘Lines’.<\/em><\/p>\n

It sees Death By Shotgun<\/strong> capture an ideal summers day; hanging out, drinking some cans, and taking a dive into the pool. But\u00a0then again this is the UK and the British Summer weather is never perfect. As vocalist\/guitarist\u00a0Dom Wright explains below, the inevitable downpour of rain hindered the making of the video. Nevertheless, as the video shows they made a good thing out of a bad situation, which is something\u00a0Death By Shotgun\u00a0<\/strong>know all about.<\/p>\n

AH: Today we\u2019re premiering the video for ‘Lines’<\/i> from your upcoming ‘Good Times \/\/ Sad Times’<\/i> EP. First of all, what is the track about?<\/b>
\nDom: Thank you for premiering it!! The song is about a few things but mainly about that someone who keeps you grounded and makes you happy, even when life can be a bit weird. It\u2019s also about making the most of a bad situation and staying in touch with old friends.<\/i><\/p>\n

AH: The video sees you donning Hawaiian shirts, diving in swimming pools and playing with water guns. What did you make of the video making experience? It looks pretty fun to us. <\/b>
\nDom: It was well fun to film just really cold! Our friend Ollie was kind enough to let us use his pool and drink beers round his house, which was nice. We were meant to shoot it all outside but it chucked it down with rain on the day, so had to do some of it inside his shed in the end. We were also lucky enough to work with our new mate Joe Hoey on the video who absolutely smashed it!<\/i>
