Bristol post punk/art rock/post rock band Shoun Shoun have shared their new single “We Woke The Monster” alongside a video.
With angular melodies and cascading drums, ‘We Woke The Monster’ is a loud condemnation of every terrible relationship you’ve ever had. It loads up their genre defying playstyle to deal with the effects of gaslighting and emotional abuse. It talks about narcissistic people that have an inflated sense of self-importance, a lack of empathy and use charm and deceit to manipulate the people around them. Affected people begin to question their own sanity and reality.
“‘We Woke The Monster’ is about waking up to this reality and walking away.”

Originally from Berlin, the now Bristol based band consists of Annette Berlin (guitar, vox), Boris Ming (keys, violin, vox), Ole Rudd (bass), and Jake Monro (drums). They describe their music as “unflinching, atmospheric noise pop and art psych rock with the urban ennui of Nico and the noise of Sonic Youth”.
