The Mean Times create infectious, high-energy rock and roll with a let-loose-and-party attitude. Their sound is a pastiche of indie cool with sharp, scuzzy riffs and catchy pop choruses, all delivered with tongue-in-cheek lyrics and a hell of a lot of swagger.

“‘Be Still My Bleeding Heart’ is a rollicking adventure that conjures chase scenes, slapstick comedy and a casual distaste for dickheads. It has high-energy horns and gruff vocals channelling The Saints – the greatest AFL football team of 1966 and a pretty nifty Australian punk rock band. It’s both a kick in the teeth and rigorous massage, all the while having a little go at everyone who pisses me off in everyday life. From those pretending to be your mate on street corners so you’ll give them money to pass onto a charity they know nothing about; to music scenesters who think they’re cooler than you because they know cooler people than you and think that your music is off trend; to grumpy old men who hold stubborn opinions on topics of which they know nothing and the encroaching fear that in writing songs like this I’m in grave danger of eventually becoming one myself!”
Tom Morgan (vocals/guitar)
