King Parrot Have the Rich in Their Sights with New Single “Target Pig Elite”
Fresh off their tour with Pantera and Power Trip, Australian grindcore outfit King Parrot dropped a new single off their forthcoming album A Young Person’s Guide To King Parrot titled “Target Pig Elite”. And if you’re a regular person that’s sick of watching modern day robber barons take your shit, this one’s got just the right amount of rage for you.
Explosive right out of the gate, “Target Pig Elite” sees King Parrot go absolutely bonkers for two and a half minutes. Vocalist Matt Young explained how this song came about and what it means to the band.
“This is a special one for us as we’ve really wanted to honor our late friend Boyd Synnott with this new record. His massive contributions to our band over the years cannot be understated. It’s his artwork idea and concept for the album cover too. Incorporating his animation with this intense live footage adds a unique element that serves both song and video well.
“Lyrically, the track is self-explanatory. The world is moving into unprecedented times and rather than turning on each other, our aim should be focused on those causing the chaos in this world.”
A Young Person’s Guide To King Parrot will be released on June 6 via Housecore Records, but you can preorder your copy today. You can also catch them on their European tour with Master starting tonight. The full list of dates can be found below.
