Militarie Gun are officially back with “Thought You Were Waving,” the Los Angeles band’s first proper new music since their excellent 2023 debut album, Life Under the Gun . Stream it below.
“Thought You Were Waving” was created by the Consequence rising artist to watch with Zachary Dawes (Lana Del Rey, Sharon van Etten). A tongue-in-cheek track all about misunderstanding, it finds vocalist Ian Shelton singing lyrics like, “I thought you were waving/ Turns out you were drowning/ Pull me down, just save me next time.”
In the Neta Ben Ezra-directed music video, the members of Militarie Gun passively get involved in all sorts of ridiculous situations, such as letting a robber steal all their belongings, ignoring a burning house, and disposing of dead bodies. Watch it below.
Earlier this year, Militarie Gun dropped their EP Life Under the Sun , which reimagined five songs from Life Under the Gun . More recently, they created the song “Gun Under the Gun (MFG)” as the walk-in music for Post Malone’s WWE 2K24 video game character.
