New Music : God Save The Pony

           

The Black Country punk duo comprised of Joe Hicklin and Callum Moloney, Big Special,  have dropped their new record "National Average". Lead singer Joe Hicklin said of their new single: "God Save The Pony" is about the stones we carry. The different things that pull people down; the invisible weights that they have to drag through their everyday. The follow up to 2024’s ‘Post Industrial Hometown Blues’ loses none of the band’s "early fire or potency, and instead expands their sound to incorporate elements of funk, lavishing it with their characteristic darkness and black humour, honestly representing their lives in the only way they know how. It focuses on brotherhood, pressing on through the changes in their lives, big and small."
