it&#8217;s time to start assessing which lockdown projects you&#8217;re going to keep going in a post-vaccination world. Maybe you started baking, but will you still have the energy for <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/trip-and-travel\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"10\" title=\"Trip &amp; Travel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">trip<\/a>le chocolate cookies when it&#8217;s far easier to pick them up at the store? Sure, your vow to watch every movie on the Criterion Channel was laudable but the sun is shining now and your friends want to hang out. Sorry, Luis Bu\u00f1uel you&#8217;ll have to wait. <\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div>\n<p>            One man who certainly isn&#8217;t giving up on things he started in 2020, however, is Ian Shelton. Fans of hardcore and heavy music in <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a> will know Shelton as one of the busiest men in the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a> and the central figure in grindcore smashers Regional Justice Center, whose excellent debut album <i>Crime and Punishment<\/i> dropped in March. He also fronts the more melodic <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/militariegun.bandcamp.com\/album\/my-life-is-over\">Militarie Gun<\/a>, who formed last year and whose new song \u201cDon\u2019t Pick Up The Phone\u201d is premiering below. It&#8217;s the first song ahead of the band releasing two EPs in the coming months, handily titled <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/alternativeslabel.com\/\"><i>All Roads Lead To The Gun<\/i><\/a> and <i>All Roads Lead To The Gun II<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p>            &#8220;Don&#8217;t Pick Up The Phone&#8221; draws major inspiration from the melodic post-hardcore of the \u201990s as well as more alternative-leaning acts like Guided By Voices. In little over two minutes Shelton and his bandmates, guitarists Nick Cogan (Drug Church) and William Acu\u00f1a, drummer Vince Nguyen (Modern Color), and bassist Max Epstein, balance rage, paranoia, and escapism in something that both jangles and howls. It&#8217;s a delicate thing to pull off but Militarie Gun sound wounded and pretty in equal measures. <\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div>\n<p>            Lyrically, Shelton uses &#8220;Don&#8217;t Pick Up The Phone&#8221; to pick at his own creative drive and question what it is that pushes him to be as prolific as he is. Speaking to The FADER about the new song, Shelton said: &#8220;I once took a bad <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a> phone call while I was on mushrooms. I easily could have, and definitely should have, waited until I was sober. Hearing that kind of news in an altered state can make you feel like your world is literally ending and there\u2019s really no way out until your brain returns to normal. For the video I tried to recreate that feeling of something latching on to you and, despite your best efforts to calm or numb your brain, you still feel like you\u2019ll succumb to it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>            Militarie Gun will release <i>All Roads Lead To The Gun<\/i> on June 4 via Alternatives Label with <i>All Roads Lead To The Gun II<\/i> due September 10 via Convulse Records.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content_block paragraph triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<style>\n<\/style>\n<div id=\"content_block-222027\" class=\"content_block paragraph embed triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left center_align\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"media_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"\">\n    <iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Militarie Gun - Don&#039;t Pick Up The Phone (Official Music Video)\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vgkMV8XzKYQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"author\">\n    <span><br \/>\n      By <span class=\"credit_name\">David Renshaw<\/span><br \/>\n  <\/span><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
