Kendra Sheetz Toronto punk trio The Mendozaz recently released a new single off their new EP, The Completely Fictional History Of This Great Nation of Canada. The new song, entitled “Late Stage 12 Gauge,” is part of the upcoming eight-song concept album, which will be released on November 3rd via Cartridge Heart.
Like the rest of the record, the track takes aim at an entirely fabricated chapter of Canadian lore, in this case a web of imagined affairs, a dozen restraining orders, and one very ill-advised bromance cover-up. Beneath the grin-inducing hooks, the lyrics spin a tale of paranoia, jealousy, and shotgun standoffs that feels just plausible enough to make you wonder if it really happened
The band shared the following:
“As any single guy will tell you, having platonic female friends is a bit of a minefield. Even the most well-meaning of us are going to have to deal with jealous significant others from time to time. The last thing you want is to set off the heat-packing husbands (and weapon-wielding wives) of the world. There’s a whole population of people who think ‘Netflix and Chill’ actually means ‘Netflix and Chill’ and they have no idea the toes they’re stepping on.”
