Hot Mulligan never stops making GREAT music. Well, that’s how it feels anyway with their new song, “Stickers Of Brian,” out via Wax Bodega Records. The dynamic track explores breaking the generational cycle of modern-day monotony, which the Michigan act is an expert at. A music video accompanies the release and is filled with absolute chaos in the workplace. It features male characters kissing everyone in a boardroom that starts to involve everyone in the vicinity. Vocalist Tades Sanville’s screams carry on behind this unraveling scene with lyrics, “Budgeting how long you’ll be alive/Why talk about it/If I’ve gotta hear… Read more »
