Hot Mulligan - The Sound A Body Makes When It’s Still (August 22, 2025) • Page 9

I got them sent over for the review, they'll likely be on Genius by tomorrow

 

yeah I'll probably just wait until they're up.

Looks like the lyrics are up here:

Hot Mulligan song lyrics : 17 lyrics

 

The whiplash between the goofy-ass this-shoulda-been-a-placeholder titles and the actual lyrical content is just... off the scale with this one

 

Yep, these are legit!

 

Despite the lyrics, my first impression is that this is actually an easier listen than the last one. Musically it feels less suffocating or something; there’s more breathing room and it generally feels a little lighter. Really impressed - the band has done it yet again.

Monster Burger and a $5 Beer is so good. That opening guitar is soooo You’ll Be Fine.

 

No spoilers please. I am not a sinner and will wait until tomorrow to listen.

 

Musically it's less closed-in than WWIW but lyrically it's like... how dare they make songs this sad be so fucking catchy? So impressive.

 

holy shit this is good

 

Immediate top 5 AOTY

 

Obviously haven’t heard this but all their lyrics are pretty depressing, these are more depressing?

 

I will withhold further comment until tomorrow (and a few more listens) but I will say that I’m just as grateful for this band as always.

 

Love how this manages to both sound like Hot Mully and also sound different then the rest of what they have done in the past

 

well alrighty then, hopefully I can listen in a bit.

 

I mention in my review that it's kinda their thing but it's still probably the most gutting record I've heard all year

 

ugh. just read the lyrics to the opener and i don't think i'm ready for THAT.

 

Glad i got tickets for my show in November, looks like the entire run is sold out aside from a few dates

 

I’m not a fan of the joke titles. I can never remember which song is which lol

 

Valid honestly, sometimes I'm like what the FUCK Hot Mulligan song is in my head and 'the one with the jokey song title' does NOT help

 

Man this album is great. I just want to play it over and over

 

Love the band absolutely hate the titles

 

Another fucking great album.

 

Slumdog is going to absolutely rule live.
