Militarie Gun by Nolan Knight “God Owes Me Money”  LISTEN: https://i.militariegun.com/godowesmemoney WATCH: https://i.militariegun.com/godowesmemoneyvis God Save The Gun PRE-ORDER / SAVE: https://fm.militariegun.com/gstg What the press is saying about Militarie Gun so far: “stretched the concept of what hardcore can be, weaving in melody and riffy hooks more befitting stadium rock” Rolling Stone “‘God Save The Gun’ is far and away the group’s strongest album to date” Highsnobiety “Militarie Gun know how to turn bleak problems into enlivening music” Stereogum  (October 13, 2025) - Ahead of the release of their anticipated new album God Save The Gun, arriving this Friday via Loma Vista Recordings, Los Angeles-based Militarie Gun shares the new single “God Owes Me Money,” which is BBC Radio 1’s Hottest Record In The World today and was described by Rolling Stone as “tragically catchy.” “God Owes Me Money” is a focal point of the new album, showcasing a new dimension of Militarie Gun’s catalog with its earworm of a hook, synth melodies and an arena-ready chorus. Last week, Militarie Gun was unveiled as the digital cover star for Highsnobiety, where in the story the band discussed the making of God Save The Gun, vocalist Ian Shelton’s role as bandleader, and the ways in which substance abuse and relationships to addiction serve as narrative throughlines across the forthcoming album.  This Thursday, October 16th, Militarie Gun will celebrate the record release at Oblivion in Los Angeles, California. The free event will begin at 7PM and includes an art exhibition with photographs from the making of God Save The Gun along with a performance from the band. Check out the flyer below.  God Save The Gun will include the aforementioned “God Owes Me Money,” along with the previously shared singles “B A D I D E A” and “Throw Me Away,” both of which arrived alongside videos directed by Shelton. God Save The Gun is a very human document of being at your worst when you should be on top of the world – an absurdist guide to the intersection of self-destruction and self-belief. "I’m well aware that being this vulnerable turns my personal trauma into a marketing hook for this album,” Shelton says. “But I’m fine with it, if not provoking it. Over the past couple years, as I spoke about addiction from the perspective of someone affected by it, I became the one struggling with it. There’s a farcical logic to entering a situation, fully knowing the consequences, and doing it anyway – but that’s where my head was when I started leaning on drinking.”  Militarie Gun’s 2023 debut album, Life Under The Gun was centered around lifelong cycles of hurt, with the singer looking back at growing up with family members struggling with addiction, and while God Save The Gun is still tethered to that history, this time, he’s not the witness—he’s the protagonist. It wasn’t until the band was scheduled to enter the studio in early 2025 that Shelton realized he was the one who needed to hear God Save The Gun’s message. Despite all of the inner turmoil leading to God Save The Gun, Shelton and his bandmates – guitarists William Acuña and Kevin Kiley, bassist Waylon Trim, and drummer David Stalsworth – more than rose to the challenge of following up Militarie Gun’s acclaimed debut. Stalsworth, Trim, and Kiley all joined during Life Under The Gun’s extensive touring cycle after a series of member shakeups that would hobble most bands, but only made Militarie Gun stronger.  Along with the honed in line up, God Save The Gun was created with a village of new and old collaborators. Shelton continued his creative relationship with songsmith Phillip Odom, co-wrote with longtime conspirator and frequent harmonizer James Goodson of Dazy, and newly tapped Nick Panella of MSPAINT, among others. Militarie Gun also worked with producer / engineer Riley MacIntyre (Adele, Arlo Parks, The Kills), who was chosen not only to make the songs sound huge, but also to access the sentiments behind them. To celebrate the release of God Save The Gun, Militarie Gun will embark on The BAD IDEA tour this month with support from Liquid Mike and Public Opinion. The 21-date kicks off in Palm Springs, California on October 25th with stops in Louisville, Worcester, Baltimore, Richmond, New Orleans, Houston and more before wrapping up in Albuquerque, New Mexico on November 22nd. Top of next year, Militarie Gun will head across the pond for their headline Europe and UK tour with support from White Reaper and Spite House. Also in 2026, Militarie Gun will join Joyce Manor across their North American spring tour. Full live dates below and tickets available HERE. Militarie Gun’s debut album Life Under The Gun was one of 2023's most celebrated albums, released to praise from the likes of Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, NME, Revolver, Stereogum, SPIN, Paste, The FADER, and more. Last year, Militarie Gun released the Life Under The Sun EP, which saw tracks from their debut album reimagined by friends and collaborators including Bully, Manchester Orchestra, and Mannequin Pussy. Militarie Gun also released the Life Under The Sun mini-documentary which sees the band and a host of their Life Under The Sun EP collaborators reunite at Manchester Orchestra’s Atlanta studio to further reimagine the tracks featured on their aforementioned EP, with guest performances from Manchester Orchestra, Marisa Dabice of Mannequin Pussy, and Christine Goodwyne of Pool Kids, who steps in for Alicia Bognanno of Bully for a performance of “Never Fucked Up Twice.” Also last year, Militarie Gun shared “Gun Under The Gun (MFG),” which was created for the new WWE 2K24 video game as the walk-in music for Post Malone’s wrestling character. Post Malone also included “Do It Faster” on his curated playlist for the WWE 2K24 soundtrack.  Check out “God Owes Me Money” and pre-order / save God Save The Gun above, see full live dates and album details below and stay tuned for more from Militarie Gun.
