Teen Jesus & The Jean Teasers release new single ‘BAIT’

ARIA Award-winning indie-rock four-piece Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers return with their “big ego, full menace mode” single ‘BAIT,’ the latest from their highly anticipated new album GLORY — out November 7 via Mom + Pop Music (+ Community Music in AU/NZ). The new track drops alongside its official video which was filmed, edited and directed by the band’s very own Neve van Boxsel.

On new single ‘BAIT,’ Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers are at their most biting and satirical, writing from the perspective of the worst person you’ve ever met: the ego-driven music industry man who thinks he’s God’s gift. Propelled by a thick, muddy bass riff and punctuated by cowbell, Anna Ryan’s almost robotic vocals reflect this man’s general disinterest and come underpinned by restrained guitars chopping in off beat and swirling. “‘BAIT’ is big ego, full menace mode.” the band shares. “We wrote it in LA, channeling a delusional man who thinks he’s God’s gift to earth. It was fun to cosplay as someone we’d all probably hate in real life.”
