The Meringues “Royalty”

The Meringues, Kingston, Ontario’s post-punk powerhouse, are thrilled to announce the release of their new single “Royalty” on August 14th. This track is the advance single from their eagerly anticipated sophomore album, Pavlova’s Dog, which will be available on September 16th, 2024. At the heart of The Meringues are Amanda Pants and Ted Evans, whose dynamic vocal interplay and onstage antics blur the line between playful banter and intense rivalry.

Their unique chemistry is supported by the solid rhythm section of Jackson Baird on bass and Alastair Morrison on drums, creating a thrilling atmosphere that threatens to spiral out of control while maintaining a clear artistic vision. The Meringues’ sound is sure to resonate with fans of Pixies, Weezer, The Strokes, The Beaches, Amyl and the Sniffers, July Talk, Wet Leg, Wolf Alice, and PUP.

In their words

Amanda Pants explains the new single: “It’s that feeling of having idealized someone, only to discover they didn’t deserve it. Or when you thought you knew someone, but they revealed a different side. This song explores the disorienting feeling of realizing you were wrong about someone or something.” The recording of “Royalty” took place at multiple locations, including Metalworks Studios in Mississauga, Todd’s Place in Harrowsmith, and Fake Cake Lodge in Kingston.

The drum recording was engineered by Camille Comeau, with additional recording by Ted Evans. Mixing was handled by Ian Docherty, while the mastering was expertly completed by Elisa Kady Pangsaeng at CPS Mastering in Vancouver, BC.

The new video for “Royalty” was directed, shot, and edited by Josh Lyon (akaflk productions). Ted Evans shares his experience: “The video shoot was in a beautiful, older building with no air conditioning on one of the hottest days of the year. Working with Josh was fantastic; he really brought the video to life.

Jackson, our bassist, was featured prominently, especially in the bass-driven section after the guitar solo, which is one of my favorite parts of the album.” “Initially, I didn’t think Royalty would make the album, but once the lyrics came together, it took on a different feeling for the band. Alastair and Jackson added parts that quickly made it a standout track. Eventually, we realized Royalty had to be a single, and the music video has solidified it as a band favorite.”

The Meringues

Known for their explosive live shows, The Meringues deliver a captivating performance that keeps audiences on the edge of their seats. Their dynamic presence has earned them opportunities to open for established artists like Protest the Hero and perform at festivals such as Spring Reverb. The band’s acclaim is further highlighted by charting across Canada at college radio and winning Best Music Video for “The Lottery” at the Kingston Canadian Film Festival in 2020.

Pavlova’s Dog, their sophomore album, continues to explore the intersection of fun and dysfunction that The Meringues have perfected. Spanning from deep psychological themes to playful, child-like perspectives, the album features 11 tracks that weave these elements together seamlessly. With catchy melodies and sharply poignant lyrics, The Meringues reveal their true essence as a band, capturing the complexity of human relationships and the dark undercurrents of self-doubt and personal struggle. Pavlova’s Dog is set to solidify The Meringues’ place in the post-punk landscape, showcasing their focused energy and artistic prowess.
