Stream Militarie Gun's 'God Save The Gun (Deluxe)'

09-09-2026

(Orienteer) Militarie Gun releases God Save The Gun (Deluxe) today via Loma Vista Recordings. The extended version of their celebrated 2025 album God Save The Gun contains the recently-shared "World's Always Burning" featuring Mannequin Pussy along with previously unreleased songs "I've Said Too Much" featuring Dazy, "3 AM," and "Thought You Were Waving [Anthony's Version]," which is a cover by Anthony Green (Circa Survive, L.S. Dunes, Saosin).

Each of the new songs outside of the cover were originally recorded to appear on the album, but upon reflection, the band decided they felt more like the next stage of the thought process following the more internal and first person perspective themes explored on God Save The Gun.

Speaking in his own words about God Save The Gun (Deluxe) vocalist Ian Shelton shares: "Everything in 'God Save The Gun' became so focused on the internal, that when it came to fitting these songs in, it felt like they had stepped outside of that perspective. In my head these songs started to form into the feeling of finally coming to after being so caught up in your own head, and then realizing the rest of the world is still out there and you haven't been actively participating."

Additionally, Shelton shares about working with Anthony Green:"Anthony doing a version of 'Thought You Were Waving' is one of the most surreal things. I always love when a cover can, in my opinion, surpass the original version. I hear decisions that Anthony made on it and I go, 'Damn, why didn't I think of that?'

When we decided to do the song together, it was because he had previously sent me a video of him doing it. So I thought, why don't we make a real version of this? To me, it proves that a song can just be the first draft of an idea. I think that Anthony improved the song and made it better, and his version now gets stuck in my head instead of my own."
