Tim Heidecker commemorates Another Year In Hell with new batch of Trump parody songs
Tim Heidecker’s got plenty on his plate right now, including a supporting role in Jordan Peele’s Us and a tour with his On Cinema At The Cinema cohort Gregg Turkington. He’s still making time for music, though, following up on 2016's In Glendale and 2017's Too Dumb For Suicide, a collection of songs about our messy president, with Another Year In Hell: Collected Songs From 2018.
Out today via Jagjaguwar, the EP is another reaction to a nation under Trump, its six songs of buoyant AM pop-rock serving as parodic portraits of the MAGA sect’s most abhorrent archetypes, from incels to 8chan’s QAnon loonies. “While Too Dumb For Suicide made us question when we should stop laughing at our current administration’s incompetence, this release reckons with the disasters that occur at the intersection of stupidity and cruelty,” reads a press release.
