Sydney based Punk Rock outfit This Time Only have just released their new single and music video called ‘Mick From The Pub’, which premiered exclusively via The AU Review. The band have also announced they will be playing a launch show at Oxford Art Factory (Gallery Bar) on March 14 to celebrate the release alongside Tallulah.
“Mick From The Pub drew heavily from Matt’s time working in shitty pubs. It’s about those people everyone knows, the pub regular who’s always got something to say, always got a story, and always seems to be there. On the surface Mick’s funny, loud and full of opinions, but the song is really about what’s sitting underneath that. It’s less about taking the piss and more about looking at that kind of character with a bit of empathy.”
This Time Only are built on sweat, grit, and big hooks. Their songs spit with urgency but land with heart — raw guitars and anthemic choruses set against lyrics that swing between scathing social commentary and lived-in Australian storytelling. Think the unfiltered honesty of The Smith Street Band colliding with the drive of The Menzingers and the punch of The Offspring.
For fans of storytelling as loud as the guitars, This Time Only is the sound of growing up, falling apart, and putting it all back together. New single ‘Mick From The Pub’ is available on all major online stores and streaming services.
