Marlene. A feminist androgynous icon. Berlin in the 1920s. The Sewing Circle. So much inspiration.

Follow Me

A spike of atmospheric grungy, garage rock.

From the off on ‘Did I Play Games’ guitar chords arc like solar flares punctuated by quiet passages of floating-in-space vocals. 

The single ‘Did I Play Games’ is taken of the debut album Monsters & Heroes released January 28th 2022.

Monsters & Heroes

Did I Play Games

Let us take you on a last dance in a dark Berlin shoe gaze style with a hint of Nico.

Schwing Mit Mir

With angular melodies and cascading drums, ‘We Woke The Monster’ is a loud condemnation of every terrible relationship you've ever had. The latest single from Bristol based Shoun Shoun loads up their genre defying playstyle to deal with the effects of gaslighting and emotional abuse. It talks about narcissistic people that have an inflated sense of self-importance, a lack of empathy and use charm and deceit to manipulate the people around them. Affected people begin to question their own sanity and reality.
‘We Woke The Monster’ is about waking up to this reality and walking away.

‘We Woke The Monster’ is due for release April 21st 2024 and will be available on all major streaming platforms.

SHOUN SHOUN - Refresh & Replay

Much Sweeter

Recorded in a garage, mixed in a loft, the neighbour played the bass line - it's a classic 2020 lock-down production.

From Berlin now Bristol based unflinching, atmospheric noise pop and art psych rock with the urban ennui of Nico and the noise of Sonic Youth.

Praise for the debut album Monsters & Heroes:

"Annette Berlin’s Bristol quartet Shoun Shoun release an arresting debut album filled with lo-fi lockdown anxiety and raucous tales of bad behaviour." Louder Than War

"It is rare to successfully capture raw creativity and make it sound good" Music News Monthly

"The range on show has no limits for this quartet... This is an album that tilts on the pinpoint of intrigue and innovation, providing mystery in the direction they may take, a new layer is introduced and the sound diverts in an instant to begin the journey again... the perfect breeding ground for a new immense sound" Noizze

"unpredictably surreal and profound with a garage and post-punk feel ... They have combined a vast array of influences to create the exciting and unpredictable journey that is ‘Monster & Heroes’." John's Music Hub
"Album of the week!" Cool Strings Radio

Shoun Shoun ('shoon-shoon')
