Continuing their hot streak into the summer of 2024, Pet Needs are back with their scorching new video, The Age That You Were, that is taken from their latest full length, Intermittent Fast Living. The single comes ahead of a string of sizeable festival shows this Summer, the band have also just confirmed a European and UK tour supporting Laura Jane Grace later this year. On The Age That You Were, the DIY Essex quartet find themselves inspired, quite literally, by a bit of household DIY from their childhood that seemed to make quite a dent on frontman Johnny Marriott.

I am now the age I remember my dad being when he knocked through a stud wall and fitted sliding doors in my childhood home. I can’t even hang a picture frame. Still. Although I did change my car brake lights the other day! It was especially fun to sing the line about “creatives who either (grow) up into legends or fucking disgraces” down John Lydon’s custom microphone whilst in the studio. The very one he recorded the whole last PIL album on, before gifting to the studio. I’m not saying that line is about him, but I’m not saying it’s not either.” (Johnny Marriott)
