It turns out, however, that the song could have just as easily ended up coming from a very different source.\n          <\/p>\n<p>\n            Appearing on Apple Music on Monday, the band&#8217;s frontman Ian Shelton told host Zane Lowe that he had written the instrumental to \u201cB A D I D E A\u201d after hearing that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefader.com\/artist\/doja-cat\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Doja Cat<\/a> was interested in making a hardcore album.\n          <\/p>\n<p>\n            \u201cB A D I D E A\u201d was a song that was at the very last minute hatched, and it was actually hatched \u2019cause I wrote it for a hardcore record that Doja Cat wanted to do,&#8221; Shelton said. &#8220;And then I was like, \u201cNah, I\u2019m taking that.\u201d For the instrumental, not the vocal. So I wrote the vocal when I knew it was for me.&#8221;\n          <\/p>\n<p>\n            The interview Shelton mentions was a <a target=\"_new\" href=\"https:\/\/variety.com\/2023\/music\/features\/doja-cat-new-era-rapping-fashion-1235506581\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Variety<\/a> piece published in 2023. It makes reference to Doja Cat playing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefader.com\/artist\/idles\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IDLES<\/a> music at the accompanying cover shoot and speaking about her love of punk and hardcore music. &#8220;I want to explore punk,&#8221; she said in the interview. &#8220;But not pop-punk. I feel like we have enough pop-punk artists right now. And if there needs to be more, then let there be more, but I don\u2019t think I\u2019m the one to do it. I want to explore more of a raw, unfiltered, hardcore punk sort of thing. It\u2019s just something that I\u2019m doing for my own personal fun \u2014 getting some drummers and guitarists together. And I don\u2019t even know if that\u2019s gonna make it out there.&#8221;\n          <\/p>\n<p>\n            It&#8217;s not clear if Shelton is suggesting that he was actively writing for Doja Cat, or just using her interview quotes as a creative prompt. Either way, it doesn&#8217;t seem like an actual Doja Cat punk record is happening any time soon so it&#8217;s probably for the best he kept the song to himself. Militarie Gun&#8217;s God Save The Gun will be released on October 17.\n          <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Last week Militarie Gun announced details of their new album God Save The Gun and dropped the lead&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":357211,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3940],"tags":[4080,77,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-357210","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-celebrities","9":"tag-entertainment","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115056334933266142","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/357210","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=357210"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/357210\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/357211"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=357210"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=357210"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=357210"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
