Songfacts®:

• "U Should Not Be Doing That" is lead singer Amy Taylor's defiant rejection of societal judgment and a celebration of self-expression, particularly in the face of criticism and double standards. According to Taylor, the song is "pretty self-explanatory."
  
  "'U Should Not Be Doing That' makes me laugh," she said, "but it's also in a way poking fun at the shock that people still feel at a little bit of skimpy clothing, and the bitchy high school way that the music community still is."
• Starting with a strong bass line, the rest of the instruments kick into a slower tempo than the band's usual breakneck punk style.
• The band, comprising Amy Taylor, Dec Martens, Gus Romer, and Bryce Wilson, wrote the song themselves. It was produced by Nick Launay (Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Yeah Yeah Yeahs).
• Amyl and The Sniffers released this vicious display of self-love and rejecting social norms along with a B-side titled "Facts" on May 21, 2024. It was their first new material since their 2021 album Comfort To Me.
• The John Angus Stewart-directed video shows Amy Taylor and actor Steven Ogg (The Walking Dead, Better Call Saul) dancing around Los Angeles.
  
  Stewart directed Amyl and The Sniffers' music video for "Hertz," which was nominated for Best Video at ARIA Music Awards. He is also a regular visual collaborator for the Australian bands The Murlocs and King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard.
