Regular readers of the blog will know how much I’m into the music of Los Angeles, USA-based shoegaze band The Loud Bangs. In the past year I’ve shared three of their EPs. Their latest single comes from their latest EP Stray Honey and it’s called This Is A Japanese Robot.

The intention of the track is to channel Manchester in the ’90s, and is a celebration of the Haçienda scene. That means it’s a bit of a departure from previous EPs but it’s still unmistakably The Loud Bangs, with hypnotic electronic rock instrumentals and barely there vocals.

It’s another great offering from a band that’s been described as “the Pink Floyd of shoegaze”. You can give This Is A Japanese Robot a listen below.
