Strong Asian Mothers return with existential pop ode "Just Another"
London pop merchants Strong Asian Mothers are back with "Just Another", the first single from upcoming EP Animal.
The genre-smashing troupe merge hip-hop and synthpop on their latest offering. It brandishes beefy electro hooks and sinewy bass, with erratic vocal samples jabbed into the mix at frantic angles - it's another adrenaline-fuelled floorfiller.
"'Just Another' circles around the awareness of being one voice amongst many billions of other voices," explain the band. "Being another human being in a long line of past, present and future human beings can be a comforting and connecting thought - but it can also be an overwhelming and claustrophobic one. Living in a big city hammers this feeling home. The internet, being the vast web of frequently tangled and clashing voices that it is, reminds us of it more maybe than ever before."
