On I Eat Rubbish, The Shining Tongues take you down a journey that’s dark, macabre, brooding, yet altogether melodically magnificent. The band has created an eclectic sound that combines elements of cosmic disco and Morricone-esque overtones. Lead guitarist Jax takes us on a spaced-out soundscape with their unique guitar riffs.
The song’s powerful message speaks to the impact of mass-consumerism on our lives, with lyrics that encourage us to overcome our psychic exhaustion and dance our way out of a sense of dread. The song just exudes a powerful catharsis as that titular line is delivered with such disdain and power.
“I Eat Rubbish” is a standout track from the band’s upcoming album, which promises to be an experimental journey of artful rock magnificence. With an imagination that’s palpable and a sonic space that’s mesmerising, this is one outfit rock fans would do well to check out.
