Arriving alongside the news of Red (a new EP, set to arrive on the 23rd of April via Brace Yourself Records), 'Flat Planet' is the crunchy new single by Laundromat (aka Toby Hayes). Sonically providing faint whiffs of Beck, St. Vincent and even TMR favourites Wooze, janky guitar lines emanate pedal-induced fuzz as comparatively subdued bass lines scale stripped back beats. Doubling up his vocals with pure harmonies, there's a lowkey sense of theatre to the track as Hayes explains: "I don’t ever remember setting out to write a tune like this, but here it is anyways. I kinda hear it like a St. Vincent song or something like that. Some tongue in cheek (but not) apocalyptic-pop. An eye-roll pointed right back at us dumb humans. You know how when you’re reading the news, and it’s facepalm after facepalm? This was a response to that feeling. The drop at the end is a Big Muff driving a Harmonic Percolator - a lot of fun through headphones." Check it out here now. -Holly Mullineaux
