Based in Oxford, UK, Shaven Primates have been developing their sound since 2017, combining elements of dark-wave, art rock, and proto/post-punk. The four-piece draws from a wide range of influences, including The Velvet Underground, Kate Bush, Tool, The Prodigy, The Clash, Bowie, Porcupine Tree, and Pink Floyd.
With their new EP, the band takes their sound in a heavier direction. The music becomes grittier, with a stronger focus on hard rock and punk, while still incorporating elements of modern art rock.
The main theme of the EP is anxiety and control, giving the band a new subject to explore through their music.
