New Zealand indie rock royalty The Bats have been busy recording new music lately, resulting in their eleventh album, "Corner Coming Up." The Bats are Robert Scott, Kaye Woodward, Paul Kean, and Malcolm Grant, the beloved indie rock band from Aotearoa. Since forming in Christchurch in 1982, The Bats have cultivated a loyal global following and remain one of New Zealand's most popular and enduring exports. Their music is a perfect blend of bittersweet beauty and deceptive simplicity, and the band possesses a phenomenal ability to craft melodies that linger long after the record has ended. The new album strikes a very distinctive and familiar chord that resonates with fans worldwide who adore their sound. Throughout their more than 40-year existence, and now with their eleventh album, The Bats have remained true to their roots, creating timeless music that delights old and new fans alike. "Corner Coming Up" was recorded at Chicks Studio in Port Chalmers by Flying Nun legend Tex Houston.
