Tokyo-based drum and bass duo Moja return with their most visceral release yet – announcing their upcoming album I’m Hungry !! alongside the first single, “Oh My God!!”.

Moja embrace natural sonic energy over lyrical storytelling with their newest I’m Hungry !!. Japanese duo strips rock down to its purest form – distortion, rhythm, and chemistry – creating a wall of sound that is both abrasive and hypnotic. “Our music has no romantic lyrics. Nor does it have gentle words that can soothe someone. It’s about feeling the beat, the swell of the riffs, the collision of sounds, and the moments when the emotions of Moja and the audience intersect and spark a chemical reaction”, explains the band.
This is raw sonic assault, built on the primal dialogue of bass and drums. No gimmicks, no filler – just energy that erupts with unrelenting intensity. According to Masumi (drums): “A world that makes your blood boil and your body move – that is everything in Moja’s music”. 

I’m Hungry !! captures the essence of the band’s live performance – uncompromising, untamed, and unfiltered. “What captivates us most in our performances is the kind of raw, blood-stirring energy that makes your whole body come alive – and we believe that’s one of our defining traits. Our songwriting and album production are simply the pure expression of that fire”, says Haru (bass and vocals).

The album serves as a sonic manifesto: a fearless exploration of unrefined emotion – explosive and intimate at once. “The sound we want to create is something that, in the end, only we can truly understand”, shares the band. “Also, since we sometimes start writing songs during the recording process, working just the two of us means there are no time constraints.” – the spirit of DIY culture united with the rich Japanese noise-rock culture rose on the upcoming LP. Recorded by Haru himself, it helped the band to remain in control on both dynamic changes as well as the quality of their work.

The first single “Oh My God!!” unleashes that chaos – a sharp, urgent track that sets the tone for the album. With its distorted throbbing bassline and relentless drumming, it’s both an introduction and a warning: Moja are here to shake the ground beneath your feet. Pre-order ‘I’m Hungry’ coming out September 26th here or Bandcamp.
