Natural Anthem - Paranoid (Mystery Egg Records)

| Natural Anthem - Paranoid |
Release Date: 11th September 2015
Natural Anthem are a Texas duo
made up of Jake Murphy and Daniel Slatton and, on the evidence of latest single
'Paranoid', they make geek-indie of the highest melodic order. The lazily
strummed guitar is pure Teenage Fanclub or Magic Numbers while the bass line
pops along with more pep than it has any right to. The beat is straight from
the 60s protest songs via Redd Kross and the vocals suggest someone has been on
a 5 days acid trip that has left them confiding in a standard lamp while picking
individual strands of hair out of their head until they are completely bald on
one side. This is soothing and unsettling in equal measure which is an
impressively perfect balance for any record to strike. Oh, and the video will
leave you feeling more than a little spaced out too so don't watch it before
operating any heavy machinery, capiche?
