| NARCS - Pig |
Release Date: 26th February 2016
My favourite Leeds lads are back
with a new single and a tour which is great news but you'd better strap
yourself in as they aren't in the mood for fluffy pop ballads, oh no sir.
Narcs' new single, the directly title 'Pig', is an attack to the senses from
the moment you see the artwork to the triumphant end of the track itself and
that's not even mentioning the video! Strained guitar notes drift out over
tribal, insistent drums as feedback bleeds in from the corners before the
distinctive voice of frontman Wilko kicks in with inbuilt distortion. The
tension builds through the verses to a chorus that offers some respite but you
just can't take your eyes off the video. Two and a half minutes in the song
explodes in a hundred different directions with only the grumbling bass line
keeping things remotely tethered in some sense of order. Not so much a return
to form, then, but more a continuation of excellent work that has had me
enthralled since I first heard these guys. A genuinely talented bunch with a
bright future - no matter how bleak they see our future as.
