Natural Anthem Take Us on a Psychedelic Journey with ‘paranoid’ [stream]

Please say hello to Natural Anthem’s newest hazy and soulful track, “Paranoid”. Ironically, “Paranoid” feels as though it’s been lifted straight out of the 1960s psychedelic rock era, careening through four minutes of soft and slow vocals that cyclically shift into bold and assertive choruses. A dreamy guitar riff and heavy, unbroken bass line just further advance this track’s hypnotic vibe, molding a blurred four minutes of misty blues.

“Paranoid’s” music video is exactly what you’d expect from this track — it’s vibrant, pulsating, and intoxicatingly hallucinogenic. Band members Jake Murphy and Daniel Slatton have successfully served a slice of psychedelic listening and watching, temporarily transporting listeners to a different musical age. The Fort Worth, Texas duo has released their EP, Thread, which can be streamed on their Bandcamp.
