Human Hair
‘Hungers’
The state51 Conspiracy
London rock ‘n’ rollers Human Hair are the musical result of a friendship between ex-furniture salesman turned vocalist, Jack Lenton and ex-Lovvers guitarist Henry Withers. Naturally, these two musical minds clash from very different ends of the spectrum. With a dark, poetic, Nick Cave reference lingering in Lenton’s vocal corner, and a simplistic Pavement-esque ideal resonating with Withers.
With their separate influences in mind, Human Hair’s sound is rather curious and unique. ‘Hungers’ receives a rigourous floor tom thrashing alongside scuzzy chord abuse. A minimalistic musical concoction is brewed. There’s no need nor want of unessesary decorations, that would only detract from the commanding vocal tones protruding from Lenton’s deep howl.
Hit play below and expose your ears to the weird rock ‘n’ roll of Human Hair, and your eyes to the hilarious visual they’ve knocked up to accompany this track.
Having just dropped their debut album My Life as a Beast and Lowly Form, the London quartet are set to play the Bad Vibrations / Marshall Teller all-dayer at The Shacklewell Arms on Saturday, be sure to head down and check out their live show at 4.45pm.
