DOWNLOAD: Nacional - On TV + Yorkshire
It takes some balls to go over 1 minute in a tune before the rest of the band kicks in, but on the Nacional's "On TV" it works to excellent effect; wondering, waiting, anticipation growing as singer Jamie Hamilton talks about "bleeding on TV." When it does kick in it's all spiky cheeky angular guitar riffs that you can picture Ian Curtis jerking to and cheerfully glum delivery that sounds like it could have been produced decades ago and yet somehow sounds decidedly 'now.' "Yorkshire," cements the fact that this Glasgow-based quintet know that the best way around a sulky pop song is through undeniably dance-inducing riffs and if the UK reviews are to be believed, live this song charms the pants off every filly and fella in the room.
