The Paranoyds Reveal “Single Origin Experience” & Announce North American Tour Dates

Today, Los Angeles-based DIY rock band The Paranoyds announce their fall North American tour with support from Milly, Upchuck, Tchotchke, and Bad Waitress alongside a brand new single, Single Origin Experience, that is out now. The band’s highly anticipated sophomore full length, Talk Talk Talk, is due out on the 9th September and is now available for pre-order via Third Man Records. Before the official fall tour kicks off, The Paranoyds will support Jack White for three dates this September including Asheville, NC, New Orleans and Shreveport, LA. The Fall tour officially begins on October 13th in Santa Ana, CA and moves through the South, Midwest, plus a date in Toronto, ON before concluding in their home city of Los Angeles on November 12th.

On their latest single The Paranoyds reckon with both America’s shameful history and current shady antics by the government and top corporations. The track opens with fuzzy, layered vocals that sing, “Nihilism bobbleheads, misogynists but working on it / American means shaking hands and stealing land / Modern horror is unmotivated / Moving through the days unabated”. Single Origin Experience pokes fun at society’s plunge into a hyper-surveilled, hyper-marketed and profit-driven circus, it also exemplifies the band’s effortless blend of eccentric societal commentary with sincerity over grainy guitar and a magnetic hook that remains in one’s head long after the song is over.

“Sometimes an event happens or a news report comes out or whatever and you’re just so bummed about what it means to be American. It can be so exhaustingly cringey. Companies spying on us and “green-washing” their products in hopes of selling as a “pure” life, a branded experience. what the fuck right? Does single origin coffee really taste any better???” (guitarist and vocalist Lexi Funston)
