Robot Hand - "Eleanor"
You might know Annabelle Lord Patey as the daughter of Mary Lou Lord and Kevin Patey (Jittery Jack and Raging Teens), and also as a pretty great folk/singer-songwriter on her own. She has formed a new band with Shane McCarthy called Robot Hands, and they've just released their first single. Anyone expecting this to sound like her solo work will be surprised. "Eleanor" is more of a droney, grungey song. It's either a noisier version of grunge or a dirtier version of shoegaze. Even with the fuzz driving the song, it's still shockingly melodic. Lord Patey's vocals provide most of the melody, giving a really nice diversion from the noisier music. You can listen to "Eleanor" below. The song is available now via Bandcamp .
