The ParaffinsGenre: Melodramatic Popular Song / Zouk / Acousmatic / Tape music
From: Knockentiber, Scotland, United Kingdom
The Paraffins serve up a Scottish breakfast of strange lo-fi electro space-pop that sounds like The Beta Band recorded in the shed at the end of a hermits garden.
They recently contributed a track to the Filthy Little Angels Valentines Day album 'Biking Girl' (see below) a weird cover of an already strange and little known b-side from ultra obscure late 70s band The Four Plugs (check out the original here). You can also check out the brilliant video for 'Cardboard Cutout' created by the multi talented Lachlann Rattray of GVSY.
It doesn't get more alternative than The Paraffins. Kurt Cobain and John Peel would've loved them.
