Who doesn’t love a bit of vague honesty?
Liars, that’s who.
Because honesty. And truth. And the word ‘truth’ is in the song title.
Alright, forget it. But don’t forget to listen to ‘Something Like The Truth’, the latest effort from alt-folk Belfast natives No Oil Paintings.
By the name alone, you know that the quartet have a knack for self-deprecation, but they adopt a notably outward approach with their tunes.
According to the band themselves, ‘Something Like The Truth’ represents an “equal parts socio-political and ear-worming gem focusing on the increasing lack of humanity in modern society.”
Bright, cheery, and 2019 in a nutshell by the sounds of things.
Give it a blast below.
