The fuzz-pop drenched and pastel coloured explosions that resonates from Sheffield’s Nai Harvest’s new single, ‘Sick On My Heart’, is a tell-tail sign that the band are making headway to becoming a ‘big thing’ for this year. The steady rise of the duos’ slickly recorded slacker pop has been ongoing since the release of the shoegaze/punk LP, Whatever, which put the band firmly on everybody’s radar.

Coming out April 28th via Topshelf Records, the bands sophomore album, Hairball, seems set to catapult the duo into waters much bigger and deeper than what they were first swimming in. If anything is to be gained from the unequivocally positive response to the news of the new release it’s this; Nai Harvest are a band that deserve to have your undivided attention throughout the rest of this year, as what they have planned may be bigger than what you first expect.

Nai Harvest – Hairball
When’s it out? April 27th following a UK tour Sheffield’s Ben Thompson and Lew Currie make scrappy punk-pop with an emo tinge. Debut album ‘Hairball’, recorded with Sky Ferreira producer Bob Cooper, is a polished statement of intent. Barging into pop-punk’s bustling house party, Nai Harvest make the kind of loveably melodic racket that catches your ear across the room without clearing it first. The Sheffield duo, whose album ‘Hairball’ arrives next month on Topshelf Records, inject a Metz-like sneer into the hardcore jangle of underground sweethearts Hüsker Dü, rolling into singalongs that make you feel like a gleaming god: benevolent and mighty.

Following in a long line of bands from the steel city of Sheffield, Singer/guitarist Ben Thompson and drummer Lew Currie,  calling themselves Nai Harvest. If you heard last years “Buttercups” single, or the “Hold Open Your Head” EP, you’ll know that they’re equally at home making indie rock, garage punk and feedback laden-grunge, the pair are back with a new single, “Sick on My Heart” , ahead of a new album due out 28th April ‘Hairball’, on Topshelf Records.

“Sick on my Heart” blasts into life, full of attitude and this sprawling mass of guitar noise and garage punk aesthetic, drums driving things on. Although its roots are in pop music, what with the sort of sing along chorus that wouldnt be out of place on the voice, its messy, soaked in echo and kicked through a wall of feedback and through Sub Pops back catalogue, just in case it wasn’t brilliant enough already.
