“Leather” is numbingly beautiful. From Ronald Paris, the somewhat confusing new name representing Porches’ current project, the song was released off of the split album Ronald Paris / Mdou Moctar. Its rhythms are moving and lucid, the lyrics abstract and nonsensical (“her eyes will shoot lasers and pentagrams”). Aaron Maine’s voice coordinates perfectly with the pulses of base guitar; the eerie and slow melancholy will remind the avid indie listener of Grizzly Bear’s Horn of Plenty. The band is a difficult one to wrap your brain around; just see their website, which is adorned with images of solemn black-eyed Labradors, faces adorned with doilies. They’ve developed an otherworldly presence with spacey, echoing synths and unsettling pauses. The allure of “Leather” is hardly conventional: Porches attracts with a strong penchant for the surreal.
