Read More We also get a lot of pitches (come check out this band, etc) and since I mainly like UK bands, I was told I could not miss The Good Natured. From what I've read about her, she's a young lass of twenty years and people have compared her to Bat for Lashes, La Roux, and Florence and the Machine (all of these bands I adore).

I'm really loving what I've heard from The Good Natured. If you're into British electropop bands, you're going to absolutely fall in love with The Good Natured. From what I can tell, this is a brand new band with only a few EPs and singles under their belt. They're young, stylish, good looking, and their music rocks.
The band consists of two siblings, Sarah and Hamish McIntosh, with their uni-buddy drummer George Hinton. Their debut EP, Warriors got them a lot of attention a few years ago, but it wasn't until their latest single, Skeleton (their major-label debut single via Parlophone Records) did I finally got a chance to listen to them.
The Good Natured's Skeleton single is really catchy: starting off with a playful lyrical of body parts (hearts and lungs) and machinery in "Your Body Is A Machine". It's followed by their best song on the single, "Skeleton" with this weird sexual lyrics:
The rest of the single plays out like a new, yet dark, new romantic, full of synth and beats, but with lots of great lyrics. I didn't hear any autotune, what a relief.
Skeleton was released October 25th, only available digitally on amazon and iTunes via their US distributor, Astralwerks. I highly recommend it, if you're on the look out for the next La Roux.

Rip it all off; so hot, don't stop!
You make strip, you make me sweat.
What you see is what you get.
