WHOEVER is settling into the Oval Office as you read this, Tony Wright AKA VerseChorusVerse has got a brand new tune out today that's right for the increasingly unsettled era we're living through.

"So here we stand at the gates of hell" will be as apt an opening line as you're likely to hear in the event that The Donald has successfully conned the Americans into electing him, but The New Paranoia's slinky piano-based number has multiple modern mistrust-based maladies in its brooding, vibe-laden sights.

Indeed, as Wright observes "it's just a matter of time 'til we crawl back to the slime."

However, hopefully our demise won't be so imminent that we don't get to hear the next VCV album, which is coming out next year, along with the north coast music man's first book and a documentary on 'the spirit of Joe Strummer' shot in Granada.

For now, check out the video for The New Paranoia at FB.com/VerseChorusVerseVCV and make a note in your diary that VCV will be playing out 'in the round' with Duke Special and The Darkling Air at Kiwi's in Portrush on November 19.
