»Paranoid Cocoon« ist ein Album voller ruhiger, hölzerner Psychedelik, die Cotton Jones' lässiges Streben nach Komfort und Freiheit widerspiegelt. Unter den Bergen von Cumberland, Maryland, wo sich Bäche in der einsamen Dunkelheit des Waldes schlängeln und ein roter Mond über dem Kopf hängt, wurden diese Lieder aus dem Verlassen geboren, aus guten und schlechten Träumen, gesungen in einer Umgebung, die die Band ihr ganzes Leben lang kennt. Paranoid Cocoon ist einfache, unaufdringliche Perfektion: Sie klingen zeitlos, weil sie schon ewig zusammen singen.
Michael Nau and Whitney McGraw have hearts - huge, questioninghearts - full of music that mixes elements of soul, rock and gospel into a gauzy cocoon of small-town sound. [It began as the Basket Ride, a few years ago, when the idea began to come to a head. Then, without intent, Cotton Jones became the core.]A new flexibility comes from a new name. These days Nau is making music very differently than he did in Page France. The original paranoia that haunted him has dropped off. "This feels like a new leaf to me. I've learned to let the music happen, rather than trying to invent something," says Nau, "I'm still sifting through some imaginary thesis, but it makes more sense now." The result of his personal revelation is Paranoid Cocoon: the debut full-length for Suicide Squeeze. It's an album full of quiet, wooden psychedelia that reflects the duos' casual pursuit of comfort and freedom under the mountains of Cumberland, Maryland, where creeks zigzag in the lonesome dark of the forest, and a red moon hangs overhead. These are songs of leaving, of dreams both good and bad, sung from surroundings they've known their whole lives. In "By Morning Light," Nau and McGraw's voices draw each other out of a contemplative melancholy and into a state of amazed gratification; themusic here shimmers, always - the snare-drum cracks against the tug of the guitar - reaching the sublime crush of Yo La Tengo's "And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside Out." It's simple, understated perfection: they sound timeless from singing together forever.
