Formerly known as Blind Eagles, Paranoid Youth is a young 4 piece alternative rock set and has been around for a number of years. Paranoid Youth bases their sound on clever songwriting and various influences and boasts an impressive live show. They have just finished their debut album The Revamped Songbook (you can listen to 6 out of the 10 songs on our profile player). The album is a collection of works from singer/bassist Sam Proust and guitarist Venura De Zoysa's extensive range of songs over the years, and topped off with the enthusiastic drumming and occasional keyboard of Amrit Indraratna.. We have also added a new member into the band with Luke Hoschke on bass guitar. Please rate us on Triple J Unearthed by clicking the brown button underneath!

Sounds Like: The kind of music you could either rock out to or just chill out. A bunch of crazy 90's kids trying to be better than your average band.
OR
