Sarah McIntosh could easily be lumped in with female-fronted electro-pop bands such as La Roux and Ladyhawke, but the sophisticated gothic sheen on pop melodies she offers with her band the Good Natured sets her apart. Slinking between Scandinavian-like bubblegum choruses to sensually dark undertones that echo Ladytron, McIntosh (along with her brother Hamish and bandmate George Hinton) writes pop that is flirty but she is far from a novice. At only 20 years old, she already has released a third EP titled “Skeleton,” which also serves as the U.S. debut for the Good Natured and a nice taste for the forthcoming full-length. The trio’s Patrik Berger-produced record is slated for a release sometime next year, and if you’re a fan of his work on Robyn’s last two albums, it’s a collection of songs worth looking forward to in terms of pop music with a strong backbone.
