What their label says...
Youthmovies are a bunch of rowdy Oxford lads making wildly-engaging progressive prog-pop. Adam Gnade is an experimental-folk musician from the US, who has been often lumped into the New Weird America/freak-folk camp. Honey Slides? five collaborative tracks are the product of a debauched two-week UK tour. The EP was written on the road, improved during insane collaborative sets, and recorded on a chilly, grey day at Oxford’s Warehouse Studios while a bottle of murky port was passed around the room. Adam did the lyrics and vocals. Youthmovies did the rest. Honey Slides is a departure from Adam’s noise-informed death-folk and Youthmovies’ big epicness. It is, above all else, a new animal born to two mothers, an engaging, weird, dancy, absorbing, electronic pop tapestry. Youthmovies’ full-length debut will be released in early 2008. Adam’s first book, “Hymn California” which continues the stories of the
characters from his songs, will be out in winter 2007
