What we say

Rating: happy This record left our BRIAN D feeling happy.

Youthmovies captured me at ATP last year with a set of free & breezy euphoric avant-pop & progressive punk-funk. I don't know who they reminded me of except maybe an embryonic New Order mixed with Out Hud or something like Radiohead being sick on A Certain Ratio? They sounded like they should be on Dischord recently anyhooo. The single they've got out on Drowned in Sound however loses a little in studio translation & sounds a little like spiralling, slightly confused Emo chart funk with spots of Bloc Party & Les Savy Fav. They moved me live but this single isn't quite as breathtaking as i'd like but i do dig the free trumpets backing up the windy guitar scrawl & shouty impassioned bit at the end. Trumpets rule. 'The Naughtiest Girl is a Monitor' is 7" only!

What the label says:

To coincide with their sold out UK tour with Foals, Youthmovies are to release their eagerly awaited debut album, preceded by this single.Youthmovies front man Andrew Mears was a founding member of Foals.

About the humble 7":

The humble 7" is the smallest of the vinyl formats (not including the ridiculous 5") and it's the perfect medium for transporting a couple of new songs by up and coming bands straight into your ears. They're fun and they take up less space in your house than something bigger would. They come in a plethora of exciting colours and fantastical packages, and you can fit about 14 minutes onto one 7". You may have to get up every few minutes to put a new record on but think of the exercise. Don't forget every record you buy plays at least 2 speeds (depending on your stereo) and you need to play all records on all speeds to get the maximum joy from your purchase.
