YOUNG, THE:
Self-titled: 7” EP
I don’t care how old the
members of the Young happen to be. They could be in the thirties or forties for
all I care. What is undeniable, no matter their ages, is that they have
produced a phenomenal debut EP that transcends musical subgenres, delivering
raw, honest emotions set to crackling hardcore, emo (the old kind, not the dog
shit that clogs up popular radio today), and garage punk. “Get Out of My Face”
is right up in the listener’s (face), a vitriolic lyrical and musical spasm
that sits somewhere between the Carbonas and Marked Men on the punk rock
musical spectrum. “Hurt Each Other” recalls mid-‘80s Dischord bands like
Embrace and Rites Of Spring with its desperate, heart-wrenching vocal delivery.
Early Jawbreaker and Promise Ring are especially evident on “Erase You,” and “Nobody
Cares” leaves rubber marks on the blacktop as it screeches at you like a
souped-up muscle car. Austin, TX is lucky to have these
bucks-of-early-chronological-age sleeping in its gutters.
