YOUNGS, RICHARD - Metal River

Format: LP Label & Cat.Number: Fourth Dimension Records FDLP124 Release Year: 2021 Note: the always surprising and uncategorizable Glasgow based "folktronica" artist with a very experimental, electronic album... - "Richard Youngs bares his teeth in a set of biting point shredders and distorted atonal experiments sure to light up the pleasure centres of Wolf Eyes and Merzbow fans" [Boomkat] - * four songs of deep space beamed curdled electronics not far removed from being akin to the contorted death caterwauls of a cyborg species reaching out in uttermost anguish* - 300 copies pressed Price (incl. 19% VAT): €22.50 More Info Richard Youngs' e work can traverse everywhere from avant-folk or otherworldly pop to minimalist electronics or some of the most fervent 'outer sounds' one can dredge from the deepest crevices of their doubtlessly life battle-scarred imagination. On Metal River, Youngs offers four songs of deep space beamed curdled electronics not far removed from being akin to the contorted death caterwauls of a cyborg species reaching out in uttermost anguish. It's like prime Edgar Froese getting snagged on Incapacitants before tumbling headlong into a dingy cellar that then has its door slammed shut and locked before one notices the only company is accorded by body parts in dusty and mouldy demijohns. Features three songs on the first side, 'Days of Gravity Indoors', 'Metal River' and 'Rainy Days Static Caravan', plus the side long 'Dual Monody of Accumulated Detritus'. The perfect follow up to the 2dicks 7" lathe-cut also featuring Richard Youngs and released by FD in June. White vinyl, too. What more could you possibly ask for? "
