Here's the latest video from Youth Lagoon, "Mute," from the album 'Wondrous Bughouse' out now on Fat Possum Records. Directed by Tyler T. Williams Order on iTunes: itunes.apple.c...
Found out about Youth Lagoon as a high schooler who was just discovering himself in 2013. 8 years later and here I am out of college, working, listening to this and feeling the same feelings I did with this so long ago. Cheers to the next 8 years everyone.
Listened to this in high school and thought i had life figured out. Now Years come by and i listen to this song and i remember the good times that i didn’t know i was in, i don’t got shit figured but i have a goal. Hope everybody has a great life.
Still on the search for something like Wondrous Brighouse. There's just something about the auditory clutter of Trevor's music in Mute that nothing else can compare to: how so many different noises can come together to form something so beautiful. Listening to this leaves me empty without it, and unfortunately, I've gone through hundreds of albums and none have sounded anything like this. Mulberry Violence was a welcome fix but Trevor's new music will never compare to WB. RIP Youth Lagoon, hope to hear something close to you again.
Centipede Hz by AnCo felt similarly cluttered and busy. Also received mixed reception at the time like Wondrous Bughouse. Wondrous Bughouse is no doubt a better album but CHz has some excellent tracks like Applesauce
I first heard this song about 4 years ago. Since then, my taste in music has changed. I also have come to learn about the other songs: The Hunt, 17 and Cannons, all of which has captured my heart.
The multi-facetedness is incredible. This music gives a feeling of sheer freedom from the ambience of the background track, pace & vocals , it’s somehow neo-psychedelic because of the combination of sound effects, yet all of those little sounds with the guitar riff are so intricate, so very nostalgic and intimate to your core, they become connected to the childhood and from now on to you, forever.
This video looks like a reenactment of a peculiar acid trip that made a significant difference in someones life in the beautiful land of Boise, Idaho. The north end is beautiful.
His voice sounds almost identical to Jónsi, and you'd think I'd be able to tell, him being my idol and all. Heard this on Sense8 a few minutes ago, genuinely thought it was Jónsi
I had this song in my head all day but couldn't remember the name. Finally find it. I haven't been listening to this for years. Brain is such a strange thing.
That feeling you get when you find new music and iys fucking amazing and you feel like a 3yr old who just got some ice cream is one of the best feelings ever.
This song reminds me of last summer when every Tuesday more and more, I fell in love with a beautiful stranger I will never know, in the basement of an old library. The mind is strange, but the heart is stranger.
As I hear the horses drawing close, Over all the corpses we loved most. But I never see them, I never see them. I never see them, I never see them. There's a figure watching from the knoll. All the myths and stories we were told, But I never listen, I never listen. I never listen, I never listen
Go on 8tracks and just listen to the playlist. It's an excellent way of gaining exposure to not just indie music, but hearing some 'mainstream' music in a totally different light when put in a particular mix of songs in a playlist. It's how I came to know many of my loved bands ;D Good luck.
Is it me or does "Through Mind and Back" by Youth Lagoon play in the beginning of this music video? Also, I love when the song theme changes and the piano takes it away at 1:51 💙
Found you guys from the book Exit Here. Wild its so old but I have been still jamming to your songs till this day. Hope you are all good. See ya Trevor.
Living in a 3-D world Where the clock is in control He sits on his throne on top of my wrist and tells me what I know The devil tries to plague my mind But he can't quite get inside I'll place my jar in a burial grounds that only I can find Winding up the back road hill Looking for God's acre still And just when I gave up, a headstone was seen near the top of the military kill As I hear the horses drawing close Over all the corpses we loved most But I never see them I never see them I never see them I never see... There's a figure watching from the knoll All the myths and stories we were told But I never listen I never listen I never listen I never listen
