Album of the Week: Youth Valley ‘Lullabies For Adults’

Our featured record this week is ‘Lullabies For Adults‘, the debut album from Athens indie pop/shoegaze/dream pop/alt band Youth Valley.

Youth Valley’s style revolves around genres like new wave, post punk and 80’s indie rock like ‘The Cure’ or ‘The Smiths’ dressed in a more contemporary shoegaze guitar-based coat, inspired by bands like DIIV.

Produced by Alex Bolpasis and Youth Valley, the album involve a series of songs that explore the emotional state of youth within a modern society, but also the stories of youth that made today’s adults be who they are. Thoughts and reflections relating past to present will be unfold, spoken out loud and expressed, not in the form of confession, but in an attempt to look for answers hidden in traumas and fears.

Favourite tracks on the album: Jean Moreas, Hurricane, I Don’t Want To Go Out With You Veronica, Godheads, Promising Young Man…
