The Brighton outfit are at their best on the new release

Loaded with frenetic energy and an infectious, unique charm, latest Youth Sector release ‘Self Exile’ is a perfect summation of everything that makes the unmistakable Brighton act feel vital and exciting.

The track bursts with a fizzy, uncontrollable kind of energy and an unpredictable volatility, bouncing off the walls of indie rock and art-pop to create something that feels as memorable and engaging as it is raucous. The track manages to both feel like complete chaos while maintaining a hooky kind of groove, as lyrics about self-destruction and stubbornness hide among the carnage. ‘Self Exile’ packs a deceptive depth that unfurls itself the more that you listen to it. Youth Sector are an outfit that really have a grip on their distinctive and memorable sound and here, have unleashed it to devastating effect.
