Post-Punk / Rock

The Underground Youth • Lorelle Meets The Obsolete

by Geneviève Gendreau

Berliners by adoption The Underground Youth showcase their latest album, Montage Images of Lust & Fear, released in March 2019, during their very first visit to Montreal. Buttressed by the charismatic presence of Craig Dyer, the project’s founder, The Underground Youth unfold an atmospheric post-punk laced with the troubled moods of disillusioned crooner Dyer. The result: ballads bitter rather than sweet, evoking Nick Cave. They will be accompanied by the Mexican band Lorelle Meets the Obsolete, just as worthy of mention for their hushed, irresistibly lunar psychedelia. They’ll also release a new EP the following day, RE – FACTO, on Sonic Cathedral, featuring two original tracks and two remixes. It is, for them too, a first passage through town.
