Hailing from Brighton, indie rock quintet Youth Sector expertly balance astute political observations with campy indie romps. Inspired by the art school greats DEVO and Talking Heads, their music is a coiled spring of urgency and unpredictable energy that offers a sense of catharsis for the confusion of modern adult life.
Across their critically acclaimed EPs, the Brighton quintet have never revelled in bleakness, managing to twist everyday narratives into music that is quite the opposite being upbeat, full of energy and with irresistible choruses you can’t help but sing along with.
Evidently Youth Sector are no strangers to weaving prescient issues of culture and politics into the warm embrace of strong grooves and sing-along choruses, but debut album ‘Pop Couture’ raises the bar considerably, marking their strongest statement to date. From grift culture to political corruption to the devolution of living standards, Youth Sector prove they can transform the weightiest subject matter into the most irresistible of choruses.
“'Pop Couture', our debut album, is a body of work which for a long time seemed out of our reach; it's the culmination of several years of development and is the vehicle for which we have been saving the best material we've ever written. The album explores prescient issues in our culture and politics such as grift culture, corruption and the devolution of standards in public life, but wraps these ideas in the warm embrace of strong grooves and sing-along choruses.”
“We've been more ambitious than ever on these recordings in terms of the scale of the songs we're writing, with the help of Richard Wilkinson (Bombay Bicycle Club, Spector, Kaiser Chiefs), this album includes our most expansive recordings to date. Woven throughout the record is a self-awareness and introspection from five individuals who have worked through the financial and personal burdens that come with being a small artist the modern music industry; the record is bookended by 'God's Work' and 'Not Coming Down' that explore the journey through different lenses.”
“Although the road to 'Pop Couture' has been long and arduous, Youth Sector can confidently confirm for any apprehensive listeners that it is certifiably all killer and no filler.”
Debut album ‘Pop Couture’ arrives September 19th via Dance To The Radio.
Championed by the likes of Clash, DIY, Dork, The Line Of Best Fit with BBC Radio playlisting alongside multiple Radio 1 and 6 Music specialist plays, their live set is a force to be reckoned with having toured alongside Kaiser Chiefs, Darwin Deez, with SXSW 2023 plus buckets of UK and EU festivals under their belts.
