Jam Through Friday With Surfy Psych From Young Rival

Sometimes bands blend genre in all the right ways, and today’s exemplifier of that nuanced skill is Young Rival, out of Hamilton, Canada. They’ve got this fresh new single called “Scruples,” which is below and is a brief jam of distorted and fuzz coated surf-esque guitars. This song is simply groovy; those guitars are twangy and tart and the perfect balance of tight knit and loose, while the vocals are a bit of a wild card, distortedly playing through different levels of croon and conversation. Though only two and a half minutes long, I’ve found myself playing this one over and over again. Get hooked and get ready for the newest full-length release from these gentlemen called Interior Light. You can preorder this sick looking pink and blue record, which is out on October 16th via Paper Bag Records, here.
