REVIEWS
What elevates Yuck above the typical nostalgic, lo-fi noise revivalist is how the band defies predictability by shifting styles and directions between, and even within, songs.
Yuck distinguish themselves by knowing their way around around a catchy, emotionally evocative song.
Theirs is an easily digestible, less angst-ridden take on grunge, with a fizzing, infectious youthfulness to it.
The album is really something that’s greater than the sum of its parts, thanks to the band’s instincts and intuition.
Yuck’s debut will remind you of a time when the mainstream reinterpreted Kurt Cobain’s wardrobe as a way to market rebellion to teens, and it will mostly be enjoyed as a well-enacted 90s homage.
Ultimately, Yuck is the work of a band in its infancy; too engrossed in worshipping musical deities to lay down its own ideas.
