YUNGBLUD - YUNGBLUD

Super fun and heartfelt record, not quiiiiite as mindblowing as 2020's weird! was but still another brilliant entry in Dom's discography; it's cool to see him taking something of a more streamlined and concise sonic approach here - unlike the last record's super diverse genre bending style, this album goes for a consistent, sleek, post-punk/new wave style that really suits his signature flamboyant and ebullient energy and performances.

As has always been the case with every Yungblud release, you can tell he's genuinely having the time of his life on these tracks, even during the darker and more depressing moments, and is pouring his heart and soul out. And on an album that already has such fantastic songwriting and composition, that added sense of passion is just the perfect cherry on top.

Dom easily remains one of the most enthralling and important artists in the modern uk punk scene and is only futher cementing that here; maintaining a unique sound, look and feel that, while understandably off-putting to some, is endlessly entertaining and fulfilling if you do happen to vibe with him and his message.
