YUNG
(Fat Possum, DK)
There’s a concept in Scandinavian society called the Law of Jante, which says individuals should downplay their achievements, blend in and support the group. The music of Danish band Yung serves as an urgent, screaming retort to that idea, the sound of young iconoclasts fighting against apathy. Led by 21-year-old frontman and songwriter Mikkel Holm Silkjær, the group hails from Aarhus, Denmark’s second city, a huge port, university town and ideal place to find like minds amid the industrial grit. On the forthcoming EP “These Thoughts Are Mandatory Chores,” they show themselves to be ambassadors of their country’s increasingly vital underground music scene. Anthemic guitars, coarse feedback and driving rhythm, insistent to the point of impatience, show angst acting as a powerful fuel for self-expression, gasoline poured on a fire already fed by youthful energy.

FRANK LOVE (CAN)
Canadian Soul Punk band Frank Love has been kicking it around the Vancouver local music scene since 2012 and is made up of three females, (two vocalists, one guitarist) and an all male rhythm section. Starting as more of a hardcore project to help them deal with the stresses of life Frank Love has just recently come into their own, honing their song writing skills to a tighter and more danceable sound they’ve dubbed Soul Punk.
Sometimes people mistake the band name for a man’s name. Frank Love is not a person, but rather a pure and honest feeling of love. It’s frank, it’s candid.
The band spent 5 days in early October on Gabriola Island, BC, recording at the Noise Floor with engineer extraordinaire Jordan Koop (War Baby, Needles//Pins, The Courtneys). The album can be heard at:
The full album entitled “Strange Attitude” was released January 6, 2016.
