EASTERN
YOUTH WHAT CAN YOU SEE FROM YOUR PLACE FIVE ONE |
LINKS: |
| Eastern Youth is a Japanese trio that has been regarded as the Fugazi of the Far East. Judging by the band's ethereal 10-track offer, despite every lyric being sung in Japanese, the raw power and visceral connection is as strong as any of Eastern Youth's English-singing counterparts. | ||
| Truly encapsulating the idea that music is the universal language, Eastern Youth's music and pure emotional output are seemingly enough to be swept away by, as the music in songs such as the captivating "Breaking a Vow on a Dare, August" and the driving "Autumn Winds and the Guys" almost make you forget that this is sung in a foreign language. Providing a discernible punk structure and an admiration for bands such as Jawbreaker in its music, Eastern Youth use these tools as a springboard to further its musical scope and broaden the horizons of both the band and the listener. If you like the current wave of emo/punk/indie that has infiltrated the rock scene, chances are Eastern Youth will be a favorite of yours as well. | ||
