Our Take

It’s always a pleasure when a band comes along that defies easy categorization, and Great Ytene certainly fits the bill with their latest release, "Locus." This London-based quartet has a knack for blending elements of post-punk, shoegaze, and indie pop into a sound that is uniquely their own.

From the moment the opening track kicks in, it's clear that Great Ytene are not content to stick to any one formula. The swirling guitars and insistent rhythms create a sense of urgency that drives the album forward, while the dreamy vocals add a layer of ethereal beauty. It's a winning combination that keeps the listener on their toes throughout the record.

But what really sets Great Ytene apart is their attention to detail. Each song is meticulously crafted, with every note and lyric carefully thought out. This level of craftsmanship is apparent in tracks like "Wanness" and "Monomania", where the band effortlessly weaves together complex melodies and intricate arrangements.

Overall, "Locus" is a bold statement from a band unafraid to take risks and push the boundaries of their sound. Great Ytene have delivered an album that is as adventurous as it is rewarding, and one that demands repeated listens to fully appreciate its many nuances. Trust us when we say, this is one album you don't want to miss.
