Our Take

Richard Youngs' latest offering, "Metal River," is a veritable sonic journey down a metallic waterway of avant-garde soundscapes. From the moment the first track kicks in, you are transported to a world where conventional musical boundaries no longer apply.

Youngs' signature blend of experimentalism and raw, unbridled creativity is on full display here, with each track offering a unique and captivating listening experience. From the hypnotic drone of "Silver Flow" to the distorted guitar riffs of "Iron Waves," there is no shortage of surprises in store for the intrepid listener.

The production on "Metal River" is top-notch, with every layer of sound carefully crafted and meticulously placed. The result is a rich tapestry of textures and tones that demands to be heard on high-quality speakers or headphones.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Rusty Current," a sprawling epic that builds and swells with an almost orchestral intensity. Youngs' vocals soar and dip, drawing the listener deeper into the swirling maelstrom of sound.

In conclusion, "Metal River" is a bold and fearless exploration of the outer reaches of musical possibility. Richard Youngs has once again proven himself to be a true pioneer of the avant-garde, pushing the boundaries of what is considered possible in the realm of music. Dive in and let the metallic currents of "Metal River" wash over you – you won't be disappointed.
