Description
The music of Young Jesus has always been about change. Bandleader and sole original member John Rossiter is a restless spirit, always moving, always seeking new sounds, new thoughts, new methods of working. Young Jesus new album Shepherd Head is a dramatic departure for the band, delving deeper into the themes that have always fascinated Rossiterlove, loss, and Godapproached in a completely new direction. Its a record of growth and exploration, pushing forward into the future with hope while still holding the pain and regrets of the past, seeking a balance for the present. After the release of 2020's Welcome to Conceptual Beach, the band had drifted apart after too much time on the road, and Rossiter became restless. After the tragic death of a close friend, Rossiter felt a need for change. For this new album, he opened up the songwriting process, relying on collaboration and improvisation. Instead of the bands usual method of months-long rehearsal before cranking out an album live in the studio in less than a week, Rossiter decided to take his time, recording the entire record over a series of years using only his MacBook, GarageBand, and an SM57 microphone. He used found sounds, recording random people on the street, experimenting with white noise, piecing together scraps of songs from voice memos. The result is a record completely unlike anything in Young Jesus discography. Rossiters voice is deep and lovely, conjuring a sense of melancholy and grandeur, but never with bitterness or despair. The disparate elementsthe found sounds, the friend cameos, Rossiters disciplined songwritingcome together in thrilling and sometimes shocking ways. Theres a joy to the music, the wild hope and possibility that arises after tragedy, a feeling of revelation. TRACK LIST 1. Rose Water 2. Ocean 3. Johno 4. Shepherd Head 5. Gold Line Awe 6. Satsuma 7.
