Post Description
It is easy to see why Scarlet Youth lists The Cure, Sigur Rós, and The Smashing Pumpkins as influences on their MySpace page, but the sound they have concocted truly takes the best of these artists and turns it into something I have never heard before. I could listen to this album on repeat and never get tired of it. The Everchanging View is a very personal soundtrack to relationships and love, starting with “You and Me” and ending with “Someday I’ll Be Fine Again.” My only complaint is that the album is only nine songs long, and when it’s over I’m left wishing there was more.
All in all, Scarlet Youth is an artist to listen for, as their talent is plentiful. Within the first ten seconds of “You and Me,” I had fallen in love with the vibrant, happy, and at the same time melancholic sound of the arrangement. Each song strikes a chord in my heart, as most people have felt the emotions conveyed throughout The Everchanging View. This album can leave one feeling relaxed, calm, introspective, and even a bit nostalgic. Being their 2nd full length album release, I am eager to see what Scarlet Youth brings us in the future.
