Yuck + Childhood + Thumpers + Speedy Ortiz

After young Londoners Yuck released their superb self-titled debut album in 2011, things went quiet for a while – and then their frontman, Daniel Blumberg, ran off to make lo-fi alt rock as Hebronix. We're pleased to report that on their latest album 'Glow And Behold' the slimmed-down Yuck are still as noisy and sweet as ever, and that without Blubmerg's slacker-rock influence they've become a hot mess of shoegazing guitars and misty synths: instead of ripping Pavement-like through noisy slacker-rock riffs, Yuck Mk II seem determined to power on into the kind of churning serenity pegged out by My Bloody Valentine. Yum.
