Lord Youth release new single "April 25th" on May 26th

Inbetween the recently released selftitled 10" vinyl EP and an upcoming full length album in fall, here's another side of Lord Youth. Different from the pop noir of the debut EP, the title track, April 25th, is a rather groovy, piano-driven take. It doesn't feature the Chilton Talentmaker, but recalls a bit of early 70s Alex Chilton The B-side instrumental returns to the spooky scenery, even more with the accompanying video 

April 25th. One Month and a day too late. Out now.

Both songs are not from the forthcoming album and only available digitally.

The accompanying videos are both edited from existing older footage.
"April 25th" - a surrealistic retelling of a guy, being at the wrong party - uses pictures from Andy Warhol's EPI (Exploding Plastic Inevitable, 1966-67 ). "Haunted Radio" is edited on the opening sequence from a beautiful experimental shortfilm by Aleksandar Ilić, entitled "Malj" (Yugoslavia, 1977).

A first full length album by Lord Youth, entitled "Gray Gardens" is scheduled for September 2017.
