Song of the Day - August 24, 2005

When I first heard the track "Shadowland," I thought it was a missing track from New Order's great album Low-Life. I was very surprised to find out it was the Australian band Youth Group. The song just has that about to burst out of a long bout of melancholy feeling, that many New Order tracks impart upon my soul. The music mirrors this experience by starting slowly and simply, and then bursting into an eruption of guitars, percussion, and vocals. Then slowly it ebbs back from this burst of emotion.
