...and we are still reflecting on this incredibly beautiful performance and have a big smile on our faces. The first time with five of us. Two new faces in the band. So many wonderful moments in preparation and on stage. For many, the Fusion Festival is one of the most exciting festivals in Europe and of course it was an honor for us to play the closing concert on the Neuland stage. Our calmness and our depth were soaked up by the audience. Gratitude was returned to us and we received many nice messages afterwards. We are very grateful for this opportunity and would like to thank Fusion for the invitation...and of course the great stage team for the great sound.

The encore is from D.$ahin: "Bittersweet Overkill"

Burn is the second YS album and written as a direct follow-up album to Brutal Flowers. If their first album was an exercise in the incremental, a construction of poise and patience, Burn, should be taken way the fuck at it’s word: it quite literally finds catharsis in twisted reverse. Birthed out the malignant kick found in deconstruction and chaos. Evil twin, psychotic younger sibling, call it what the hell you like. It might take you a moment to get the lay of the land in this darkly mutated world. Like a bug eye’d native first confronted with a zippo, the hit is radical and instant: a new way for the world to go up in smoke.

Splice the Seattle slacker scene with the spliffhead soundsystem culture of the '90s Bristol trip-hop scene, then cross-breed that with the DIY optimism and glee in creation found in the cut-and-paste worlds of skate, graffiti and hiphop, now run that through the skitzo basement mind of John.T. Gast and you’re close to the kind of scorched earth and spiked suburbia that birthed Burn.

Dunno quite what YS have been ingesting of late, but this massively twisted LP touches on a host of gloriously fucked totemic underground sources while not sounding much like any of them. It has the ballsy swagger and hard flipping of the script as Massive Attack’s seminal Blue Lines. Indeed, the eponymous album tracks sound similar - the opener ‘Burn’ is like a hard-nosed, jammed-out redux of ‘Blue Lines’. Getting into a kind of slow-spinning overdubbed maximal euphoria ending with mumbled downer vocals, struggling to conceal their tongues in their cheeks, there’s an air of paranoia and proto-conspiracy theory. It’ll leave you scratching your head, feeling like you’ve stepped into a New World Order governed by a cacophony of dropouts, dope fiends, and apocalyptic stoners. A cracked-out world somewhere between Richard Linklater’s movie Slacker (1990) and Marc Singer’s Dark Days (2001).

The rest of the album parts like a tongue on a wine glass: Smith and Mighty, Bandulu, ambient Luke Slater records, Wah Wah Wino, Nurse with Wound, Land of the Loops, Placid Angels, Adrian Sherwood, Urban Tribe and DJ Shadow can all be heard in momentary splatters - but Burn like other works by YS, is its own ritual beast. ‘Moth’, a track that has been circulating the underground DJ circuit for many moons, is a raw, chopped, and screwed slice of stoner erotica that reeks of obsession and unrequited desire. Elsewhere, on tracks like ‘Switch’, ‘Trying’, and ‘Drift’, the throughline from Brutal Flowers can be heard. Underneath the driving heavy gravity, the trademark emotional intimacies of YS linger: eternal recurrence, ghosts of static and shortwave, worn memories of the playful and painful sort. The brief moments when flashes of orchestral ambience emerge from beneath the swagger are so pure, personal, and unguarded that, for a moment, they leave you completely alone. In the album’s closer ‘End’, you can hear the fleeting promise and DIY possibilities of an analogue world and embers of ash that flutter in its wake: where it seemed, for a brief moment, that collective of DJs, engineers, rappers, graffiti artists and skate crews were emerging from the streets, giving the middle fingers to the system, before just as quickly disappearing back to the doldrums of obscurity. ‘End’ is a bittersweet ode to early soundsystem culture, MCs and pirate radio - an out of step time where for a moment the underdogs and weirdos seemed to be kicking on the door of something bigger.

A veritable teenage doof suite dosed with desire, claustrophobia, and deviance. Burn is a good old howl at the moon: lonely, raw, and out for blood; basement style exegesis at its best. A thump to the gut, a stud through your blood. A dubbed-to-death classic straight out of the annals of nowhere. A perfect postcard from oblivion. A bleak, bold, and personally ferocious vision of tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow.

VENT W/ LIL NEEL


Just a  melodic hypnotic
Was born on Friday
Got two different sides
N right now they fighting 
But this perfect timing 
To go and confide 
In the book 
Ive been writing 
Up in the jungle 
Been swinging by vines
Cause I hate that 
whole damn world is divided
2 different lines
2 different scripts 
Memorized 
 like the flash 
when you die 
Off of these drugs 
Got me 
Sleepy like Biden 
Been vibing too long
Yea this shit got me tired
Shit got me wired
Life’s been fucked
But I won’t retire
I got my heart 
and my soul
In this shit
Watchu know 
bout it bitch
Every thought 
in my mind is a rhyme 
Living this life for all my people 
And every thot 
I actually thought was mine 

These hoes get mad for cracking jokes 
But let jokes crack it don’t make sense 
I might disappear for real 
like for year
to build Suspense
Been in future
Yall still catching up
Is it lack of 
common sense
Or lack off love 
Shit 
 Everybody’s gotta vent 

 a melodic hypnotic
Was born on Friday
Got two different sides
N right now they fighting 
But still they decided 
To go and confide 
In the book
Ive been writing 
Been Up in the jungle 
Been swinging by vines
Cause I hate 
that the whole damn world is divided
2 different lines
2 different scripts 
Memorized 
Just like the flash when you die 
Off of these drugs 
Got me 
Sleepy like Biden 
Been vibing too long
Yea this shit got me tired
Shit got me wired
Life’s been fucked
But I won’t retire
I got my heart 
and my soul
In this shit
Watchu know 
bout it, bitch
Every thought 
in my mind is a rhyme 
Living this life 
for all my people 
and every thought
I actually thought was mine 



LIL NEEL :

Doves & skylarks in my skies
The sun disguised in the horizon
Sometimes I slick my hair back
Sukuna jujutsu kaisen
My pocket got a lighter wit a brick
Phone got connections like Verizon
Got ran over right on central so it glitch
Sometimes I like it
Depression is a war inside my mind
I’m always fightin
I’m switchin up my flow just like the weather
Like the climate
Smoke is emanating from my body
Shawty I feel like a titan
I’m laying down my roots
Quite like the oak tree hit by lightning 
Bitch I’m planted
Boutta spread my wings
We taking off
I only landed for a second

Elevated way 2 high
I’m levitating out the planet
& we always goin harder
Than some Sheetrock or some granite
Baby don’t u ever take anything that I say
For granted no
Communicate w/ me if u relate
Do u understand me hoe 
Every 1 who held me down
u know I treat em like my family tho
Respectfully take this plan b
Right now I don’t want no family
Dunder Mifflin I got paper 
Manifesting money stacking
I pray for a loyal bitch that I can hit
Straight from the backend
Hold on lemme spark this spliff
And then I’ll get right back to rapping
Inhale exhale cough
Okay bitch I’m back in
I js got a crib first thing I did was get a nap in
My fridge empty as fuck
I swear to god ain’t got a napkin
Made this shit from nothing
Had to get back into trappin
Luckily I got a couch
But that don’t mean that I’m relaxin
I out run the devil every day I get my laps in
Put a plate up in my microwave
This weekend I’m relapsing
Having vivid visions of my friends
They sing and dance inside the caverns
Of my memories while I’m stuck in a trance
It’s like the surface of the ocean
sinking deep under the waves
My grey matter’s over Saturn
Put my mind in outer space
Chasing rabbits the mad hatter’s
Skating down a winter lake
Drifting the Infiniti g35 all fucking day
Shoutout $uicide its g59 until the grave
Aye

VENT
