1000mods – Youth of Dissent (2020) – Exciting Stoner comes out, nostalgic Grunge comes in
Youth of Dissent goes thru 11 songs that will take you on a winding road of musical variance. Tracks like Lucid, Less is More and Pearl use simpler and more adherent riffs, the kind of sound that permeates the world of alternative rock in any rock station that you can tune in to chill out. In some parts of the journey the impregnated impression is that Cobain returned to the world of living and set up a new Nirvana, mainly in tracks like Warped and Blister. The similarity is yeld by the distorted straightforward riffs accompanied by hoarse and worn vocals. The stoner foundation vein rises to the surface in So Many Days even if in homeopathic doses. But as the best always remains for the end, the song Mirrors is the one that rescues the heavy and cadenced sound of 1000mods. This track resumes the type of sound that 1000mods used to play in the last album 3 years ago. I guarantee that when the song hits near the 4th minute, you will find yourself headbanging rhythmically, unconsciously and pleasantly.
If you're one of those who need Stoner to keep breathing, Youth of Dissent will leave you gasping for oxygen. But for the open-minded and even slightly nostalgic listener who is not afraid of changes and simplifications, the 1000mods rescues a piece of Seattle with style. For me there is a forgivable resentment of the heaviness being left so little and so final.
