THE YOUNG GODS Vinyl & CDs

Review: Terry Riley's 'In C' had a huge impact on 20th Century music, first presented in 1964, it sounds out of this world, even today, and is as fixated on creating a musical impression as it is the technical rules it insists upon to achieve that - 53 phrases, each musician allowed to repeat theirs as many times as they like so long as they do things in the order they first appeared, making success reliant on listening to each other.

The Young Gods may not have such frameworks, but nevertheless also greatly effected countless other artists. They're a band that - to paraphrase LCD Soundsystem - really did sell, or maybe swap, their guitars in favour of synthesisers, their innovation cannot be understated. Here, then, they offer a new interpretation of Riley's conceptual masterpiece, following his rulebook while somehow managing to make it all new.
