Young Jesus

Young Jesus releasing a new EP & touring (stream "Baked Goods")

Young Jesus is following last year’s Grow / Decompose with a new EP called Void as Lob this week (5/19). We’re premiering “Baked Goods” off that EP. Like Young Jesus’ last album, “Baked Goods” is melancholic indie rock, led by singer John Rossiter’s engaging voice/lyrics. It also explodes into something much louder towards the end. Check it out below.

Pre-orders for the EP will be available here, and it will be out on cassette via Funeral Sounds.

Young Jesus is also touring with Pope, including two NYC shows. One is on June 13 at Aviv with Very Fresh and Spit, and the other is June 15 at Silent Barn. In addition to the new EP, they’ll have a zine (plus an accompanying ambient/improvisational tape) called Conceptual Beach on tour with them. All dates are listed below.
