ALBUM REVIEW
“Saturdays=Youth” is the title of the 4th album from French musician Anthony Gonzalez, who continues to carry the M83 banner. Having started out as a duo, this is M83’s second release since the departure of Nicolas Fromageu. Fans of previous work may have to adjust, but only slightly, as the album embarks down a musical path similar to that traversed by Lansing-Dreiden. While M83 continues its reverent courtship of the 1980s, this disc (re-)introduces us to a batch of decade hallmarks only hinted at on their first three albums. We are treated to the debut of vocalist Morgan Kibby (who often sounds a great deal like Kate Bush), lush soundscapes akin to Cocteau Twins (who producer Ken Thomas has worked with in the past), …and synth toms! Much of this exploration is done on the first half of the album, as tracks 7–11 close out the disc on more familiar ground.
Notable Tracks:
2. Kim & Jessie
3. Skin of the Night
4. Graveyard Girl
5. Couleurs
6. Up!
7. We Own the Sky
8. Highway of Endless Dreams
10. Dark Moves of Love
