ATP! Live Review: Young Statues - The Barbary Philadelphia, PA (4/7/2013)

Earlier this month, tons of kids lined up early on a Sunday evening, wrapping around the side of the Barbary for the ‘Young New England Tour,’ Young Statues' full U.S. run with Transit and Seahaven. While most seemed to be excited for Transit, I came out (and further put off the paper I had to write that night) to watch Young Statues play just a few days after their new EP, Age Isn’t Ours, dropped. This was my first time seeing the local NJ/Philly band, I had high expectations, and I was anything but let down.

Opening with 'Your Seasons Stays the Same' from their self-titled, the band got right down to business and, by the end of the first song, Young Statues had kids pocketing their iPhones to check out music that they might not have set out to see, but ended up being really glad they did.

ATP! Album Review: Young Statues – The Covers EP

Young Statues’ Carmen Cirignano has one of the more distinct timbres to his voice of singers today, and one that can tend to dictate the overall feel of many of the band’s songs. But “The Covers EP” gives us a chance to hear that voice in various contexts of other’s compositions. These songs weren’t chosen to be replicated or reinvented, they were chosen to be honored, and it’s refreshing to hear some covers that weren’t just commissioned for a compilation.

It all starts with Billy Bragg’s ‘A New England’, whose original romantic inspiration from two satellites back in 1983 and seeping British accent have been refolded into a dying-love duet. The exquisite choice of Tigers Jaw’s Brianna Collins fills the female role missing from the original (but filled by Kirsty MacColl on a later version), and it’s all enriched with new harmony and invigorated with an adventurous strumming rhythm.
