Kudos to our dearest
Relentless Noisemaker for the heads-up to
Die Jungen, the latest project of Southampton resident Klaus von Barrel, up until now mainly known for the dark synth waves of
The KVB. Die Jungen's debut EP is a terrific, pure 50s throwback, a gloomy yet grooving piece of lo-fi pop that is splendidly held together by von Barrel's dark, melancholic crooning, most beautifully exemplified in EP closer
In The End, a song that indeed could score the end credits of every fading memory of our youth. We guess it won't be all good in the end, but at least we can be sure that there's always gonna be music like this to ease our pain.
