More about: Youth Sector

The grind. It’s something we’re all used to slogging through day-to-day and a feeling which Brighton’s Youth Sector have channeled into their latest single 'No Fanfare'. Released on Friday (13 March) as an ode against frustrating sacrifices, the new tune is best described as a twisting and heaving indie track for the ages, foreshadowing elements of art-school pop.

Outfitted in a special Raissa Pardini cover artwork, 'No Fanfare' is a stomper for when the clubs reopen - but for now, it's perfect to twist to in your bedroom.

We love those bridge breakdowns: ideal timing for letting you stand up on your bed, ready to jump off with your electric guitar.

Listen to it:

Youth Sector frontman Nick Tompkins explains: “No Fanfare' is about the feeling of working hard and making sacrifices for little to no reward. When you work hard for a cause, and the effort is not reciprocated by others, it can feel like your efforts are only going as far as to facilitate the laziness of everyone else.”

The band also referenced the current Covid-19 pandemic by Tweeting the tune with the words "it's one of the only things right now you can spread around and share with your friends and family".

In light of the current situation, there are no live dates incoming. But keep your eyes peeled: we hope that a normal life will resume soon!
