Yuck



Crop_630

Yuck. A terrible band name. But the music? Tasty. With a melodic core dipped in alt-rock goodness (Dinosaur Jr, Pavement, and The Breeders to name a few), Yuck transcends pastiche with arty guitar noodling that is propulsive, catchy, and endearing. Whatever early 90's touchstones float your boat, you can bet they also float the London-based band right across the pond. Check out opening track "Get Away" from Yuck's self-titled debut or the perfect pick-me-up in "Georgia" below.
