About this product
2020 . Imagine a shoreline alone, carved from the continent, without land or water to border it, a rind of possibility, a moon-colored border between land and sea, knowing and unknowing. This is Conceptual Beach, a place John Rossiter, vocalist/guitarist of Los Angeles-based Young Jesus, describes as his long-time mental refuge, where he imagines himself living' like a medieval, stigmata-wrought hermit 'all his needs for okay-ness finally met. Out this August on Saddle Creek, their new album Welcome to Conceptual Beach pries our sobs from parentheticals and wields them with a brutal but tender force. They take these elements and translate them into a spacious ground for growth, for ourselves, our communities, our world. They affirm that change starts with how we reckon with ourselves as individuals, that we are all magicians, as the closing track suggests, 'making love and doing dishes, ' capable of conjuring new worlds for ourselves, and to live in others'.

In the 1980 documentary Philip Guston A Life Lived, the famed neo-expressionist talks about a painting he keeps starting over. InchIt looked alright - but it felt to me as if it were additions - this and that and that,Inch he says. InchWhat I'm always seeking is some great simplicity where the whole thing is just there.Inch InchThat, to me, is the ideal feeling of existing,Inch says John Rossiter, singer/guitarist of the LA-based art rock quartet Young Jesus. InchThat feeling you pursue when you're creating, when the world is opening up and things are on the cusp of beauty and revelation, but it's just out of reach. To maintain that in the face of depressing or difficult stuff is what I'd like to be able to do.Inch This pursuit is what drives Young Jesus, and it's documented on their new record The Whole Thing Is Just There. Taking it's name from the late painter's words, Young Jesus combines a palette of indie rock instrumentation with a spirit of unhindered spontaneity to construct - and deconstruct - emotionally potent and inventive sonic landscapes. Imbued with a sense of both desperation and discovery, each track unfolds like a deep sea voyage beginning on the familiar ground of a conventional song structure before setting sail for the open waters of instrumental experimentation and plumbing the depths of the unknown in search of some conceptual treasure before heading back to port.

2022 . The music of Young Jesus has always been about change. Bandleader and sole original member John Rossiter is a restless spirit, always moving, always seeking new sounds, new thoughts, new methods of working. Young Jesus' new album Shepherd Head is a dramatic departure for the band, delving deeper into the themes that have always fascinated Rossiter-love, loss, and God-approached in a completely new direction. It's a record of growth and exploration, pushing forward into the future with hope while still holding the pain and regrets of the past, seeking a balance for the present.
