'Go Farther In Lightness' is the sophomore album from Australian indie group Gang Of Youths. Following their candid and broad 2014 debut 'The Positions', they've returned with an album which is bold not just in its opus-like size, but also in its attempts to document the emotional highs and lows of life, relationships and grief. They draw from a range of influences, with elements of pop-punk, post-punk and indie-rock in the mix. There are even passages of orchestral strings, with 'L'imaginaire', 'Le symbolique' and 'Le Reel' punctuating the heavier moments with reflective pauses. The combination of lyrical storytelling and anthemic writing sounds reminiscent of The Hold Steady and early The Killers. What sets Gang Of Youths apart from other bands in their field - particularly on this album - is their sheer ambition, conviction and aspiration, which undoubtedly demands respect.
