YOUNG LEGIONNAIRE (BLOC PARTY) - CRISIS WORKS (180g LP)

Young Legionnaire (Bloc Party) Crisis Works on 180g LP

Young Legionnaire is a London based trio formed by Gordon Moakes (Bloc Party), Paul Mullen (yourcodenameis:milo) and rounded out by Dean Pearson on drums.

Their debut album, Crisis Works, is a record loosely concerned with the idea that crisis can be engineered around us to make us more pliable. It is about volume, being heavy and being loud, as Gordon puts it, "We wanted to make a big, juddering noise but weave a trail of melody through it. Even though the format of guitar, bass, drums and vocal is established, is nothing groundbreaking, the possibilities are endless. There’s always another riff to write, a heavier sound to find. The record is about the brutal, the fragile and the possible."

Produced by Rich Jackson (Future Of The Left, The Automatic) Crisis Works combines the ferocious dynamics of Trail of Dead with the intensity of Husker Du, resulting in an album full of power and intent.
