The Haunted Youth can safely be called the biggest Belgian indie rock sensation of recent years. The five-piece band led by Joachim Liebens creates an equally oppressive and melancholic mix of shoegaze, dreampop, and new wave. Echoes of Slowdive and The Cure resonate, also in the title of the recently released second album Boys Cry Too. With confidence, The Haunted Youth has made the longest track (In My Head) the opener, and successfully: the perfectly constructed track immediately knocks out the unsuspecting listener. And then the rest is yet to come!
