Yard Act - Where's My Utopia (Island Records)

Yard Act's second album, ‘Where's My Utopia’, deepens the Leeds collective's exploration of contemporary social fragmentation through increasingly ambitious sonic arrangements The record, produced by the band and Gorillaz' Remi Kabaka Jr, finds James Smith's incisive spoken narratives paired with more expansive instrumental textures, moving beyond the minimalism of their debut whilst maintaining their characteristic lyrical urgency. The band constructs elaborate post-punk frameworks that accommodate Smith's rapid-fire observations on aspiration, disillusionment, and collective yearning.
