| 3.5 great | Erwann S. STAFF | January 8th 24 |
Never really adhered to Youth Lagoon's proposition but it's hard denying how pretty this record is. Gentle hushes accompany subtle yet lush bedroom pop compositions for a result that's as soothing as it is catchy.

Youth Lagoon in the most sparse, antiprogressing and anticlimactic, bloopy quirk display to date, complete with their traditional irksome vocals and minimalist song-writing that is about as full of personality as a moldy brick.

After many listen the simple appeal of Trevor Powers?s fourth album under the Youth Lagoon pseudonym is what makes me keep coming back for more. The simple indie and bedroom pop aesthetics allow for a light charm that many modern albums in this style have lost. For such an adventurous electronic career under his actual name, he is able to clean up everything for a bright and shimmery listening experience on ?Heaven Is a Junkyard?. He continues to strip away the lo-fi quality of his early work as he makes everything airy and simple, which works extremely well on here. The album is not going to blow you away on first listens, but like many of the great modern indie projects, the simplicity of it will have you coming back for more.
