serendoodle This album is everything I love in music and more wrapped up in a bow. Every track is absolutely scrumptious, like a full brain massage, and Trace is one of my top 3 favourite songs EVER. I am beyond ecstatic to get this in the mail, words can’t even describe. Favorite track: Trace.

Robert Rackley Though the band dialed the chiptune back for this record, it's easily one of my favorite shoegaze albums. The glide guitar on "Crucify You" is a highlight. Favorite track: Crucify You.
Edward Rossi

Edward Rossi Fuzzy guitars mixed with expert songwriting, reverbed out drums and glistening synths. Everything I ever wanted and more. Favorite track: Crucify You.

SnorriSputnik I feel cheated that I only now discovered this band and this album. Definitely in my top five albums of all time. I wish TDG was still producing such magical music. Favorite track: It's Only A Matter of Time My Love.

traincalledthomas Ridiculously good. A lot better than their debut, but for some reason it gets less attention. Great riffs on 'Crucify You', 'Dream About Me,' and 'White Moth' is filled with interesting moments. Favorite track: White Moth.

about

Spirit Youth, the album that rewrites just about every assumption about Brooklyn’s most promising dream-pop band. For starters, the Depreciation Guild is not Slowdive’s second-coming. While Feldman and guitarist Christoph Hochheim also play in the Pains of Being Pure at Heart, they founded The Depreciation Guild two years prior to the Pains’ formation. The two bands complement one another, with Pains teetering on the twee side of things and The Depreciation Guild building its very own blend of 8-bit beats, clanging chords and heady hooks.

We put more of an emphasis on songs than textures,” adds guitarist Christoph Hochheim. In other words, there’s more to a Depreciation Guild record than disembodied vocals and distorted guitars— three-dimensional details like the pinpoint percussion of Christoph’s twin brother Anton and the fluttering effects of the trio’s honorary ‘fourth member’, its vintage Famicom system.
