The shadow that The Faint looms over the mid-west, as well as their involvement with revitalizing a particularly dark 80’s new wave sound all the way back to the early 2000’s cannot be dismissed. So when I heard that they had a new album coming out, along with a tour with Gang of Four. I sat up and paid attention, “Young and Realistic” brings back a lot of the baggage that make their previous albums Wet From Birth & Danse Macabre the classics that they are. Check out the song below.
