Yuck is a multi-national band–its four young members hail from London, Japan, and New Jersey–but for all their disparity, they’ve seemed to agree on one prevalent sound and style–indie rock circa 1992 (ironically, around the time they were all born). Yuck’s self-titled debut is chock full of reverbing guitars, fuzzed-out vocals, and lackadaisical melodies. The comparisons are inevitable–their crunchier songs are very Pavement, their mellower songs are very Sparklehorse. But it would be unfair to tag Yuck as derivative copycats. They inject their own youthful vibrancy into infectious janglers like “Georgia” and a compelling amount of heart and sympathy into slower songs like “Suicide Policeman;” it’s both original and believable. Yuck isn’t mimicking the 90s sound; they’re translating it for the next generation. With Tame Impala. ERIN K. THOMPSON
