Young Guv - GUV IV

 

Ben Cook and his band have released another delicious album under the Young Guv moniker. GUV IV starts with the jangle pop/power pop of GUV III but spreads its wings into other euphoric guitar pop territories such as west coast guitar pop, country rock (see "Maybe I Should Luv Somebody Else" below), psychedelic pop, and even a bit of danceable '90s rock (see "Overcome" below). Of course, fans of Ben Cook and Young Guv will not be surprised at the versatility or the pervasively top quality melodies and performances. That it is the project's second record in the first half of 2022 is amazing, but some people just spend their pandemic time more fruitfully than the rest of us.

GUV IV is out now via Run For Cover Records.
