The Afterlife by YACHT



This is an incredibly interesting Band, and this particular song is probably not the best representation of their entire range, but it carries a very interesting message, and it WILL grow on you. The rest of the album is similarly fresh and intoxicating all at the same time.


Here is a quote from a review I read.

“YACHT is about group consciousness. YACHT is about the individual man or woman. If you believe these assertions to be contradictory, consider the Triangle: it is both a collection of points and a shape.” Along with many other of YACHT’s platitudes, so reads this line from YACHT’s mission statement. Some were interesting, while others were banal, but there was one in particular that caught my eye. “YACHT believes in an Afterlife. YACHT does not believe in ‘Heaven,’ or ‘Hell’,” and throughout this album, it shows.
