Yard Act – Where’s My Utopia? (Maroon Vinyl)
Yard Act’s second album, Where’s My Utopia?, sees the Leeds outfit expanding their post-punk template into new sonic and lyrical territory. Known for their sharp, sardonic commentary, the band injects more groove, melody, and even surreal humour into this follow-up. Tracks like “Dream Job” and “We Make Hits” blend spoken-word delivery with funk-infused rhythms and bold production choices. It’s an album that reflects on fame, anxiety, and modern life, while resisting easy answers. Packed with personality, wit, and inventive songwriting, Where’s My Utopia? is a bold, self-aware progression that builds on Yard Act’s breakout success.
