Description: | 'Ain't Smiled In Ages,' the debut album from Everyone You Know, is a record of a big night out; from the anticipation that drags you through the work week to the euphoria found under the lights of the nightclub and through to the bittersweet comedown the morning after. It's a collection of songs with their hearts on their sleeve that push boundaries and burst with emotion, establishing siblings Rhys and Harvey as songwriters with a unique ability to distill the chaos and adventure of a Saturday night into a body of work that stands the test of time. With references ranging from Moby to Kendrick Lamar's classic Good Kid Maad City via the '90s cult film ??Human Traffic,? ??Ain't Smiled In Ages? is an uncompromising vision of downtown hedonism and the beating hearts of those who live for the weekend. - Ain't Smiled In Ages, the debut album from Everyone You Know, is a document of a big night out; from the anticipation that drags you through the working week up to the euphoria found under nightclub lights and straight through until the bittersweet comedown the morning after. It's a heart on sleeve collection of boundary-pushing songs that burst with emotion, establishing siblings Rhys and Harvey as songwriters with a unique ability to distil the chaos and adventure of a Saturday night into a body of work built to last the test of time. - The brothers worked on the album out of their home studio, the same home studio that was used to make The Drive, She Don't Dance and Our Generation. Their debut EP, Cheer Up Charlie, was released in 2018 and was followed by 2021's Just For The Times mixtape. They have had their music appear on FIFA 20, as well as playing Reading & Leeds and supporting Noel Gallagher. - The moods, experiences and emotions of a big night out vibrate throughout Ain't Smiled In Ages with co-writers David Sneddon and Theo Hutchcraft helping to craft the material. There are uplifting moments and moments of unbridled joy, sure, but there is a darkness that sits underneath them all. Rhys's vocals, delivered in an almost spoken word fashion, navigate their way through the troubles that exist outside of the smoking areas and sticky-floored pubs. He took inspiration from real life and would record notes on his phone while on nights out himself. - With references that range from Moby to Kendrick Lamar's classic Good Kid Maad City via the '90s cult movie Human Traffic, Ain't Smiled In Ages is an uncompromising vision of inner-city hedonism and the beating hearts of those living for the weekend. "This is the clearest vision of who we are and what Everyone You Know are about," Rhys explains. "It's not about chasing radio or trends, it's about writing songs that connect with people and stand the test of time." More than that, it's for the loyal fans who have stuck by the boys while they worked to reach this point. "We haven't had the opportunity to do this until now and we hope we've done them proud." |
