VIDEO OF THE DAY: “MIDNIGHT’S WHEN” BY YOUNG PRISMS

San Francisco shoegazers Young Prisms make music that sounds like it floats on a thick fog, winding its way through a dark, mysterious night. Inspired by loss, loneliness, and being stranded at Heathrow during an ice storm, their sophomore release, In Between (Kanine, March 2012), is another trip through a haunted landscape, a worthy follow-up to their 2011 debut, Friends for Now. Consisting of childhood friends Gio Betteo and Matthew Allen, singer Stefanie Hodapp, singer-guitarist Ashley Thomas, and drummer Jordan Silbert, Young Prisms navigate through the darkness on such tracks as “Dead Flowers,” “Four Hours (Away),” “Floating in Blue,” and the downright bouncy “Runner.” Young Prisms will be at Glasslands Gallery on November 7 with Magic Trick and Crinkles and at Mercury Lounge on November 9 with Tamaryn, which should make for a particularly strange and magnetic show.
