He explains, <em>&#8220;the track is a love letter written by my collaborator Aurora Shields, but dissolved into a song. As long as the patterns in the colours of a rainy summer sky mash together with a glowing streetlight continue to prevail in a bittersweet tangerine tone, so do the patterns in the musical notes of yearning and infatuation, of tenderness and chaos, rapture and combustion. Complimentary patterns of the night and day will always prevail. We are all experiencing sadness and happiness through love, and that&#8217;s the balance of it. That&#8217;s life, I suppose.&#8221;<\/em> Check out the video for <em>Patterns Prevail<\/em> via YouTube below. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VP8OxVPIM-c?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-CA&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Young Guv&#8217;s latest LP &#8216;GUV I,&#8217; delivers a collection of staggeringly poignant and infectious pop tunes which he describes akin to <em>&#8220;people-watching in a foreign country in the morning, trying not to cry from the overwhelming feeling of sadness and happiness.&#8221;<\/em> Another way of putting it; Young Guv songs are about being alone. The album is the first volume of a two-part LP series which will be out on August 2 via Run For Cover Records &#8212; details on the second will come later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Young Guv aka Ben Cook is a dedicated and prolific songwriter. You may know him from his work and part of legendary bands such as Fucked Up and No Warning. But Young Guv is the only place to hear music that belongs entirely to Ben Cook &#8211; music that comes into the world owing nothing to a bandmate or a client or a genre convention, whether affectionately observed or cheekily subverted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since 2008, Cook has released a steady drip of singles and EPs, plus two full-lengths. Sometimes Young Guv songs have guitars and &#8220;British Invasion&#8221; style harmonies, and sometimes they have synths and a modulated voice. But they always have unforgettable choruses and lyrics whose dry wit and understated acuity knocks you flat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/YoungGuv_Artwork_LO-9900000000079e3c.jpeg?resize=800%2C800\" alt=\"Young Guv GUV 1 album artwork\" class=\"wp-image-31837\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/YoungGuv_Artwork_LO-9900000000079e3c.jpeg?w=800&amp;ssl=1 800w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/YoungGuv_Artwork_LO-9900000000079e3c.jpeg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/YoungGuv_Artwork_LO-9900000000079e3c.jpeg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/YoungGuv_Artwork_LO-9900000000079e3c.jpeg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/YoungGuv_Artwork_LO-9900000000079e3c.jpeg?resize=144%2C144&amp;ssl=1 144w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption>Album artwork by: Braulio Amado<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8216;<strong>GUV I&#8217; tracklisting<br><\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/prescriptionpr.cmail20.com\/t\/j-l-mdtkjdd-ejlihlkhu-h\/\" target=\"_blank\">Pre-order here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1 &#8211;&nbsp;Patterns Prevail<br>2 &#8211;&nbsp;Roll With Me<br>3 &#8211;&nbsp;Every Flower I See<br>4 &#8211; Luv Always<br>5 &#8211; Didn&#8217;t Even Cry<br>6 &#8211; High On My Mind<br>7 &#8211; Exceptionally Ordinary<br>8 &#8211; Boring Story<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Young Guv has shared his new video and single, Patterns Prevail.
