"Youth Code’s 2014 release, A Place to Stand, is an expression of rage that could only come from Los Angeles. Perfectly capturing the frustration and claustrophobia of the early 80s LA hardcore scene but re-appropriating that aggression and melding it to the strict, pounding electronics of classic industrial.
Recorded by Josh Eustis (Nine Inch Nails, Telefon Tel Aviv, Sons of Magdalene), Side A of A Place to Stand features four new Youth Code tracks that showcase the band exploring an evolved sense of melodic synth work and more varied tempos than anything they have released to date. From the pure adrenal rush of opening track, Consuming Guilt and the Wax Trax-esque dance floor anthem To Burn Your World to the lush synthscape melodies of For I Am Cursed You can hear Ryan George and Sara Taylor perfectly balancing respect for their elders whilst creating something that’s uniquely their own. Rounding out the Youth Code originals on Side A, A Litany (A Place to Stand) figuratively stands out, as it is a spoken-word diatribe on society that encapsulates the feeling of the entire record.
Side B of "A Place to Stand" collects four remixes of earlier Youth Code tracks, from artists as diverse as Corrections House’s Sanford Parker, Sub Pop signed avant rap crew Clipping., dark electro / ebm mainstays God Module & the dark and minimal techno mastermind, Silent Servant."
