Forget everything you thought you knew about New Young Pony Club, because on their sophmore album it's all changed. If 2007's critically acclaimed, Mercury Music Prize nominated 'Fantastic Playroom' was the culmination of the hybrid disco/punk sound they pioneered, 'The Optimist' heralds the beginning of a brave new future for the band. From the moment the band released their debut 7" in 2005, their unique blending of dark disco, pop punk and anthemic new wave found itself swept up in the cult of 'New Rave'. Despite the fact NYPC quickly became one of the key figures in the movement, something was amiss. Musically, they were boldly venturing into uncharted territory. The turning point came with the album's title track; a swarthy, deliciously menacing number that pushed the band completely out of their comfort zone. This new lease of creative freedom opened the band up to explore more experimental sides of themselves; like the psychedelic balladry of 'Stone' and atmospheric, cracked beauty of 'The Architect'. So the album 'The Optimist' delves into psychological black holes with brutal clarity and captures the band at their most extreme. There they are fame-fatigued ('Dolls'), hopeful on the tightrope of despair ('Monochrome') and gleefully moving on ('Lost A Girl'). Self produced and more importantly self funded and self released, 'The Optimist' is the sound of a band taking full control of their present and future, circumnavigating their own way. It's an assured, deliciously adventurous next step for New Young Pony Club. Open your ears and have a listen.
