As a band that released its first full length in 2000 and its second in 2003 followed by constant touring, wild partying and a lengthy hiatus, it would be hard to imagine there'd be much gas left in the tank, much less a resurgence. The Young Antiques, Atlanta's consummate power pop trio, re-united in 2007 and hit the ground running at full speed, playing shows and crafting energetic new tunes for a 3rd full-length album, Soundtrack To Tear Us Apart, a self-released CD which saw the light of day in 2009 and was met with welcoming reviews. UK blogger Leicester Bangs described the album as " angelically tough, and a garage sound that deserves to be heard by the outside world". The 'Tiques supported Soundtrack throughout the Southeast, then followed it up with 2010's Fucked Up In Public, a raucous 7-inch single that paid homage to denizens and bars of Atlanta's Little 5 Points night life. Atlanta's Creative Loafing called it "Best 7-inch Release Of The Year" and Performer Magazine stamped it "Vinyl Of The Month" in April 2011. Now in full resurgens mode, the 'Tiques have just released their brand new, 4th full-length. Entitled A Man, Not A Biography, the 12-in vinyl release (with accompanying digital download, of course) was engineered by Mike Wright (Black Lips), Dan Dixon (Biters), and Patrick "Tigger" Furguson (Five-Eight), and stands as a 38 minute long blueprint of what "angelically tough" power pop rock and roll should be: blazing guitar chords, soaring melodies, and Big Star-esque harmonies. Take it for a spin, and the smart and spirited songwriting of singer/guitarist Blake Rainey hums through, hammered down precisely by bassist Blake Parris and drummer Kevin Charney's propulsive rhythm section. This album is gritty and just plain good—the one that the 'Tiques were meant to make. At least for now… "Atlanta trio the Young Antiques play angry-young-man rock that draws the '80s Minneapolis hardcore scene as well as the Jam and Elvis Costello. With this unique mix, the band creates buoyant and propulsive songs that shoot straight to the heart of what makes good old rock & roll great."–All Music Guide .... .... With its own raw and potent mixture of post-punk, new wave, garage rock, and power pop that eerily drifts somewhere between 1977 and 1982 in spirit, The Young Antiques's compositions tend to be short, catchy, and brash, following the canon of the Ramones, Elvis Costello, the Jam, and the early loud, fast rules of the Minneapolis scene. .... 2009 Review:.. Young Antiques – Soundtrack to Tear Us Apart (Independent) You've got to love a band that can rock out in a song about Japanese architecture, and that's exactly what you get from Atlanta, Georgia's Young Antiques. Track two of this beautifully constructed artefact is a paean to Tadao Ando, master of melding nature with modernism. Young Antiques are drawn to the oxymoronic without ever descending to the simply moronic. They are angelically tough and their garage sound deserves to be heard by the outside world. Singer-songwriter Blake Rainey has taken years to develop the Young Antiques' raucous, energetic and passionate signature. "Laws" sees the tempo drop, but the intensity and sheer class of the operation is upheld. Rainey can switch from the detail of the mundane to huge sweeps of power chords and a keening vocal howl. A note of praise should be sounded for engineer Tim Delaney, who produces with clarity and power.

Soundtrack To Tear Us Apart, the third LP by Atlanta, Georgia's Young Antiques, cannot help but be the garage/power-pop trio's best release to date—and there's a few good reasons why:

Its origins. Engineered by Tim Delaney (Selmanaires, Swimming Pool Q's) in the basement of Atlanta's historic Biltmore Hotel, the album is raucous and energetic, focused and passionate. It features previously unrecorded live show favorites such as the post-punk scream-a-long "Crown" and the moody domestic drug-tale "Laws" nestled alongside newcomers like the angelic power-pop "Tadao Ando" and noise-guitar stomp "(There Isn't Anything That Means) Nothing At All."

It's been a long time coming. Singer/songwriter Blake Rainey and bassist Blake Parris formed the group sometime around 2000 and soon released their first full-length: Wardrobe For A Jet Weekend. In 2003, the band recorded and released Clockworker on the Two Sheds label in Atlanta. But after supporting both albums touring through the Midwest and up the northeastern coastline, the 'Tiques entered a forced hiatus as Clockworker drummer John Speaks exited the group. Rainey soon went on to release two solo albums (also on the Two Sheds label) and Parris joined local honky-tonk rockers Sodajerk.

Pop in to see a random rock show on the Atlanta scene in the past few years and you'd be hard pressed to not have heard lament for the 'Tiques long absence. Fortunately, Sodajerk drummer Kevin Charney convinced the Blakes that they weren't finished with the project by a long shot, and became the final, galvanizing piece of the band’s equation in the summer of 2007.

Soundtrack To Tear Us Apart is a forty-minute snapshot of a talented rock n' roll group picking right back up where they left off, continuing into the latter half of this decade with the same energetic stride they had when this new damn century began.



With its own raw and potent mixture of post-punk, new wave, garage rock, and power pop that eerily drifts somewhere between 1977 and 1982 in spirit, The Young Antiques’s compositions tend to be short, catchy, and brash, following the canon of the Ramones, Elvis Costello, the Jam, and the early loud, fast rules of the Minneapolis scene.
