SAUNA YOUTH DEATHS 12 Track Vinyl LP

Profile: Sauna Youth

Sauna Youth is an indie rock band from London, UK. The members are Richard Phoenix (Drums, Vocal), Lindsay Corstorphine (Lead Guitar), Jen Calleja (Sampler, Vocal) and Christopher Murphy (Bass Guitar).

The album was created and facilitated through a series of deadlines. The recording studio was booked before any songs had been written. Having a deadline in advance allowed for productive freedom through limitation and finite time: five months to write the album, that was it. This meant meeting every week to write no matter how many members could make it, filling in on each other’s instruments (reminiscent of how side-project Monotony came about: writer’s block in a Sauna Youth practice – removing yourself from your role in a band removes the old expectations) and using automatic writing processes.
