Event Navigation
Wasted Youth play music that is “energetic, psychedelic, prone to semi-improvised and chaotic detours…combined with a selection of melodic and memorable tunes” (Billboard, 2024). “The original Wasted Youth, were probably one of the best bands to come out of post punk East London” (Louder Than War, 2022).
They were hugely popular as the Eighties dawned with punks looking for something more sexy and sophisticated and looked set to become much more than the cult band they became. They pre-dated Post Punk and Goth and are still remembered as quietly-influential and a superb live band by fans. Their 1981 album ‘Wild and Wandering’ is widely considered to be an overlooked classic which has sold in excess of 25,000 copies in its lifetime.
Wasted Youth return to The Moth Club having played a sell-out show there in June 2024. They will be promoting their new album ‘Neo Noir”.
Specially invited support act for the evening is Jamie Perrett, a good friend and amazing singer/musician/performer, who you really need to see! The DJ for the night is the wonderful Jeffrey Munday, who will be playing a selection of toe-tapping favourites and some obscure gems.
This is Wasted Youth’s only London appearance this year so make sure you get your fix at The Moth Club on Thursday, July 24. This promises to be a night to remember, so don’t miss it!
