M83 return with a solid release that works together as album both conceptually and stylistically. Moving on from their rather chaotic and unrooted Post-Rock past, M83 finally seem to have found a comfortable and more confident place in their music.

With references to New Wave classics such as the Cocteau Twins, Talk Talk and Depeche Mode, M83 elate their identity into new compelling and refreshing heights. Saturdays=Youth is a detailed and well-thought amalgam of the best and most authentic moments of the 80s New Wave, brought into the 00s in a subtle, mature and most unexpected way. Is this the beginning of a wonderful Post-New Wave era for M83 or just a lucky one off? Only time will tell. One thing is for sure though, this is probably their best release to date. Highly recommended ****
