Youth Lagoon’s just-add-reverb pop is a study in the stultifying (and we recognize ours is a minority opinion), but it sure does make for good cinema. Director Tyler T Williams’ video for “July” – off young songwriter Trevor Powers’ debut album “The Year of Hibernation” – is bloody good. Williams had previously captured Youth Lagoon’s powerful nostalgia in “Montana,” and he’s also done videos for Craft Spells, Coma Cinema and Pandit. His story for “July” takes you unexpected places.
