TRACKLISTING AND EXTRA INFORMATION
The return of Yard Act. Wheres My Utopia? is the follow up to the Leeds bands critically-acclaimed debut record The Overload which arrived in January 2022. Written in snapshots of time between a relentless touring schedule, and produced jointly by the band and Gorillaz Remi Kabaka Jr, the quartets second act is a giant leap forward into broad and playful new sonic waters. Across the record, influences ranging from Fela Kuti to Ennio Moricone via Spillers 00s pop smash Groovejet make themselves known.

Its a celebratory palette upon which Smith allowed himself to reach lyrically deeper into himself than ever. Gone, largely, are the outward-facing character studies of yore, replaced with a set of songs that stare fully into the headlights of life, wrangling with the frontmans own fears and foibles to create a sort of Promethean narrative – but with jokes.
