Editor's note

Young Galaxy's atmospheric pop and shifting sound

A Montreal band that moved from dream pop toward electronic territory over five albums.

For their atmospheric side, try 'The Angels Are Surely Weeping.' 'We Have Everything' captures their reflective pop sound well.

Catherine McCandless's vocals give the band its recognizable character, floating over Stephen Ramsay's layered guitar work. Songs like 'We Have Everything' and 'The Angels Are Surely Weeping' show their knack for atmospheric pop with a reflective edge. Their 2012 single 'Come and See' drew attention for lyrics about female empowerment.

Young Galaxy formed in Montreal in the early 2000s around McCandless and Ramsay. Their debut 'Final Voyage' came out in 2006, followed by 'Shapeshifting' in 2008 and 'Ultramarine' in 2011. Their sound has shifted from dream pop and shoegaze influences toward more electronic territory.

Archive material and source history

Young Galaxy formed in Montreal in the early 2000s around vocalist Catherine McCandless and guitarist Stephen Ramsay, with drummer Jesse Zubot and bassist James 'Biz' Ferrer. Their debut album 'Final Voyage' came out in 2006, followed by 'Shapeshifting' in 2008 and 'Ultramarine' in 2011. The band's sound has shifted over time, moving from dream pop and shoegaze influences toward more electronic territory.

Catherine McCandless's vocals give the band its recognizable character, floating over Stephen Ramsay's layered guitar work. Songs like 'We Have Everything' and 'The Angels Are Surely Weeping' show their knack for atmospheric pop with a reflective edge. Their 2018 album 'Falsework' continued in a more mature, atmospheric direction.

In 2012, their single 'Come and See' drew some attention for lyrics that were interpreted as anti-male, though the band described it as a song about female empowerment. Young Galaxy has released five full-length albums, with their most recent being 'Falsework' in 2018.
