Belgian indie revelation The Haunted Youth returns with epic new single ‘In My Head’
“There are flashes of '80s indie, goth and synth-pop in his songwriting that echo Future Islands and divert some of the tracks into a euphoric trance” – The Line of Best Fit
“Dawn of the Freak is a well-crafted set of shoegazerish dream-pop combining shimmering guitars and synths with bittersweet melodies and dark, angst-fueled lyrics” – KEXP
‘In My Head’ is the highly anticipated new single by The Haunted Youth, the band of Belgian multi-instrumentalist Joachim Liebens, and a monumental indie anthem about being confronted with one’s own worst enemies in love and relationship.
“When love brings out the worst in you, the end of the honeymoon phase, where you are confronted by your own worst enemies: yourself and your demons, which are awakened by truly feeling vulnerable with someone.” Joachim Liebens says.
The band has just returned from a memorable German tour with Canadian indie phenomenon Ekkstacy. In 2023 and 2024, The Haunted Youth headlined shows all across Europe and graced the stages of major festivals including Iceland Airwaves, Lowlands, Best Kept Secret, Eurockéennes, Rock Werchter, Pukkelpop and Montreux Jazz.
Liebens is currently working on a follow-up to the massively popular and critically acclaimed debut album Dawn of the Freak. More updates: soon!
