The idea of youth - wasted, gilded or otherwise - has always featured prominently in M83's music. "I loved being a teenager,'' says Anthony Gonzalez, who is M83. That time of discovery - and of course the era in which Gonzalez was a teenager - greatly impacted the making of Saturdays = Youth. Originally released in 2008, this record features the singles "We Own The Sky," "Kim & Jessie" and "Graveyard Girl." It's a shimmering, nostalgic pop ode to the '80s and M83's most explicit celebration of how it feels to be dazed, confused, and 15 years old.
