On The Rise: Cruel Youth

Cruel Youth is a band recently formed in 2016. Lead singer, Natalia Noemi Keery-Fisher, started the three piece girl band with her husband William George Sinclair. The band's first EP titled +30mg was released on September 16, 2016.

The couples first run in the music industry took place years ago as solo careers. William George Sinclair, better known as his stage name, Willy Moon, has been a singer and song writer since 2010. Natalie Noemi Keery-Fisher, professionally known as Teddy Sinclair, was also known as Natalie Kills when she was an English singer and actress previous to starting Cruel Youth.

Their first release, Mr. Watson, was uploaded to the band's Soundcloud in February 2016. Following this was the first official single released on April 15, 2016 titled "Diamond Days". The single was produced by Paro, who also helped write "I Don't Love You" which would eventually fill a place on their debut album. On May 20, 2016 "Mr. Watson" was released as a single and followed with a video the next month.

After releasing the album in September Sinclair took to their fans with the following statement:

" Finally, after months of playing and perfecting,
our EP +30mg is complete! And now we want you to hear it... With the EP comes our latest single, "Hatefuck", a buzzing ballad I wrote about some of my very lowest moments. Of all drugs, love is the worst. It seems to come with a set of handcuffs but not key. Some people hit rocky bottom, some people crash right through and keep falling down - that was me, and if what came out was this song then it was certainly worth it. I hope it means as much to you as it does to us."

With lyrics and music relatable to many people with different life situations, Cruel Youth's album is fit for most everyone. Songs such as "Mr. Watson" and "Hatefuck" have a slower, more emotion reaching tone where as "Diamond Days" and "Alexis Texas" have a bit more upbeat music.

With not much recognition yet, the band has recently released their second music video for the song "Diamond Days". The band is currently on tour and Cruel Youth is a name you will want to listen out for, as they have amazing sound and lyrics and I'm sure much more in store for us.

Mistakes are something we all make, no matter how old we get. Most of the time, the mistakes we made are little and sometimes due to something out of our control. Yet, there are mistakes that are bigger than others. Personally, I have mistakes that I wish I could go back and undo. Here they are:

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
