On the last Before They Knew Better of the year, Justin Young gives us window into his musical youth. Spoiler alert: it's not what you might expect from The Vaccines! From his formative pop-punk phase through the many and various listening stages that shaped him, it's a window back to a sweatband-wearing, Power Violence-playing kid from The New Forest who grew up into one of indie rock's most charming frontmen. Enjoy!
