Listen to The Haunted Youth’s new single, murder me
“I want to show the vulnerable part of men and boys and celebrate it…” The Haunted Youth have unveiled the next single from new album Boys Cry Too.

The Haunted Youth have shared a new single, murder me.
The track is taken from the Joachim Liebens-led band’s upcoming album Boys Cry Too, which is due out on May 8 via Play It Again Sam.
Speaking about the LP as a whole, the frontman explains, “I was really in touch with the male side of my emotions. The first half of the record is basically how everyone sees a boy when he’s heartbroken: he puts his walls up, he’s paranoid, he’s angry, he’s aggressive. But then the second half is this whole other story – it’s vulnerable.
“I want to show the vulnerable part of men and boys and celebrate it instead of making it this whole stigma that’s been going on for so long.”
