Jealous Young Men

Jealous Young Men is the second album by the Johannesburg Noise Rock band Sounds of the Wildebeest, and the first album after the namechange from Shitburglars.

Writing
The writing process for this album was a lot more hectic, as Patrick was trying to exit The Infection around the time of its writing process. The songs are noticeably darker than the ones on the previous album, after Patrick decided he wanted to take a more serious approach with his music.

The first song was written by Jesse Braun, who passed away a day before the album's release and the rest were written by Patrick Star.

Recording
As Patrick was, again, leaving The Infection, the recording process was slow for the band's usual pace, Patrick played multiple instruments on this record, as Nat and Ricky were ill on multiple occasions during the recording, because of some bad seafood.

The album was produced in three hours by Ricky van der Zwoeb.
