The album was recorded in Bristol, England, and released on September 25, 2015 by Fat Possum Records. BackgroundPowers alluded to the fact that the album addressed breaking down barriers and acknowledging personal flaws.[1] He stated in an interview that the album was not named for an actual ballroom: “It’s a mystical place. I think of things in mental images, and while I was working on the album, I pictured this [ballroom]…a place that’s ominous but still inviting. And I needed an appropriate name for that, and ‘Savage Hills Ballroom’ fit," he said.[2] ReleaseOn July 13, 2015, "The Knower" became the first track to be distributed prior to the album's release; it was issued as a free single-sided 7" single. "Highway Patrol Stun Gun" was subsequently released on August 10 as a music video.[3] Critical reception{{Album ratings| MC = 74/100[4] | rev1 = AllMusic | rev1score = {{Rating|4|5}}[5] | rev2 = Consequence of Sound | rev2score = B-[6] | rev3 = DIY | rev3Score = {{Rating|4|5}}[7] | rev4 = NOW | rev4score = {{Rating|3|5}}[8] | rev5 = Pitchfork | rev5score = 7.2/10[9] | rev6 = Q | rev6score = {{Rating|3|5}} | rev7 = Slant | rev7score = {{Rating|2.5|5}}[10] | rev8 = Uncut | rev8Score = {{Rating|4|5}} | rev9 = Under the Radar | rev9score = 7.5/10 }}Savage Hills Ballroom received mostly positive reviews from contemporary music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 74, based on 10 reviews, which indicates "generally favorable reviews".[11] Ian Cohen of Pitchfork Media gave the album a positive review, stating, "Regardless of the subject matter or the production or the arrangements, the most truly self-searching Youth Lagoon album has Powers realizing he perhaps knew his position of strength all along—the inner child set adrift in the adult world, left to figure it out on his own."[9] Track listing{{tracklist| all_writing = Trevor Powers | collapsed = no | headline = | total_length = 36:47 | title1 = Officer Telephone | length1 = 3:02 | title2 = Highway Patrol Stun Gun | length2 = 4:10 | title3 = The Knower | length3 = 3:26 | title4 = No One Can Tell | length4 = 3:51 | title5 = Doll's Estate | length5 = 3:53 | title6 = Rotten Human | length6 = 4:28 | title7 = Kerry | length7 = 3:55 | title8 = Again | length8 = 3:45 | title9 = Free Me | length9 = 3:35 | title10 = X-Ray | length10 = 2:42 }} References1. ^{{cite web|last1=Gordon|first1=Jeremy|title=Youth Lagoon Details Savage Hills Ballroom, Shares "The Knower"|url=http://pitchfork.com/news/60355-youth-lagoon-details-savage-hills-ballroom-shares-the-knower/|website=Pitchfork|accessdate=10 August 2015}} 2. ^{{cite web|last1=Marketti|first1=Anna|title=Interview: Trevor Powers of Youth Lagoon|url=http://soundofboston.com/interview-trevor-powers-youth-lagoon/|website=Sound of Boston|accessdate=22 November 2015}} 3. ^{{cite web|last1=Sacher|first1=Andrew|title= Youth Lagoon shares new song; Yvette added to Rough Trade|url=http://www.brooklynvegan.com/archives/2015/08/youth_lagoon_sh_1.html|website=Brooklyn Vegan|accessdate=10 August 2015}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.metacritic.com/music/savage-hills-ballroom/youth-lagoon/critic-reviews |title=Critic Reviews for Savage Hills Ballroom |publisher=Metacritic |date= |accessdate=2015-11-20}} 5. ^{{cite web|author=James Christopher Monger |url=http://www.allmusic.com/album/savage-hills-ballroom-mw0002856020 |title=Savage Hills Ballroom - Youth Lagoon | Songs, Reviews, Credits |publisher=AllMusic |date=2015-09-25 |accessdate=2015-11-20}} 6. ^{{cite web|last=Henry |first=Dusty |url=http://consequenceofsound.net/2015/09/album-review-youth-lagoon-savage-hills-ballroom/ |title=Youth Lagoon – Savage Hills Ballroom | Album Reviews |publisher=Consequence of Sound |date=2015-09-21 |accessdate=2015-11-20}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://diymag.com/2015/09/25/youth-lagoon-savage-hills-ballroom-album-review |title=Youth Lagoon - Savage Hills Ballroom | DIY |publisher=Diymag.com |date=2015-09-25 |accessdate=2015-11-20}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=https://nowtoronto.com/music/album-reviews/youth-lagoon/|title=Youth Lagoon - Savage Hills Ballroom|publisher=Nowtoronto.com|last=Edwards|first=Samantha|date=2015-09-16|accessdate=2015-11-21}} 9. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/21047-savage-hills-ballroom/ |title=Youth Lagoon: Savage Hills Ballroom | Album Reviews |publisher=Pitchfork |date=2015-09-17 |accessdate=2015-11-20}} 10. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.slantmagazine.com/music/review/youth-lagoon-savage-hills-ballroom |title=Youth Lagoon: Savage Hills Ballroom | Album Review |publisher=Slant Magazine |date=2015-09-24 |accessdate=2015-11-20}} 11. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.metacritic.com/music/savage-hills-ballroom/youth-lagoon |title=Savage Hills Ballroom – Youth Lagoon |publisher=Metacritic.
