Young Effectuals is the second release from the Portland-based band The Helio Sequence.

It was released on October 9, 2001, by Cavity Search Records.

It is less pop-oriented than their later albums, and it features longer songs densely layered with synthesizers.

In his review of the album for AllMusic, Richie Unterberger says the Helio Sequence combine "dense electric textures in which the voice is just another hazy element with atmospheric keyboards, guitar, and electronic effects", but that the songs eventually blur "together into similar overall moods as the disc progresses.
