I realise your comment was 4 years ago, but I've just seen Young Father's play Toy live at the Green Man festival in Wales (UK) 2 weeks ago. I'm obsessed with them since! Their show went off!! I loved the way too that they delayed the drop at the end of the track by about 40 seconds... Goosebumps!
OMG, they're electric live! Seen them once, have been hooked ever since. It's a musical experience like no other. Wish these boys all the best, they deserve to be recognized.
9:10 In the early 2000`s I lived in a small Ukrainian town, where we didn't have big (or good) record stores. We just had tiny shops with audio cassets showcased on the wall behind the shop assistant. And we didn't have any source of knowledge about new music, like magazines or websites. So to buy a good music one had to ask shop assistant for help or just try one by one, which was hardly possiible since it was only one record player to use and there was usually a line of other buyers behind. It forced me to develope an intuitive method of picking cassets to buy: I looked at the covers and tried to imagine what would music be like. I remember when I saw a cassette with some black contrasty insect on white backround and right away figured out the music is going to be awesome. I asked the shop assistant to play the cassete just for a few seconds of the first track. It was Massive Attack's "Angel", and it was love from the first note.
@@vicgermain4179 Probably the only band I know of where their live stuff is superior to the studio! The energy when they play live just can't be replicated in the studio :)
Yep, every time i land on a KEXP video it's also my first reaction. And they adapt to the vastly varied styles so good. Would love to see an interview of them too :D
This was fucking phenomenal. One of the best performances I've seen on KEXP so far. Heard you guys for the first time on Voodoo in My Blood with Massive Attack and really digged it, but now I'm sold. Can't wait to jump into your discography, much love
Too good for words. Best live band on the planet. Need ‘Nest’ on the setlists And War, Turn, Dip, 27, See How, Hangman, Only Child, Way down in the hole, Cocoa sugar..........
Incredible artists. Was lucky to see them in SF back in November. Great job on the sound KEXP. Give the sound engineer a raise. I also liked the kid’s questions and chat about the importance of the overall impact of an album.
As a person with next to no understanding of electronic music if anyone can explain how 4 men with a couple of drums and some kit can create such a glorious cacophony that would be actually really helpful for my career as a theatre director who works with musicians
I can't speak for them, but I found having limited equipment with a good imagination and ingenuity works. When your choices are limited, you make the best of what youv'e got. Of course each member of the group has differet talents and influences, so that is gonna all go into the whole. As far as getting the "cacophony"... I think its layering, harmonys, dis-cordanance and knowing how to build it up until it just GOES OFF!!!...
I was so hoping you'd bring them back again and here it is, just not long after seeing them play at the the 02 Acadmey in Bristol (UK, for anyone overseas). There's a comraderie with YF fans I rarely see, and it's a sight to behold. Everyone lost it when they played "Toy" and "Get Up". The whole room was just a tidal wave of electrified, stimulated bodies. Barely a dry eye in the house when they finished playing "In My View" too. The moment of that opening line "...with my belly in the water..." being sung, it really hits in the feels. Every song I wanted to hear from them (bar "Nest" sadly), they played. Loved all of it. It's really unlike anything else. Even the way they perform and work the stage is so uniquely them.
It's so amazing to see the whole process of making these songs live! I mean it's even more interesting when you see who sings what and what instruments are used! it's chaotic but in a very good way!
Heard Young Fathers live today playing before Florence and the Machine went on stage. MINDBLOINGLY great performance! Never heard them before. Just fantastic like this recording thanks for great music :)
I'm generally not a hip hop person, but young fathers manage to mix so much interesting sounds together, some prominent ones I can hear include traditional African music, religious chants, Avant Garde noise pop, and these sounds are so well combined, and adding the refreshing and thought provoking lyrics. It all makes a killer band.
Одно из лучших живых выступлений из тех что я когда-либо видел. Сносящий напрочь драйв. Был бы где-нибудь рядом концерт, поехал бы без раздумий.Альбом надо было записывать живьем, студийная запись звучит как-то совершенно ровно, беззубо и невыразительно.
@@kevincardle5587 Saw them on the Saturday at the O2 Glasgow. Superb show. I jumped around and danced my arse off from start to finish. Best gig I've seen in years.
I love how the drummer dude moves
Smooth as hell.
Ol' long sticks
Toy is an absolute monster live.
See it on the Jools /holland thing. it's immense.
I hate that I heard it on a commercial. I love it for them but hate that.
IT ISSSSS. wooooooowwwww

I've never seen anyone play the drums in such a sensuous way.
Check out The Pocket Queen right here on UA-cam. She's as sensual as it comes while playing drums.
Check out Short Paris ;)

Best band on the planet at the moment
For real. So underrepresented.
I’d love to see them and Sault tour together.
OMG, they're electric live! Seen them once, have been hooked ever since. It's a musical experience like no other. Wish these boys all the best, they deserve to be recognized.
Do you know any tour dates in USA? Their IG doesn't tell much about it.
I'm so jealous of you! For real!
Atticus is right, Young Fathers are really one of the best live bands in the world. I've seen five of their shows and I still need more.
one of the best performances on KEXP ever
they have everything about music down. I feel like they’ll go down as one of the best musical groups of all time.

This is incredible! KEXP has the best sound engineers on the planet by the way, holy crap guys, seriously
Absolute pride of Leith these boys. Them and Idles deserve far far far more praise
3 years later, still true!
I couldn't click faster! One of the best musical acts out there right now

One of the best live acts i have ever seen, and just one of my favourite groups in general. Hoping they release a new album soon.
good news bud
Out today buddy!!!
Out today and its amazing

Wow!!! Great job by the sound engineers as well !
Tony 99 I said wowwwwww
KEXP has the best sound engineers. They are the unsung heros of this channel

The mixing is fucking perfect. Great job KEXP
I haven’t seen, heard, liked something like that for years: Wow.
2 mins into the video and I’m already in a trance. Who are these guys and where have they been all my life?
This was fucking phenomenal. One of the best performances I've seen on KEXP so far. Heard you guys for the first time on Voodoo in My Blood with Massive Attack and really digged it, but now I'm sold. Can't wait to jump into your discography, much love
I love how their expressions and how they feel it!!
Such wonderful noise. I feel like this is what decades of pop and rock music were leading up to.
Too good for words.
Best live band on the planet.
Need ‘Nest’ on the setlists
And War, Turn, Dip, 27, See How, Hangman, Only Child, Way down in the hole, Cocoa sugar..........
Definitely need "Nest" played live more. Such an underrated tune in their catalogue. Needs a bit more love.
Nest and 27 are my favourite
One of the greatest live acts I've ever seen. So glad I got to book them for a show in Barcelona back in 2014.
saw this band this month in Ireland they blew me away unreal live - come back to Ireland please

I truly love you!! Young Fathers are truly the best artists!!!! 완존사랑햐!!!!!!!
I listen to your songs and feel my soul.
Holy mother land this is the good stuff
