The new Gang Of Youths EP also contains past single ‘the angel of 8th ave.’ and a cover of Elbow‘s Asleep In The Back.
Gang Of Youths have shared a video for ‘unison’ after giving a release to their ‘total serene’ EP.
“‘unison’ is a deeply important track for us that really signals where the music is headed on the new record,” David Le’aupepe explains. “I conceived the song in Samoa, my ancestral homeland.”
“Here we sample and introduce the work of David Fanshawe, who travelled to the Pacific Islands in the 1980s and recorded the most extensive library of indigenous Pacific music anywhere in the world.”
The band have some UK headline gigs booked for the coming weeks, and will be at the All Points East and Neighbourhood Weekender festivals.
