Young Fathers are proof that even in this day and age, with all the music that's been made so far, it's still possible to produce something unique. People say it's hard to be original now, but they just lack creativity. Outstanding in every sense!

its not hard to be original in the sense they just want to copy. its hard because companies want whats proven to work. so its hard to try to produce something new and get the backing and distribution for it.

Masterpiece, I can play this song over and over again and it always gives me goosebumps🖤

this is probably one of the best songs i have heard in a long time

I have yet to hear a bad tune from these boys

More on the video from director Jack Whiteley: "I started with the question: how do you make people care about your video? In the age of the internet anything seems to go. Videos can be controversial and shocking or just purely bizarre or beautiful, and they don’t necessarily have to make sense. So, in collaboration with the band, I came up with a set of vignettes that attempts to tick these boxes in order to elicit an emotional response from the viewer. "We then threw in an added meta curveball layer by deconstructing what you’re seeing within the video itself, to the point where we’re essentially presenting a step-by-step guide on how to make a video that people will care about and therefore will want to share online. "I love videos that challenge perceptions, pull the rug from under the viewer, offer twists and subvert things, and so that’s what we’ve reached for here. I hope you care about it. And if you do, don’t forget to share. Because sharing is caring." (via Promonews)

Afrobeat, hip hop, garage, punk edge. Gold!

It’s been about 5 years since falling in love with their music in Trainspotting 2. Still not tired of their music & elelated to hear the new single Geronimo ❤️‍🔥

Young fathers is the soundtrack to my life.

I can’t deal with this goodness, so cultic and beautiful.
