I'm so glad I stumbled upon this band. What's the guys name who's singing? He's got too much sex appeal... can't believe I said that, but it's so true. Hotness!
Have the bassist and guitarist/ singer changed places? Looks like Fleming was on guitar before, and now he's on bass, and the bassist is now on rhythm. Regardless, both can still give an outstanding vocal.
@dannysmith15 well ofcouse not to you :i ... your a guy :)unless your gay but if you were gay you would agree with mee.. i guess it depends on the person :\
It's weird and kinda funny the feeling of going so high then so low in your voice, so i understand the face of the singer when he goes "HATCH ME HATCH ME, a girl before..."
these are fucking awsome. i take it for granted that ive seen them twice but was so drunk to appreciate them. i hope they come back to Bristol again soon
@layzyeye Yup he's a belter - on this vid' he has a sort of disembodied concentration, as if it's up to the rest of them to keep up with him. He roots the whole thing, and they can 'twiddle' around his nexus. Super.
Wild beasts are, definitely, on my top 5 of the year. And on stage they are even more amazing than on cd. Those guys are the definition of what music can give to you. I'm a fan.
@Orangecube23 I think the lead singer looks goood now he's shaved his hair off and grown some stubble. I and they are singing about women .... women from Shipley .... women from Hownslow ..... women from Whitby. Mmmmm ..... all deeply sexual places!
Scottinbristol if you think the bands you mentioned are 100% original you maybe need to do more research into the music that influenced those (great) bands. Agree that wild beasts offer something fresh and there's certainly little around at the moment that's comparable in style to their overall sound. Agree that the vocal has similarities to tom from editors though
@scottinbristol hmm no, definitely not a brand new anything but they have an adventurous, ethereal sound and they are pushing in an unusual direction so i really can't see why you would call them primark or poundshop- it doesn't sound cheap and you don't get it absolutely everywhere. but whatever man, that's my little opinion. these comment discussions are so futile!
@JJ62 here you go you old fruit..... PIL, the fall, teardrop explodes, animal collective, the smiths. ps try and chill out, what are they, your sons or something?
@JJ62 I totally agree with you. All artists have been influenced by artists before them who have been influenced by artists before them. What is important is how they manipulate and originate those influences into tangible forms of creative art. The Wild Beasts do this ever so brilliantly! As we can see from their two albums!
When I'm on youtube I rarely watch music videos but I just had to watch this all the way though,they're are beautiful when they're singing, their facial expressions,the concentration on their faces,I mean study the drummer,he so into it,it's lovely :)
so much talent
