The glorious Young Knives release their blistering new single ‘The Decision’ on 30th October.
Including (quite possibly) the greatest opening to any video ever and some of the greatest lyrics you’re likely to hear this year (key line -”I am the Prince of Wales / And if all else fails / I am the Prince of Wales…”), ‘The Decision’ is yet another slice of rural splendor from Oxfordshire’s finest.
It’s certainly been an outstanding year for The Young Knives. Their debut album ‘Voices of animals and men’ debuted in the uk charts at number 21, last single ‘Hot Summer’ hit the uk top 40 once again and they triumphed with their live shows at numerous uk and European festivals, highlights including this years V festival where they played to a packed out tent of over 3,000 people spilling out the sides, and more recently in the sun on the main stage at Bestival, a truly memorable affair. In addition the Knives were last week crowned as 6 Music’s festival band of the year by listeners.
Our tweed clad heroes saw their anthemic summer release, ‘Weekends and Bleak Days (Hot Summer)’ become daytime play listed on XFM, MTV2 and Radio 1, reinstating their impact on 2006. With a massive array of amazing press on their debut album under their belt, the band who recently appeared on Channel 4’s Transmission and the Channel 4 breakfast show, are fast getting a reputation as one of the best and most entertaining live acts in the country.
