Danish thrillseekers Yung embrace everything on new ‘Don’t Cry’ track

There’s an undying exuberance to ‘Don’t Cry’, the latest track from hyped-up Danish punks Yung, who release their debut EP ‘Alter’ on Tough Love Records, 2nd March.

Schooled in a post punk embrace, ‘Don’t Cry’ shifts its way through countless structures and transitions, but one thing always remains: A don’t-give-a-fuck, arms-aloft embracing of life and all its see-saw surprises.

It’s led by frontman Mikkel Holm Silkjær, whose vocals - always shrouded in a sea of effects - pierce through just about any surface when it’s time to deliver a message. There’s a reason these four have picked up so much attention back home. Next step? A debut UK gig at London’s The Old Blue Last, 2nd March. Tickets are available now via DICE.

Saw-toothed and soaring, listen to Yung’s ‘Don’t Cry’ track below, as premiered on DIY.
