Young Fathers preview new LP with ‘Shame’ single
Taken from ‘White Men Are Black Men Too’, hear the Edinburgh trio bounce off the walls.
Mercury Prize-winning Scottish trio Young Fathers have unveiled ‘Shame’, a new track from their forthcoming ‘White Men Are Black Men Too’ LP.
A giddy purification of the trio’s pop intent, the new song links up with ‘Rain or Shine’ in previewing the record. Some parts were recorded in an Australia rehearsal space - finishing touches were added in Berlin. Throughout, you can hear Graham ‘G’ Hastings and co. bouncing off the walls, bringing positive highs to harsh truths.
‘White Men Are Black Men Too’ is out 6th April on Big Dada. Pre-order here.
