    SUPER LIMITED 'CRYSTAL BLUE' VINYL OF OUR ALBUM BARBARIANS!

    Thanks to everyone being the best, we sold out of vinyl and have repressed in this awesome "Crystal Blue Caraçao" vinyl just in time for Band camp Friday. Only 200 in stock.

    Young Knives release the their fifth album, Barbarians. The album was written, recorded and mixed by Young Knives (brothers Henry Dartnall and The House of Lords) in their studio near Oxford, UK. John Gray’s book Straw Dogs inspired the brothers to dial into the ultra-violent, brutal nature of human beings. Our progresses in science and knowledge have not made us any less barbaric: our entertainment is obsessed with it, our world is full of it. What if cruelty to others is just part of who we are? How do we live with that?

    Building on a base of loved hits from their early work last decade (Voices of Animals and Men, Superabundance, Ornaments from the Silver Arcade) and the metamorphosis of 2013’s Sick Octave, Barbarians is a leap into sonic experimentation by a band who love to confuse and entertain in equal measure.

    Includes unlimited streaming of Barbarians via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.
