We're honoured to present the debut single from Hayden Thorpe, Diviner. Watch the beautiful video, directed by Crowns & Owls, now: smarturl.it/DivinerYT
I just wish they realise how gifted they are. Whenever I listen to their music, it feels like the very first time. Still can't accept that they're gone.
This is one of the few bands where you just have to listen till the end of the song just to know what they'll do with it. With Wild Beasts Songs you never know after the first minute how the rest of the song is going to be like. Love it.
best band/album of the decade. Wild Beasts are one of the few bands that makes art music without being pompous or even complex. Dramatic, poetic, sensual, urgent, emotional, making beautiful things with ugly subjects. and, fuck, they're just a 4-piece guitar band!
Heard this track in the wash room at Five Guys on 12th of November 2019. With hands still damp after washing, I quickly took out my phone and used Google to find the song. Though I'm a bit late to discovery, I never would have guessed this song came out in 2009.
what a beautiful song! :) iv never been good at writing my own music, but this is one of those kinds that makes me wanna get up and write something GREAT
Well, Ive loved this band since they were first born and I first heard them speak over 20 years ago. I'm even listening to the tracks from the album AFTER the new one... and let me just say that they're even better. Right, gotta meet them down the pub...
I was surprised you thought so, I was there and I thought they were incredible. Sure the lighting wasn't spectacular but I thought they did a really incredible job of playing the material with incredible intensity and finesse. I love Chris Talbot's understated style of drumming but I guess that's just your opinion. Also the sub-bass in End Come Too Soon was beautiful and surreal. And just watching Tom Fleming doing the falsetto part at the start of All the Kings Men was incredible.
stunning and beautiful video! really would like to see the making of this music video! and of course the song is amazing too, i'm glad that i discovered Wild Beasts' music! hooked on them now! X)
Carry me hooting and howling to the river to wash off my hands of the hot blood, the sweat and the sand Any rival who goes for our girls will be left thumb sucking in terror and bereft of all coffin bearers A crude art, a bovver boot ballet - equally elegant and ugly I was as thrilled as I was appalled, courting him in fisticuffing waltz. Now I'm not saying the lads always deserve a braying. And I'm not saying the girls are worth the fines I'm paying. We're just brutes bored in our bovver boots. We're just brutes clowning 'round in cahoots. We're just brutes looking for shops to loot. We're just brutes hoping to have a hoot Hooting, hooting and howling
i dont care about your negative comments on this song.... its amazing! his voice is like no other... they sang this song like nothing i've ever heard....
I love their sound, always. The lyrics are completely abstract to me, but it simply doesn't matter. The sound of words is more important than the meaning here, I think.
lol... I heard assembly and bought both of their albums and their eps... There is only 2 songs that I don't like. That's amazing. Love these guys... WISH THEY'D COME TO AMERICA... DALLAS!!!!

Siu-wan CHAN I hope they come back. Very original with sophistication
2024... still in love

I likes the video so much ❤
I just heard this song in 2020 and I am so obsessed! How could I have been living under a rock in 2009??
Lulu Rios They were definitely amazing and even better live to hear all these wonderful sounds
Found this in 2022 and it’s crazy
best band of the year without question!
such an original sounding indie band, you don't find that much these days, love em'
Wild Beasts are amazing, and my current obsession. They're not like anything else out on the scene, and I applaud them.
Maybe the best british band of 2010's
Completely ignored within the UK too
best band/album of the decade.

HOODIN' & HANGIN'!!
Someone in South Gate, California loves this.
Bump.🤘
We need another WB album, more more more!

Did you wash your hands of the hot blood, the sweat and the sand?
@@hayung Yes and they are now equally elegant and ugly
@@MaryamWakili Sounds like a hoot
@@hayung But I ended up howling
@@MaryamWakili Ya beast.
what a beautiful song! :) iv never been good at writing my own music, but this is one of those kinds that makes me wanna get up and write something GREAT
Hayden Thorpe, you absolute beast. Wild Beast that is.
First Wild Beasts song I ever heard. It's been true love ever since.
Simply superb. I'm a 30 something indie kid at heart - some good new music around and this band is currently at the top of my list.
This song is amazing, I can't stop listening to the new album all the songs are perfect!
I agree. Wild Beast is easily the best band of the year.
This song is incredible. When I saw them on the review show, I was completely blown away.
Probably my favourite album to date by the Wild Beasts. An amazing song..
2016 and I´m still here. Older.
bitch you old
Abdellah Ibrahim 2018 dude get on my level
2019 and I'm still here too...
Still here in 2021
I've been listening to Wild Beasts for 2 weeks and today the bomb went off...
I know for sure now, I love these guys!
Weird, I kept saying this album is like being in water to me, now just checked out the video. Love it.
this is just so beautiful

underwater love, braw song.
YOU GUYS ARE OUT THERE XXX
The most underrated band in history...
this is a proper song with a an equally proper video. god i love music
Just saw these guys at London Field Day, on acid, at first I was almost convinced I was watching the late K. D. Lang. What a tune
dude that acid was stronger than you thought K D LANG lives!!
Wild Beasts will rule! I swear! Cheerio chaps!
Quelle élégante mélodie. Beaucoup de raffinement et c' est vraiment très agréable d' entendre cette Musique. Quel talent 🌹🌹🌹✌🏻

i've always had a thing for music videos that occur underwater. love. love. love.
i love this song!
can't stop listening!
Saw them LIVE! Best night of my life! Wild Beasts Rock harder than Juice Box's!
I swear I've contributed to at least 9,000 of these views.
wiow this video actually makes me happy that my new PC can play HD videos swimmingly (no pun intended), its freaking amazing! lol
Good to see the views rising!! Can't wait for the 3rd CD!!!
what an amazingly talented group!
LIVE! Best concert EVER!
What a voice. Just beautiful.
uploaded on my birthday, sweet. love this song
Such a simple concept for a video, yet it's my favourite. Who needs special effects when simple physics will do?
stunning and beautiful video! really would like to see the making of this music video! and of course the song is amazing too, i'm glad that i discovered Wild Beasts' music! hooked on them now! X)
Like this a lot, a real grower, going to check more of their stuff, thats for sure.
Carry me hooting and howling
to the river to wash off my hands
of the hot blood, the sweat and the sand
Any rival who goes for our girls will be left thumb sucking in terror
and bereft of all coffin bearers

I love unique vocals. Who wants to sing like everyone else?
Wow, I just love the singer's voice!
this is such a good idea for a video
I love their sound, always. The lyrics are completely abstract to me, but it simply doesn't matter. The sound of words is more important than the meaning here, I think.

They're playing at my uni in November, probably going to see them
I remember the first time I heard this was in Skins (U.K.)
I have seen a performance called Melt danced by Phoenix Dance Theatre with the music of WB.
Simply marvellous, a must see!
