She applies overtone singing techniques which enables her to actually sing a second tone to her main line. The surely surfacing inner turmoil (the shifting between pleasant and disturbing) constantly meets goosebumps - something no other singer has ever achieved; I dearly god her.
@@anfearaerach Well, call it what you like. Sean nos is a rather broad term. One element of sean nos is definitely the control and manipulation of overtones (through tongue movement and control of the resonances inside the mouth).
Yep, it's definitely on stage. I've seen a hurdy gurdy on other live footage of Lankum too. First time I saw one played was by Jem Finer of The Pogues back in 1988 or 1989.
Ah well I think they knew they were going to lose ..this style this genre is not popular and people just want ... easy cheap stuff ..but this TRULY won ..because its the best.
The starkly minimalist instrumentalism contrasts beautifully with the pitch-perfect vocals. Gorgeous. Love how the yipping and "g'wan" of the crowd is so swiftly silenced by the terrible beauty of the song.
For me hearing this on British TV the same week the British government decided to introduce legislation from prosecuting British soldiers of war crimes in the north of Ireland made the presence of Lankum feel so heavy. They should have won this. They love our music, our culture, claim our stars their own but when it comes to us they treat us as filth.
I think that's a fair call. As an Irish Catholic from the North, I've worked more or less my whole life with English people... Great people, and made many friends. You're right... not one of them understand why they have a presence or footprint in Ireland. And they certainly don't like paying for it. Ive been on the end of the usual Mick jibe too, but that's nothing to be worried about tbh. We've more in common with the average Joe in Manchester, than we all admit... given family and historical ties. My main complaint is that you seem unable or very passive about who runs the UK... because they are running it into the ground. And you're not doing anything about it.
Incredible voice and sound. There is a lot of overlap in the lyrics and melody with another traditional song 'The Butcher's Boy', recorded by Natalie Merchant a few years ago.
Such pride, love, heartache and unrelenting punk-trad vibes. I cannot fully explain what Lankum does to me as an Irish person. I can only say it awakens the bones of my ancestors who used to be King's and Queen's of Ireland (I am a direct descendent, clan Mac Giolla Phádraig, Kingdom of Osraige/Leinster/Ireland). Síocháin a deartháireacha agus deirfiúracha. I love our people and it has always been our Island. Thank you Lankum, you are forever in my heart. Big love to all X
@@gavinw3277in Ireland, royalty wasn’t the same as it was in the UK. Everybody was a member of a clann, a tribe, a kingdom or another community structure and hence everybody is descended from what would in other European nations be described as royalty. The pre-colonial societal structure was such that you could be born to a chieftain and throughout your life have experience of being a chieftain yourself, a slave, a farmer, a beekeeper, a judge, back to being a slave, back to being a chieftain and a myriad of other things before you died. The society was hierarchical but it wasn’t prescriptive. You didn’t have to be related to a chieftain to be of his clann. I know that difficult to comprehend when compared with the very strict hierarchies of later systems… but it worked, it was the longest lived legal system humanity has ever known. It’s structures meant that all would-be invaders ended up just joining in the fun, it’s why the only way the English could conquer Ireland was to do away with the system all together.
@@anfearaerachthe OP isn’t claiming to be descended from a specific individual. By now, we all share at least one common ancestor about 400 years ago, at least one but certainly several others.
All of that being said, I think the idea of obsessing over what or who we’re directly descended from is a bit post-colonial… it doesn’t really matter. If you’re Irish then you’re Irish. Real Irish people don’t ask for credentials.

Jesus, her pitch is just spot on, not to even mention her tone. I need to listen to more Lankum
no video does her voice justice imo, it sounds absolutely incredible live and gets under your skin in an almost violent way
Radie's voice is from the otherworld
I heard someone describe this as “Doom Folk” and it couldn’t be more perfect
This is how they describe their music themselves.
"Having a nice evening you folks ? alright, let's break the mood a little then."

It's unreal. It has a heavy rock feel like Sabbath's "War Pigs" but, like you say without the usual mix of instruments etc.
This is based on a trad Irish She Moved through the Fair.
It's the lack of light and the cloths and makeup 💄

I can't believe they didn't win

Deserved to win it.

Saw these guys live for the first time this year. No recording does this song justice. Goosebumps.
for me the winners

It's sean nós, traditional Irish singing.

That ending though!!!
Never saw it coming
Radie your still the goddess of my soul
Just amazing. Should have won
The foot stomp being miced up is awesome.
Everytime I hear their music it puts me in a trance
F***ing love this band
This is perfect. In every way.
F*ckin hell lads, absolutely savage stuff
Deadly.
My head and feet 💚💚💚
Fookin awesome. My God, this is so good!!
Thought it was a hurdy gurdy in the official video mix! Great to see what I think is one on stage. Breathtaking.

I'm not even drunk yet but Lankum put me in the zone.
chomh milis le mil agus chomh garbh le gaineamh - iontach lads!
Wunderschön ❤. Greetings from Germany
belle découverte Bravo au groupe
They should have won :(

incredible
Fucking love this band
as the guardian said, more like an ''exorcism'',
This is just so just hauntingly beautiful

Brilliant
drone at its best!
Spine-chilling! A perfectly-judged slow burn that delivers to the very end.
Best thing I’ve heard since the pogues version of the parting glass,hozier ai gong shrike or Luke jelly raglan road
Absolutely unreal!!!
Radie's vouce is perfect.
Where’s the other five minutes 😢
Magnífico!

Holy shit!
Sublime.
Intense, Immense
Great music from the isles that surround us !

She is singing the Dublin Sean Nós style. ... the regional one not the national one ..its amazing.
