No band ever has, or ever will, hit my soul like Gang Of Youths does

[daybroken]

I'm an old man, lived and danced through shoegazing, madchester, britpop and everything thereafter. I've not been this excited about a new album in a very long time! Can't wait for Angel in real time!

[nkululekoduma]

So as you canyoneered from our world upwards
And the angels took their place
I was the loser at your funeral
No emotion conveyed
It was drawn out in vain
And the idiot I am just figured
In the wake of your leave
That I'd never hear from you again

And that I'd sing
With all this feeling
That your spirit would afford me

My hand
On heart
It's not a thing that I've been dreaming of
And it goes without my blessing
And leaves me in a rut
But it comes and goes
And shows me all I'm missing
And it comes and goes

I was there at the backstage trying
But the words they never came
And I was available for a statement but I just
Hung my head in shame

It felt nothing to me
All the ceremony I'd wasted
And then I'd thank them leave
And say "God bless you all, goodnight"

Then I'd think
The grave was turning
And that nothing could absolve me

My hand
On heart
It's not a thing that I've been dreaming of
And it throws me without warning
And leaves me in the dust
But it comes and goes
And fills me when I'm empty
Then it comes and goes
And I will need it when it's gone

It quakes
And moves
Then breaks
Then shatters over me
In shapes of all these
Quiet sacred things I need

My hand on heart
If there's a line or something in these songs
That are worthy of some mention
You're free to let me know
But it comes and grows
And leaves me in my weakness
And it comes and goes

My hand
On heart
It's not a thing that I've been dreaming of
And it goes without my blessing
And leaves me in a rut
But it comes and goes
And holds me when I'm sleepless
Then it comes and shows
How I need you when you're gone

This is the reason I have hope. These songs just have the most beautiful sound, meaning and everything and I cannot express enough how excited I am for this album and to see you August 3rd

[Karaoke]

I literally can't wait for angel in real time. Can someone of the band send me an email with all the songs so I can take a quick listen? I promise that I won't share haha

[fedepa]

So beautiful. I have to say, your music has been such a constant for me this past year through a lot of weird new stuff. Made me feel less alone and reminded me to always embrace my humanity. I hope you guys know how much this means to a lot of people. Please never stop making music or I won't know what to do with my heart. A lot of love from Italy <3

[hollyrudart]

Your lyrical stories have invoked thoughts and emotions in me that have been in hibernation for far too long. I appreciate your music and your message. Your unplugged performance of of “still unbeaten life”is exquisite. Thank you . Cannot wait to see you on May 12 2022

[XxDavedjxX]

I've been a fan since 2015. I had anxiously awaited Go Farther in Lightness and was not disappointed! I cannot wait for this new album. These albums always find me in transformative parts of my life, and I really appreciate them. Keep it coming, guys!

[WebbTunes]

Haven't been this excited for an album in quite some time... every single is so wonderful and so distinct!

[matthewcummins]

Wow guys, your music makes me feel some things! Currently going through the most difficult period in my life, Gang of youths have always made me feel less alone, and more hopeful, this album is coming just at the right time. As always this song is truly beautiful. Can't wait to see you in March at Brixton Academy!

[meridianprime]

Oh, you are knocking each of these singles out of the park. Those strings just take me away, the groove is phenomenal, and then when the chorus hits.... This album is going to be amazing.

[logan]

Gang of Youths relentless as always with incredible music. This album is going to be fucking amazing 😭

[preplife]

Already obsessed with this. May can’t come quick enough

[Pocklock]

Love it! Already knew I would, but it’s so great to finally hear it. Another great track from Angel in real-time!
Can’t wait to hear this in Newcastle in March!

[Murph]

As a brand new fan after seeing you guys on the Colbert show. I am so excited for this first new release to me! You guys have been in heavy rotation thank you.

[trinity]

So refreshing to hear unbeat songs that sound so FRESH. I'm so relieved by the singles released so far. Definitely worth the wait!

[LaurensChannel]

Your music never fails to lift my mood. I cannot describe how refreshing it is. It’s completely unlike any other music in its genre, but yet so oddly familiar and heart warming. So beautiful. Thank you for your gift 🙏🏻 I have Angel in realtime on pre-order and I’m so excited!! 💙

[jinx]

Listening to you guys is my happy place, thank you ✌😂😂

[blind]

What an incredible EP, I can't wait to see you guys live. Man, this last year has been rough, thank you for all you do.

[seanrodman]

This is my favorite band, by far, to sing along with. AT LONG LAST a lead singer that sings in my same vocal range.
