Yung – “Uncombed Hair”

Yung – “Uncombed Hair”

We named Yung a Band To Watch and Best New Band in 2015 based on the intensity of their EP These Thoughts Are Like Mandatory Chores, and in June the Danish band will follow it up with a debut LP. We heard A Youthful Dream’s lead single “Pills” back in February and today Yung shared “Uncombed Hair.” The song is an ode to one of Mikkel Holm Silkjær’s friends, and he told NPR the following about its lyrical content:

I literally wrote “Uncombed Hair” in ten minutes and recorded the song about an hour after that. Which is a big contrast to the more permanent themes that the song addresses – It relates to death and depression, which was something that was a significantly big part of one of my dear friend’s life when I wrote the song and couldn’t help but inform my music. So this one is dedicated to bad things and good people.

Listen below.

A Youthful Dream is out 6/10 via Fat Possum.
