Yak - Alas Salvation

2016 release. Just over a year since their first single was released - a period that saw their unpredictable gigs and electrifying clutch of studio recordings earn them a reputation as the most exciting and talked about new act in the UK - Yak have channeled their ferocious live experience into their 2016 debut album Alas Salvation. Recorded with Pulp's Steve Mackey, it's a wired and ambitious record that refuses to be pigeonholed. Yet beneath all the head-spinning chaos lies a beating heart of great melodies and a hyperactively eclectic and inventive approach to making music.
