The Planet Of Sound

As announced last week, Yak are set to release their most thrilling material yet with their second EP, produced by Pulp’s Steve Mackey. The No EP will be released on November 13th via Third Man Records, and is available for pre-order now.

Today the London trio have unveiled the official video for the EP title track “No”. Directed by ex-Jesus And Mary Chain member Douglas Hart (who’s also made videos for Primal Scream, My Bloody Valentine and The Horrors), the disorientating, sense-exploding clip captures exactly why Yak are fast becoming known as the UK’s most ferociously exciting live band.

“This snarly, overdriven cut from the band’s latest 7″” wrote Noisey of  “No” upon the song’s debut on SoundCloud last week, is “bitten into with a gutter-punk fang and a growling British accents.”

Hot off the back of a lengthy tour with Peace, Yak are set to make their US live debut later this month at CMJ before embarking on their biggest headline tour of the UK to date. They will also support Jim Jones And The Righteous Mind tonight at London Oslo.
