In a world where media overexposure is the norm, WU LYF are a truly refreshing proposition. A word of mouth sensation, they’ve spent the past 18 months quietly cultivating their mystique: playing secret gigs, refusing interviews and communing online with their fan base (the Lucifer Youth Foundation) in strange, phonetic English. Finally, now anticipation for their debut’s reached fever pitch, the time has arrived for the Manchester-based quartet to show their hand. And Go Tell Fire to the Mountain is everything we’d hoped – a tour de force of melancholic “heavy pop”, hewn from chiming guitars, shifting rhythms, atmospheric church organ and Ellery Roberts’ indecipherable, “been gargling with gravel” growl.
