I'm so glad I discovered this band a couple of months ago. Can't believe I didn't know about them sooner. They're easily the most exciting British band in years. Along with Radiohead and Damon Albarn they're helping me keep sane.
i hoped and prayed that this great GREAT band would come within 300 miles from my Lake Michigan area residence this summer. Its probably a good thing though cause im a 6’5” 210 in shape man that hadnt cried since my grandpa died 28 years ago…..until i discovered Wolf Alice. A band has to be SOMETHING TRULY SPECIAL to choke me up every damn day.
@@DapperZach cut his thumb playing lisbon. The video is on youtube, it's about a minute in you can see him rip his hand away from the guitar then blood starts trickling down. Played on though, what a guy.
hahahahahahaa. waste of a guitar. shit flat band no movement. try the neville brothers if you want a good band. this is karaoke, backing tracks. been to loads of gigs. this would disappoint. might aswell listen to the radio edit. flat for a live performance. no movement. forced voice been done before. just a minor hang up pmsl
It’s a much different song when played live, but I like it. The vocals don’t reach the same dramatic cathartic crescendo on the third chorus as the studio recording, but the live version feels more intense and introspective.
31 people don't understand Wolf Alice or really listen to them. One of the most brilliant bands in the 2010's. Too much good to say about them to post in this little space.
For people who say that she's not a good singer - Ellie is kinda shy and some of her performances show it, there was a big crowd and this show is one of their most important and recognizable ones, maybe she got stressed because it was that important
You guys have any idea how to get Joff's guitar tone he has in Silk? It's crystal clear while still loud, but not overdriven? Maybe a right compressor? I love it so much :)
sounds like he has some kind of modulation on it, like a harmony type effect as well as a kind of slap back delay. The loudness/clarity could also be down to the mixing of the recording and the sound engineer at glasto
come to Mexico. life is great drugs and living is cheap/ $1.50 a gram of each. plus the crystal is banging. fuck government handcuffs. methadone cost Hitler the Russian front. stops the cluck but makes you lazy and subservient. exactly how the government want you. Heroin. Yum my love. now the colombians have lent their chemists to mexico now they are concentrating purely on cocaine. so Mexican is white brick. none of that black tar, maybe off your own plants. weed. heron heaven
I think it’s about not being satisfied with your life and not knowing what is life’s purpose, but still carrying on cause that’s what you have been told to do, even if you have to take pills when you don’t want to (antidepressants for instance) etc. That’s my interpretation tho, maybe I’m wrong but that’s what is beautiful about art, maybe it means something to me and something completely different to you.
I took the song to mean self actualizing but going through some hard times in the process...life is constantly a battle, theres always various stressors to keep us growing and evolving, but some people may have a tougher mountain to climb, whether life/ trauma/ circumstances, or just some mistakes are made. But this song is a excellent synopsis of all of those factors or how the individual artist intended, etc.
Amazing song, thanks T2 trainspotting for helping me find this song. Awesome film as well!
Same 🤍
Silk is a really special song. At least to me.Please don't take this down youtube
Craig Evans : That’s why I created folders to put all my favorite videos and music in so if it disappears I can always listen to it whenever I want✌️
Silk has immense meaning but people have to watch Trainspotting to understand the lyrics.
Lok.
@@kellyjustice404 Absolutely
CZcams to MP4.
Very glad this song was put into the trainspotting 2 trailer, not sure if I ever would’ve heard of them otherwise. Great song and performance.
After much listening and analyzing I feel Silk is their deepest song.

silk is very special to me. it helped me a lot this year and listening to this made me tear up
the songs sounded soooo good played one after the other
They really need to write a song about that bloody hand.
How can I make it OK? :)

Silk is my favourite song,i can't desribe how much it means to me
I was in my first de tox when I first ever found out about this band,these lyrics reminded me how the hell lucky I am still to be alive.X
Thank you,
ditto, eight clean hard years behind me now :o)
I know this super highway, this bright familiar sun. I guess(sarcastically) that I'm the lucky one. comin off pure love
Drink the juice, feeling fine
@@lastofthemouchers8873 :-(
I came here to see Silk being played live I walked away like I saw Nirvana.
Incredible vocals from that beautiful lady, love the guitars, the great bass lines & great drumming. Wonderful band👌👌👊👊❤️

Seeing a guitarist with bleeding fingers, you know it's a real band!

I'm the 31st like lol! I've been in love with this song for years. This one and The Last Man On Earth are some of the greatest songs I've ever heard.
If i heard this live.. i wud be crying. This song speaks to me.
I'm in love with the guitar guy 😍
His names Joff and yes he's awesome!
Great performance at Glastonbury, good times
This song really touches me at a visceral level. Really both do. 💗
You can tell the crowd wasn’t there for Wolf Alice, but this is still a good performance
They weren't? Shame on them.
@@amycrunch3812 true
Can you just shut the fuck up instead of leaving dumb ass comments like this
Trainspotting 2
this song makes me cry like a baby
For people who say that she's not a good singer - Ellie is kinda shy and some of her performances show it, there was a big crowd and this show is one of their most important and recognizable ones, maybe she got stressed because it was that important
Well, they can all eat their criticism now. She’s on top of her game in 2021. She’s a vocal powerhouse.
Reading 2015 was an amazing show also.
She seems pretty much right on to me, you can tell these people are really into playing live, it's awesome. Best band in years.
How i love this band!!!
Why do I never saw this version of the song??? It sounds soo great. espacially the guitar. And she looks so beautiful
Love this song and this is a great version of it.
Ah I was there. Awesome set
thx bbc...wonderwhy I love the track especially heading to work ..makes me .....
Tommy Wiseau on the drums!
Looking good Ellie

Absolutely superb 👌
Love this song, great band

Left hand of blood......the sacrifice for music. 0:23
This is greatness
You know, it's crazy to think it's already been 7 years since 2016... 🥲
What a band 🎸☠️👍❤️😎🍻
It's just really a masterpiece. Heartbreaker 😢

素晴らしい👍👍👍まさにブリティッシュロックの正統を感じるサウンドとヴォーカル💖💖💖最高です♪

Little Elle is so gorgeous it’s she, I love watching these kids rock out...
Y pa cuando en México!!! I hope enjoy your song's in my country!!!
"It's such a shame, she used to be so delightful."
HiHo44 well who's fault is that if it wasn't mum and dads
well it must be yours
We have none of that
And how is she now??
@@campbellrocksagain Well your Alive and i'm still here.
That bass tone is fucking nasty.
"Your bleeding man" i aint got time to bleed
We’re so cool
Jesus she’s beautiful. Holy Christ. And I’m an atheist.
50 seconds. Ellie playing beautifully....

jewp castle sorry, I have no idea but I'm going to pin your comment so people can see it and help you :-)
sounds like he has some kind of modulation on it, like a harmony type effect as well as a kind of slap back delay. The loudness/clarity could also be down to the mixing of the recording and the sound engineer at glasto
he did a gear rundown with premier guitar-it's a pog :)
Reminds me of Nirvana. The Fender Jaguar is a unique sounding guitar.
drinkrealale too right , love jags
Silk .Awesome .
It takes my feelings apart😯
Masterpiece
His hand... love.
anyone else watch this everyday
Is guitar player bleeding on his hand?

Is he bleeding from playing?

Help me guys. What’s this song about? Drugs? Addiction?

I may have to call you back.
yet another wolf alice song seemingly written within minutes of f5 at their doorstep.
I wish Ellie was my girlfriend
Epic . End
Don’t leave here thinking for myself
Keep on keeping on:)
Punks not dead😯
Don't do drugs. Pour your pain into something to help those you love.
@ 2:09 is he bleeding??? :/
Rivi♥
Too big a band to be playing anymore daylight Glasto sets from now on ?
Omg is his hand bleeding
anyone else think the background guitar ambience of silk is in the wrong key for wonderwhy and makes it sound not great?
