Do you know this band? If you don't, below there is a really short resume about them.

Wild Beasts is a british band that plays indie rock/dream pop music. One of the singers, Hayden Thorpe has a countertenor voice that really adds mysticism and beauty to their melodies, which are already pretty beautiful.
So far they have released two albums: Limbo, Panto and Two Dancers. Their third album, Smother, is due for release on 9th May, 2011. I can't wait to listen to it, I have read a review that was quite positive about it.

To the lazy ones, here you have two of their songs, from the first and second album, respectively:

I have their album Two Dancers, and it isn't bad, I quite like them. We Still Got The Taste Dancing On Our Tongues is a cool song.

Also, speaking of their songs, ever noticed that the tune from 'Underbelly' was in the Santander adverts? :P

Yeah, We Still Got The Taste Dancin' On Our Tongues is one of my favourites.

I never noticed it, but the ad may not exist here as it exists in the UK. In fact, I think the one now here is Holding Out For a Hero from Bonnie Tyler, except that it was changed to Holding Out For a Zero. :P

Edit: I have just seen it on YouTube and it really is!
