One of Denmark's most raucous outfits, Yung, have announced their debut record A Youthful Dream and shared new song "Pills".

The Aarhus-based group recorded the album at Sound Studio in Sweden.

Speaking about the LP, frontman Mikkel Holm Silkjær says: “For me, Yung has always equalled total freedom. I don’t want Yung to be a band that you can put certain labels on. I wish for it to be a project that can principally go in any given direction.”

A Youthful Dream is released 10 June on Fat Possum.
