Watch: Wild Beasts live at Hoxton Hall
JoeDiddly by Luke Slater October 21st, 2009

Earlier in the year, band du jour Wild Beasts played a pretty spectacular and jawdropping show to a rammed, smoky, sweltering and quite probably excited Hoxton Hall. It was an extravagant setting to a performance of one of (if not the) finest album of the year in Two Dancers.

And what a show it was. If you weren't there then you're going to have to take my word for it OR you could just watch it for yourself, in full, like. What?! Yes, you should be elated to know that, as a sort of present to their fans and anyone else who's interested, they've put up the whole gig, in video form, on their official website. Click here to get in on that action.

Here's a sneaky peek at 'Hooting & Howling' and 'All The King's Men', the lead two singles from Two Dancers. If you look closely you'll notice you can download each of these tracks, too. Take advantage of it I tells ya!

'Hooting & Howling':

'All The King's Men':

You can catch them live at the following places in the near future:

22 October - Cardiff, SWN Festival
4 November - Belfast, Limelight
5 November - Dublin, Academy 2
20 November - London, Brixton Academy supporting White Lies

They're also going to be appearing with on Later...with Jools Holland next week. So keep 'em peeled. Then, of course, there's the headline show in London at KOKO on March 4. These boys are gonna be big by then.
