Youth Man Post Video for ‘Pigs’, Announce UK Tour

Birmingham, UK punks Youth Man have posted a new video for their previously unreleased track Pigs. The video was filmed  by Chris Jackson, a long term friend of the band who also directed their Heavy Rain and Skin videos. Drummer Marcus Perks said this about the shoot:

“This was probably our favourite video to film so far…I found yet another excuse to get my body out. We just got to make a mess and be a bit sadistic for a few hours. The guy in the chair is Ike, who produces most of our music. He was in the Skin video too, and it’s his fist in the Joy video that smacks us in the face. We wanted him to throw up but clearly he is a monster. We managed to force feed him about 15 burgers, one after the other, before he started to choke cos the burgers were so dry. It got pretty intense. In retrospect we should’ve got cheeseburgers so the cheese added some lubrication to the situation.”

Along with the video, the band have also announced a series of tour dates, including a couple of UK festival appearances. Check out the full list of dates, and the video for Pigs, below.
