Bloody hell didn't know we had talent like this coming out of Wigan

[@Ricsard]

The Verve were also from Wigan... easily one of the top bands of the 90's.

[@fantomaeronautics1148]

Are you joking? Wigan is a hotbed of talent and always has been. Lots of great bands. Click on our avatar and it will take you to Fantom Aeronautics, where you can check out some more of Wigan's finest new and original underground music under the VIDEOS tab. You are welcome.

[@loganwallsmusic9759]

Wigan’s got absolutely loads atm my mate, Stanleys, Flechettes, Facades etc. Check em out of you haven’t already all great bands 👍

[@northwestmusiccollective1169]

Wigan has had a strong music scene for decades and many very good bands emerged within that time period. Sadly, a high percentage of those bands were never given the chance of going beyond the limitations of being in a band in a relatively ignored (by the majority of Britain) town lost in the vast northern area of England. Possibly very difficult to find information on all these bands of the past 65 years and the Internet does not provide much of this information. But, there are many people out there who can supply a lot of information on Wigan bands and musicians.

[@jamiechatterton6564]

The Lathums boss The Verve legends but Oasis Tops it all. Love this tune though

[@padraigmckenna]

I’m an old man of 53 now and this music takes me right back to my youth reminds me of the indie bands of the 80s and 90s great music lads God bless

[@davidgarswood8329]

I hear The Police in this song. Sting could've done that song.

[@ws9632]

Can just imagine these lads pissing about in the sixth-form music room and the music teacher who's an old arse Smiths fan coming in and hearing them jamming this and losing his mind

[@markelbenedicto5808]

Just listened them for the first time at a festival while I was waiting for Arctic Monkeysto play and this song was just pure joy I mean they completely stole the show. I sware they got so much music in them they are gonna blow up eventually

[@fionat415]

It was Epic! What a way to start a festival 🎶💃

[@gurpinderkaur2277]

Thank you Louis for showing me these talented people🥹❤️

[@lukeycc67]

This is the sort of music we all need right now.

[@ExplodingHaggis]

Agreed. For all the wrong reasons this comment is aging well. ;) With all that is happening in the world, this music strikes a chord.

[@lornemcneil]

And life strikes a choice in you 😊

[@reflawed]

remember playing bo2 ffa with one of the guys in this band everyday for years, so happy for everything hes become

[@cracklingvinyl6779]

Haven't heard anything this fresh since The Wombats/ The Libertines. Gonna go far these Wigan lads

[@bipolarmumjourney]

It's ages since I've liked a new band. These guys are gona be huge, LOVE THEM.

[@ianstewart1838]

Pure talent, proper musicians. How music should be.

[@caitlinthompson9457]

OMG!!! NO WAY WEVE JUST GOT A MUSIC VIDEO FOR FIGHT ON!! 😱🙌🖤💛🖤💛🖤

[@mishatomskovich7103]

BRITISH music at its very best in 2021. Johnny Marr quality guitar music. Singing wonderful too. Knocked Wolf Alice off my Top Spot.. Go Lancashire

[@lovroknezevic8555]

Just learned this song on guitar the other day. What a tune, what a band. If you guys don't reach the number 1 spot on the charts this week, we'll riot lmao

[@brockmccaw4259]

You Brits like this shit, for real? This is so average

[@brockmccaw4259]

@@liamcunliffe3388 this sounds like a watered down version of every band you lads have celebrated. Maybe try growing as a culture instead of eating sausages and beans and doing the same tired shite over and over m8

[@brockmccaw4259]

@@liamcunliffe3388 I literally just said all those bands are good. This one is derivative of all of them. If you like this you're genuinely stupid. Also I'm not a nationalist at all but your country has contributed to the canon about a tenth percent of what we have lol. You got no legs to stand on if you're really trying to make that argument. But Im sure you have no actual taste or knowledge of music if you think this shit is good

[@georged4578]

@@brockmccaw4259 I’m British and I agree this is nothing special

[@ChainNonSmoker]

Good music is good music, and if it's just good people'll like it effortlessy without constant comparison to their predecessors and contemporaries. Don't tryina be too smart about it. Saying that couldn't care less about their chart success as long as more bands like this will be produced.

[@user-zu8cv3we9u]

Это волшебно. В этих песнях есть теплое чувство воспоминаний, молодости, и свободы ❤❤😊❤❤

[@allenedrick]

i wanna thank myself because i know this band before my friends, the lathums

[@gracielahoefele5291]

Ever since my dad went on a night out in Wigan and came home pissed talking about how incredible The Lathums are, I can't stop listening to this song. It's so good! As a matter of fact, all the songs are. I hope you come to play in Austria some day!

[@durnin101]

Im an older generation just catching wind of these men. I can deffo hear the Smiths in them. Very impressive so far

[@steveg948]

Definitely

What I thought...

That's an insult to the smiths .. these are shit don't kid yourself

I know right? The kids still have rock in their veins and I'm in for it.

[@terencewalsh6971]

Only found this band this morning unbelievable what a breath of fresh air 👌👌👌😅

[@stnfny]

I'm here for louis. Thanks Louis, good recomendation. You guys are so talented, this is awesome. Great tune !!!

[@Rory-cj7zu]

One of the best compositions to come out of Wigan since Wigan AFC's reworking of "Freed from Desire" by GALA.

[@brandonspivey8020]

This band are bund for big things. Great music. Great lyrics and northern working class .Beautiful .

[@simonwalsh5567]

It's like a group of lads at a music college found some lost Johnny Marr riffs. I love it!

[@simonbaxter8000]

Freshest sounds in ten years, cracking voice

[@jamesbradley6249]

Can’t wait to see youse at Kendal Calling

[@SamMally2629]

One of the best songs I’ve ever heard

[@vibhortyagi6787]

They're going to be big. Give it 4 years

[@nicolajirving]

I love Alex and the band, they've brought me much happiness.

[@tammy_vip]

A very good debut album chaps, I’m loving the smithsesque vibe with a smattering of Paul Heaton. Imho this isn’t one of the stand outs on the album but it’s all subjective.

[@joshmccluskey6374]

Heard this played recently at Warrington Wolves vs Leeds Rhinos and i've never been captivated by a band so much as I was watching these extremely talented young men. They deffinately put a lot of bands to shame with how great they are both live and pre recorded music like this. The Lathums are deffinately going to go far 🙌

[@mitchellhiggon547]

Saw you guys support Keane at the weekend and I absolutely loved everything you played! Thank you so much

[@bryunferri7197]

Like a breath of fresh air, well done lads.

[@gazzk1974]

At last !!! I had gave up hope of a new band emerging like this.

[@dazheadlam9786]

One of the best Lathums tunes easy, banger!

[@adamrevitt4035]

My opinion 1 . Great Escape 2 . Fight on 3 . Foolish Parley

[@notapieceofsushi4219]

I didn't know these guys when I saw them at Hurricane Festival last weekend. Now I have watched every single video, they are absolutely fantastic. Love from Germany ❤️🇩🇪

[@khadijamoemen9137]

Yess thats my favorite on the album

[@LemonGhandiMan]

Kings!!! So happy wickermans now out

[@johnlochrie9513]

Only just heard these guys, the struggle, have to say, absolutely fantastic sound, very tight

[@sidewindersid4180]

There's a hint of 'The Clash' and 'Joy Division' about them. I wish them every success.

[@AhhTheBonnie]

Just saw The Lathums at Glastonbury on the Telly, Definitely my favourite New Band, Cracking Band You guys are gonna be huge! 🙌🎉
