Hotly tipped Sydney rock band Gang of Youths have supported the likes of Foster The People, Sky Ferreira and Vampire Weekend and with the announcement of their debut album The Positions (via Sony) they are ready to make their boldest statement yet.

If lead single Radioface is anything to go by- the album will be intense, brooding and dynamic. Radioface is a 7 minute epic that has already been added to Triple J rotation.

The Positions is available April 17 and can be pre-ordered for $10 via iTunes here.
