Wild Beasts' year has been rather exceptional: from their phenomenal 10/10 LP Present Tense (a Best Fit Fifty Most Essential Album Of 2014) to an array of breathtaking shows, one of Kendal's finest indie-pop prospects have done it all in 2014.
Except perform massive single "Wanderlust" on a 60-year-old pipe organ comprising 7,866 pipes.
Well, thanks to Noisey and Philips, that's been rectified.
Watch their live session performance of the track below, filmed at the Royal Festival Hall.
Also, Hayden Thorpe is rocking a beard and turtleneck.
