Years & Years, fresh from ensnaring the nation's attention with hit single "King" have returned for "Shine".
It's not quite the same instant-gratification tune, rather a slower part of the trio's canon. It shows Olly Alexander's ability to carve heartbreak from the electro-pop backing, and although it detonates in the chorus, the track's real strength is its ability to yank at your heartstrings.
Communion is out 10 July on Polydor.
Listen to "Shine" below.
