Win tickets to Skullcandy presents The Straight Series featuring Young the Giant plus a Skullcandy Barricade Bluetooth speaker

      Los Angeles quintet Young the Giant continue to brave new sonic landscapes with their wildly adventurous third album Home of the Strange (out now). On this new release, the band explores their expansive musicianship with boldly eclectic arrangements anchored by a keen melodic presence.

      Home of the Strange is the follow up to 2014’s Mind Over Matter, which was both a commercial and critical success. In addition to scoring a Top 10 debut on the Soundscan/Billboard 200 chart and Top 5 Alternative Radio hit with “It’s About Time,” the album received a raft of praise from Rolling Stone, Entertainment Weekly, USA Today, and The New York Times who not only raved about how "...the group gobbles up bits of several segments of rock history - prog-rock, boogie metal, Southern rock, soft rock, new wave, dance-rock, and more - and claims ownership of them" but also declared frontman Sameer Gadhia as "one of the great contemporary rock voices."

      Young the Giant first broke through with their 2010 self-titled debut album, which featured the RIAA-gold certified smashes, "My Body" and "Cough Syrup." Since then, the band has toured the world, performing numerous sold-out headlining tours and have become a festival mainstay at high profile outings such including Bonnaroo, Austin City Limits, Lollapalooza, Outsidelands and Governor's Ball among others.

      Skullcandy celebrates the risk-takers, innovators and pioneers. Those who break free from the herd and forge their own path. We celebrate them living life on their own terms and the soundtracks that inspire them to reach their full potential. They motivate us to be uncompromising, unapologetic, to express ourselves and stay true to who we are no matter the consequences. To live at full volume. #StayLoud
