The name "Younger Brother" is inspired by an indigenous Colombian tribe called The Kogi, for whom the band wrote their first song. The Kogi refer to themselves as "Elder Brothers" and the people of western civilisations as "Younger Brothers."
The debut album A Flock of Bleeps released on Posford's Twisted Records in 2003 has taken on cult status in the underground electronica scenes around the world. The duo has since then been drawing crowds in the thousands from London to Tokyo, New York to Australia.
Their second album, The Last Days Of Gravity was released in October 2007 on Twisted Records.
This album narrowly missed out on a mercury prize nomination in 2008 when it was voted 19th( the top 12 are nominated)
Since the release of The Last Days Of Gravity the band have been touring the world with a five piece band. At the moment it comprises Ru Campbell on vocals, Marc Brownstein on Bass, Tommy Hamilton on guitar and Joe Russo on Drums.
In November 2008 the full band convened at Assault and Battery studios in north London, UK, to commence recording of their third album. By recording with a full band Younger brother have propelled their music to a new level. The fruits of this recording session should be revealed by summer 2009 followed by extensive touring of the US and the world.

Psychic Gibbon
Younger Brother Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
See you in the stars at night (rpt)
See you in the river flowing
See you in the grass (rpt)
Feel you as I find myself flowing
Feel you as I find myself feeling
Five toes five fingers all the time
Ooooooh...
It's a higher higher ground (echo)
The lyrics to "Psychic Gibbon" by Younger Brother are abstract and poetic, with a focus on nature and spirituality. The chorus of the song revolves around the idea of seeing and feeling the presence of someone, presumably a loved one, in different natural elements. The line "see you in the sky in the morning" suggests a sense of hope and optimism for the future, as the sky represents a wide expanse of possibilities. Similarly, the line "see you in the stars at night" evokes a sense of wonder and mystery, implying that the subject of the song is someone who is otherworldly and difficult to fully understand.
The following lines "see you in the river flowing" and "see you in the grass" suggest a connection to the natural world and a sense of oneness with the environment. The repeated line "feel you as I find myself flowing" suggests that the singer is experiencing a deep sense of connection or synchronicity with the subject of the song. The final line of the chorus "it's a higher higher ground" echoes the themes of spirituality and transcendence that run throughout the song.
Overall, "Psychic Gibbon" is a lyrically complex and emotionally evocative song that encourages a deep sense of connection with the natural world and with loved ones.

@MountainJohn
Some people who are too simple, cant have bad trips, like some kind of shell of a human. If anyone calls you a pussy for being vulnrable, understand we arent all on the same level.
@pyklwheostanzan6901
@Zenmaster6 a "bad trip" is a learning experience that you were resistant towards usually, or you had a bad set/setting. imho you cant ever have a "bad trip" unless you end up in the hospital or some shit. that "some people are to simple, cant have bad trips" stuff is bs, they just aren't doing big enough doses.
