The group's debut studio album, Communion, was released in 2015, charting at number one on the UK Albums Chart and obtaining Platinum status in the country. Their debut single failed to chart in the UK, however third single "Desire" reached the top 40. The band achieved global success and recognition for their 2015 single "King", which topped the UK charts and attained top-ten positions around the world. This was followed by "Shine" and "Eyes Shut". Three years later in 2018, the band released their second album Palo Santo, which was accompanied by the singles "Sanctify" and "If You're Over Me".

Notes
  1. "Play" also features on Jax Jones' debut EP Snacks.
  2. The music video for "I Wish I Knew" is no longer available on Years & Years' YouTube account.
gollark: > i'd support banning it straight through, independent of any mechanisms, as peer-reviewed research has showed it's shitIf you go around banning it, though, *there is clearly a way your government can ban that stuff*, hence meaning there's a mechanism for and/or support for it. And that's bad.
gollark: If there was a mechanism in place to stop people doing that sort of only-self-harming-maybe stuff, which there is now, it *would* (and *has*) been affected by political pressure.
gollark: Thing is, this mechanism for banning things would be controlled by a *government* or something, which means that when a sufficient mass of people complain that something is Clearly Immoral™ (see: homosexuality, drugs, whatever else) it would be banned.
gollark: Too bad!
gollark: Maybe require a warning or something, at most?
