Happy New Year, we hope All The Beautiful Things In The World are coming to you in 2012. Firstly, helpfully, here’s a NSFW clip for Caged Animals from master found footage manipulator Jamie Harley. As premiered today on Stereogum in the US and Dazed in the UK.

It’s already been quite a year for Friends.  With their single “I’m His Girl” conquering radio airwaves across the World and racking up 300,000+ YouTube plays, their sold out debut UK shows in the Autumn, and recently being tipped as one of Q Magazine’s Faces of 2012 amongst their omnipresent positive press. And today came the very exciting news that Friends are the only independently-signed artist to have made it onto the long-list for the BBC Sound Poll of 2012.

For the uninitiated, the BBC Sound Poll long-list rounds up fifteen of the best rising music stars, as picked by 180+ leading UK tastemakers. With this inclusion, Friends join previous luminaries like Warpaint, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Vampire Weekend, MGMT and select others, thereby cementing their position as the hottest and most promising new band to look out for in 2012.
