The futuristic music video for the single tackles themes of isolation and queerness is an intolerant era.

Years & Years released their No. 1 album Communion in 2015, with their sixth single, 'King', becoming an international hit.

Speaking about their new track in a press release, frontman Olly Alexander said: “The video for ‘Sanctify’ centres around an audition against the backdrop of a future metropolis called Palo Santo. It’s the first part of a bigger jigsaw puzzle and my hope is that it confuses the hell out of people but also excites them in a mysterious and sensual way.

“We’ve deliberately hidden lots of different meanings and I want people to come up with their own interpretations, I’m asking people to jump down the rabbit hole with me and let their imagination run free.”

Details about Years & Years' second album have yet to be announced.
