"Flaws" is the debut single by British band Bastille, first released in 2011 through the independent label Young and Lost Club as a double A-side 7-inch single with their song "Icarus". The single was later re-released through Virgin Records as a digital download on 21 October 2012, featuring remixes and new B-side track "Durban Skies", peaking at number 21 on the UK Singles Chart on this occasion. "Flaws" was released for a third time on 3 March 2014, but did not improve upon its previous peak.

"Flaws" makes extensive use of compound quadruple meter (12
8
time).[1]

Music video

Two music videos have been produced. The first accompanied the 2012 release of "Flaws" and was first released onto YouTube on 12 September 2012 at a total length of three minutes and forty-one seconds.[2] A second video released in 2014 for the single's re-release documents the band's experiences of 2013 via a video montage of several of their performances.
