We say
A “soaring short sharp blast of melodic punk rockness”, according to Zane Lowe, who made this a Hottest Record In The World recently. We first heard I Still Believe, with its shout-along refrain, when Frank Turner played it at shows during the summer – it's definitely a live favourite. And now it's the key track from the forthcoming Rock & Roll EP, and the first taste of his next album - due out in late Spring 2011. In addition to Zane Lowe, further Radio 1 plays for this have come already from Fearne Cotton and Mike Davies, and playlist adds from 6Music and XFM daytime. Having supported Green Day at Wembley Stadium earlier this year, Turner is currently supporting Social Distortion in the US, before he returns for a December UK tour. We get the feeling that by next summer, a host of new fans and more besides will be singing this back at Frank Turner. Video.London gig: December 12, Brixton Academy SW9
