Alongside this, the band have revealed their new single Armour, taken from last years Common People album. Vocalist Kerr Okan says of the track; “Armour was the last song we recorded for Common Problem. Two days before the record went to the mastering stage we were sitting with our originally planned 11-track album, but we just had a sense that something was missing. At this point I still felt like I had something left to say on the record. With Explosion, and Asleep I had opened and ended a conversation, but I hadn’t yet fully explained myself – Armour was the punch line. “Lost dreamers who bowed out with no merit/when life hits hard like a right hook they forget it.” Our producer Joe Cross (The Courteeners) added the vocal chops in the verse and it gave me something new to bounce off. The next day I drove down to Manchester to record the lead vocal.”
