Declan McKenna is (finally!) releasing his first (non-soundtrack) new material since his 2017 debut album today - titled 'British Bombs'. Looking forward to it

Ooooh I wasn't expecting new music THIS soon!! Exciting!

The title is... interesting. Intrigued to hear!

It's Annie Mac's Hottest Record tonight - so will be released at 19:30!

Finally! I've been enjoying In Blue/Regurgitated but looking forward to his proper comeback!

I forgot about this artist, thoroughly enjoyed his first album!

This is absolutely fantastic! Lyrically reminds me of Sam Fender, but the sound is a lot more upbeat!



The video is brilliant as well

I'm sure he said his second album was going to be less topical and more personal? Anyway it's sounding alright, I'll have to see how it grows!

I'm intrigued as to whether this is his lead single or if it's a Tom Odell esque situation with Wrong Crowd coming a short while before actual lead single Magnetised? This doesn't sound made for radio unless that was the point of picking it as lead

I quite like it but it's unlikely to ever be a huge favourite for me. Need to focus more on the lyrics I guess!

Anyone else get ‘Push the Button’ from this in the verses?

Wasn't keen on it at first, but listened to it back again today and found myself bopping along - great to have Declan back!
