The band surprise dropped a new album, 'Lose Your Self', today (April 10) after playing a tiny show at Manchester's Satan's Hollow
Frontman Rou Reynolds tells us about fighting the temptation to be “sucked into a digital, self-interested and disconnected world”, their biggest tour to date, and how grassroots venues create an “indiscriminate” sense of community
They'll return to the same 400-capacity venue they first performed at way back in 2006: "Let’s do it all over again"
UK shows include two nights at London’s Alexandra Palace, and the band will once again implement a £1 ticket levy to help support grassroots music venues and emerging artists
It is in support of the 'No Music On A Dead Planet' campaign to establish regional climate hubs across the UK
Backstage at the festival, the frontman told us about their plans for a new album, the momentum of their £1 ticket levy to support grassroots venues, and their long-running history with Reading & Leeds
"To be silent in times of atrocity is to assist in maintaining that atrocity"
