Description
Marking a decade of Nothing But Thieves last year, with four albums, billions of
streams, thousands of worldwide live shows and a global dedicated fanbase, the
Southend five-piece make their musical return today and launch their next chapter with
euphoric new single ‘Evolution’ out now via RCA/Sony Music.
With an ever-evolving world-building approach both musically and visually, Nothing
But Thieves returned to their roots – literally and thematically - during their recent time
in the studio, recording at Angelic Studios where they made their debut record, looking
back to how they began with a DIY spirit rooted in authenticity. New single ‘Evolution’
is the first taster of the band’s new music and was showcased to 250 in-person and
millions of global fans last night as part of a YouTube livestream, alongside receiving
its first play with Jack Saunders as Radio 1’s Hottest Record.
With an adept ability to experiment between the genres that influence them as a band,
the elated and fast-paced track combines soaring vocals and energetic guitars into a
communal anthem that is uniquely and brilliantly Nothing But Thieves. With a subtle
lyrical nod to a hometown live venue that shaped their beginnings, the track is a
visceral statement of intent, inspiring harmony, nostalgia and hope. The video, filmed
in London alongside 250-fans during last night’s livestream, will be premiering next
week alongside further news from the band. Nothing But Thieves say,
“It's a song that's not too concerned about finality. I think imperfection and authenticity
is becoming ever more valuable and it's definitely something we're drawn to.”
“We've spent some time trying to work out what's real and tangible about who we are
and how we use our time. The people we travel the world with, the human moments
on stage, the connection we make with those who come to our shows. That's real.”
“It's a bit of a love letter to the people in our world in that way.”
In 2023, Nothing But Thieves scored their debut #1 album with ‘Dead Club City’,
which marked their fourth Top 10 record following ‘Moral Panic’, ‘Broken Machine’
and ‘Nothing But Thieves’. They accompanied their last record with the ‘The DCC
World Tour’, which included two sold-out nights at London’s Wembley Arena alongside
multiple sold-out arenas and shows across Europe and North America, steadily
building their status as one of the UK and Europe’s biggest touring bands. Amassing
over 1.2 million worldwide album sales, 2 billion worldwide streams and 250 million
video views, they have built up a loyal and wide following for their impactful alt rock
sound and achieved global success with multiple gold and platinum records around
the world.
