Ash release new single

Having got us all excited with May’s ‘Return Of White Rabbit’ taster, Ash launch their A-Z Series of limited-edition 7” and download singles on October 12 with ‘True Love 1980’.
“True love/A silver heart upon a chain/In 1980 was engraved/A heart so innocent/Before you knew a world of pain/Before you learned to be afraid/And lived through times so cruel/But you can start again/For what you mean to me/No words can explain,” croons Tim Wheeler while simultaneously assisting with the making of a gorgeous electro-pop noise. Not exactly La Roux but definitely, as the French would say, à la mode!
The first of 26 such fortnightly releases, it’s accompanied by an extensive 26-date UK tour, which takes the boys all the way from Aldershot’s West End Centre to Zennor Village Hall.
If there aren’t Irish dates before Christmas, we’ll be officially cross!
