Alongside the announcement comes his new single ‘Zombieland’ and a run of winter 2024 UK and EU dates. A bone-crunching Beatles-via-Nirvana guitar driven banger, ‘Zombieland’ is a rollicking ode to the many broken by the inescapable daily grind, trudging on with a stiff upper lip. “It’s fucking brutal,” he says of the people he’s known who exist in “a constant cycle of working to live”. “They’re not paid what they’re worth. People have the same routine every day, they’re at work more than they see their kids, then the government puts the retirement age up. It’s not right.” Produced by Metrophonic at Metrophonic Studios in London, Jake returns to his roots on the rock-driven A Modern Day Distraction – a record that turns up the noise while shining a light on the injustice he’s seen dealt to the family and friends he grew up with. Fiery and engaged, the record was born out of a frustration of societal inequality. Bugg found that a time had come when he just couldn’t look away. “People might say ‘What do you know?’ or ‘Just stick to music’. I’ve got a bit of money, but we all know the people this affects. I was just writing it because it was the way I felt. It pisses me off – especially in a country like ours where we have the means and funds to take care of the people suffering the most, but we choose not to.” Now 12 years and six albums since he emerged with his streetwise and spritely, Mercury-nominated, chart-topping, self-titled debut, one might forget he was just 18 at the time. He’s put in the hours and achieved so much, but he’s only 30 and still seeing the front rows of his shows getting younger. In that spirit, Bugg still feels his best work is ahead of him: “You just have to put your songs out into the universe and hope for the best.” Artist Jake Bugg Genre Rock And Pop Label Sony Music Buying Options 1LP , 1LP Coloured Vinyl Format 1LP , Coloured Vinyl Condition New Country UK Track Listings TBA Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Jake Bugg View Product Quick View Jake Bugg Jake Bugg (10th Deluxe Anniversary Edition) Rock And Pop | EMI | 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 14th October 2022 £33.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Jake Bugg Jake Bugg (10th Deluxe Anniversary Edition) £33.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: EMI SKU: 4538545 Formats: 2LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 14th October 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders On Sale View Product Quick View Jake Bugg Saturday Night, Sunday Morning Rock And Pop | Sony Music | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 20th August 2021 £9.99 -
