Having stormed back onto the UK charts with their top ten album ‘Weapons’, Lostprophets will release their new single ‘We Bring An Arsenal’ on June 4th. Lostprophets have also announced a massive UK tour for later this year following their sold out April/May tour.
An instant fan favourite after only a few live airings, 'We Bring an Arsenal' is described by Kerrang as
‘a colossal slice of hard rocking braggadocio with a chorus so infectious that this summer’s festival crowds are probably already singing it’.
Guitarist Mike Lewis says: ‘We Bring An Arsenal is about us as a band, our gang mentality. We’ve always had that, even before we formed Lostprophets. When we were just mates growing up, we had that us vs. them, underdog mentality. That song is about that – whatever you throw at us we’ll come back with more.’
