Here's a video clip of the band's performance at the London 2012 concert yesterday. They performed two songs - new single Lies and a cover of The Winner Takes It All (of which I think Danny strains too hard on).
You may have noticed that something has changed around these here parts.
That's because I've completely redesigned the site, using recent pictures and logo from the Radio:ACTIVE album. I've also got the Singles and Albums pages fully updated, and added a lot more pages to the Lyrics page (with more still to come). And finally, the profiles page is online at last.
Enjoy looking around the new look site, any comments then email me at simon@simonswebsite.co.uk.
The new album is brilliant by the way, the full CD release is out on 22nd September, with new single 'Lies' which you can see the video for this weekend on T4. McFly can also be seen on the London 2012 party after the Olympics Closing Ceremony on BBC 1 on Sunday at around 3:15pm.
As you maybe aware, the new McFly single has been revealed. It's called "One For The Radio" and was first heard on June 1st on Radio 1 Switch with Nick Grimshaw.
The single will be released on July 14th, with the album now titled Radioactive released a week later on July 21st. These will be the first things released under McFly's own label - Super Records.
McFly posted this on their MySpace blog earlier this week...
Hey everyone,
As you may have heard, we have created a brand new record label called "SUPER RECORDS"! We are all unbelievably excited to be releasing our new album and singles through our own label as it now allows us to have complete creative control over our music. This means that from now on, everything you see and hear from McFLY comes 100% from us and no one else!
Obviously this is a huge step in our career and we would not be able to do it without all our incredibly loyal fans. Your support was a huge factor in the decision to start this new venture and we hope you are all as excited as we are.
We are almost finished making our 4th studio album and we truly feel it is the best we have ever made. We hope you are as eager to hear it as we are to release it...it wont be long! The single will be out on July 14th and the album on the 21st but you will start to see and hear a lot of changes before then.
So, watch this space! Tom, Danny, Dougie and Harry SUPER RECORDS - Saving The World, One Song At A Time
Also a report on Digital Spy reckons the new album will be more rockier...
McFly have said that their first album on independent label Super Records will be edgier than previous material. The pop band parted ways with their old record company Island following the release of their Greatest Hits last year.
Singer Tom Fletcher claimed the group's new LP wouldn't be polished or altered by their label like their last three records. "When we recorded our albums before they’d always come back sounding miles different from what we wanted. We’d write lyrics and be told to change them," said Fletcher. Harry Judd added: "We’ve got closet fans and I think now they won’t be so ashamed to admit they like us."
According to The Sun, the new songs make the group sound like "full-blooded, ballsy rockers".
