Demons & Siren released today!

Our new single ‘Demons’ has been released today and is now available to buy on iTunes at http://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/demons-single-single/id499274635 along with the other track ‘Siren’

Demons has been receiving lots of airplay on radio stations including Kerrang Radio, BBC Radio Manchester and Salford city radio and we’ve been getting some great feedback for the song.

It would mean a huge amount to us if you could buy a copy and leave us a good rating and maybe even a nice review.

Thanks to everyone who continues to support the band, it means a huge amount to us.

The Words.

Interview for BBC Introducing in Manchester

We were interviewed for BBC Introducing in Manchester last week to talk about the album, what’s next for the band and an announcement on the next single which will be a double a side of Demons & Siren and will be released on February 13th 2012.

The show was aired on Sunday and can be heard again at http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00lr4v3 for a limited time

The Words @ Stuttgarter Sternstunden

Full set from The Words apperance at the Stuttgarter Sternstunden festival in Stuttgart on 11.08.11.

The Words were hand picked by Mercedes-Benz for their recent 125th birthday celebrations in Stuttgart, Germany as their up and coming band to support Placebo & 30 Seconds to Mars.

The Words played an incredible 30 minute set which had the 35,000 plus crowd eating out of the palm of their hands with new single ‘Everybody’s With You’ and ‘FAG’ going down particularly well.

This was the first and almost certainly the last time that Stuttgart city centre has been closed off for a concert so it was an amazing honour for the band to appear.

Alongside the performance The Words were also interviewed for Mercedes-Benz TV and the Mercedes-Benz Mixed Tape website.

Full set list…

1. Everybody’s With You
2. Siren
3. La la la
4. Under the Sun
5. FAG
6. Truth & Faith
7. Stand up, sit down
