Frank Turner - Four Simple Words

Song of the Day

Our pal and all around good dude, Frank Turner, has a new album out and he needs our help promoting it about as much as McDonald’s needs a Yelp review from some fatass slob in Kentucky.  

Frank recently explained to The Guardian that he was getting 100 death threats per day after a blog post painted him as some sort of crazy rightwing activist. What kind of reckless rag of anti-journalism would’ve published that? Oh right, it was also The Guardian.

As we get our share of hatemail here as well, we thought it’d be good to remind you: If you’re going through the trouble of reaching out to someone to let them know how much you disagree with them, fine. But you goddamn well have better read past the headline. 

Frank Turner Posts Documentary Trailer

Our friend and yours, Frank Turner, has posted a trailer for his forthcoming documentary DVD, I Still Believe (The Road to Wembley). Aladdin vests aside, it looks pretty fantastic. The documentary follows Turner as he tours North America, Europe, and the UK in the months leading up to his headlining sold out show at Wembley Arena, which by the way, is a 12k+ person venue. Pre-order it here.
