The three-minute song features a blitz of buzzsaw guitars, speaker-bursting rhythms and fervent emotions as frontman Alex Moore sings: “For there’s no direction but up” in the song’s anthemic chorus, describing how there is no space for fear and worry when you are chasing your dream.

Speaking about the song in a press release, Moore said: “There is no direction now but up. With time and experience I’ve learned that a bit of common sense and a clear mind is all it takes to accept my insecurities and not let them lead or consume me. What’s done is done, let the past go and spend time on becoming better. Fear and pain have no place in moving forward, they exist only as a lesson when you reach your final destination.”

The song marks the band’s first new music since the release of their 2023 album ‘From Nothing To A Little Bit More’ – which saw them earn their second Number One LP in the UK album charts – and their standalone single ‘Thoughts Of A Child’ which was shared last October.

‘No Direction’ also comes a few days ahead of The Lathums’ biggest show yet at Robin Park in Wigan. They will be joined by Jake Bugg and Brooke Combe who will serve as opening support. You can visit here for any remaining tickets.

The Lathums will also be part of the line-up for Liam Gallagher’s Malta Weekender in September, as well as Portsmouth’s Victorious Festival in August.

The Wigan four-piece spoke to NME ahead of the release of ‘From Nothing To A Little Bit More’ last year. Moore said: “What’s the point in putting so much into something that you’re not genuinely passionate about? I think it’s quite refreshing that people can see that there’s genuine feelings behind these songs, not like a lot of music that’s out nowadays that’s got no emotion or substance behind it. You can tell those people are singing about what they think people want [to hear]. But I don’t give you what you want: I give you what you need.”
