Modestep are to embark on a UK headline tour shortly after the release of ‘Evolution Theory’, the highly anticipated debut album from north London dubstep-rock band.
‘Evolution Theory’ is released on 14th January on Max Records/A&M. Containing all their hit singles - ‘Sunlight,’ ‘Feel Good,’ ’Show Me A Sign,’ and ‘To The Stars’, plus new single ‘Another Day’ Featuring Popeska - ‘Evolution Theory’ was written, recorded and produced by Modestep.
Aside from the singles - whose videos have received over 45 million views on YouTube - other album highlights include the immense, hook-heavy ‘Burn’, featuring Dirtee Stank’s Newham Generals, and the intense ‘Praying For Silence’ (featuring Document One), written about the 2011 riots. Modestep vary the pace with the spacey dub-rock of ‘Time,’ the lighters-in-the-air epic ‘Save The World’ – which sounds like the theme tune to a future Bond film - and awesome title track ‘Evolution Theory’ (featuring D Power, Jammin, Frisco & Jammer) which builds from downtempo, grime beginnings into a full-on dubstep monster.
