He used the opportunity to hype up the record, which he revealed to NME earlier this year would be a Britpop-inspired concept album .

So it’s made to be played start-to-finish, which is a really cool thing to do.” “The opening song’s nine-minutes,” he added, before Sharon Osbourne asked when it’s due out.

The Britpop flavours on ‘Breakdown’ were first hinted at in NME ’s interview with Yungblud back in March , when he described his next album as being made in “the North”, and representing “the light”.
