What’s the definition of “DESIRE” for you? Theo: “It's an uncontrollable passion that devours you. Also a certain darkness is associated with this emotion, when people are consumed by less desirable things. I like that it has more than one meaning." ⏳ 27 DAYS until… #HurtsDESIRE

“It’s got echoes of all three records. There are all these avenues we’ve gone down in the past, take a little bit from there, little bit from here. But overall we just wanted to make a big, powerful pop record and that’s definitely the track we’re on, so it feels good.” - Theo Hutchcraft   ⏳ 9 DAYS until… #HurtsDESIRE

"It's a very light, almost carefree, album.  When we make an album, we do not plan to make it dark or light. We write songs that sound how we feel at that time. Already on our last work we gave the ease a certain space and wanted to continue with the Desire further. Our first two albums were very dark and melancholic, so it was high time for some change. We love change! It can be good for the next album to get dark again...” - Theo Hutchcraft ⏳ 22 DAYS until… #HurtsDESIRE

The work on the album began less than a week after the Surrender Tour, in a tiny bedroom of only a few square meters in London. ("It was hotter than in a sauna," Adam groans.)

In stark contrast to the first two Hurts albums, both of which were detailed in their hometown of Manchester, they explored the world for "Surrender" in search of inspiration. "We were in the USA, Switzerland, Finland and Ibiza, almost everywhere," recalls Adam Anderson. "But with this album, we felt we did not need any further inspiration from outside," Theo says. "We recorded the whole album in a bedroom in London. It was the simplest set-up.” ⏳ 24 DAYS until… #HurtsDESIRE

"The challenge with every new album is not to repeat ourselves. But this is a very traditional HURTS song" ⏳ 12 DAYS until... #HurtsDESIRE
