The Script this week have premiered their video for ‘Superheroes’, their brand new single, the first to be released from their highly anticipated fourth album NO SOUND WITHOUT SILENCE.
Directed by Vaughan Arnell, the video was shot in Johannesburg, South Africa and premiered this week on VEVO. The three-piece were extremely thankful to all those they met whilst filming in one of the most beautiful countries in the world, and have left with some everlasting memories.
The Script’s fourth album, NO SOUND WITHOUT SILENCE, is the sound of a band firing on all cylinders and channeling the momentum of their last, rocket-powered campaign. The trio of songwriters had so many ideas while touring last year, they were busting out of the specially built mobile recording studio they’d taken with them on the tour bus. They finished touring #3 at the end of last year, took a scant couple of weeks off, then quickly re-entered their studios in London and Dublin to begin work on the highly anticipated NO SOUND WITHOUT SILENCE.
The first single, the ultra-catchy ‘Superheroes’, blessed with an appropriate sense of sky-scraping uplift, and underpinned with crunchy guitar riffs, was one of the first tracks to be written and was inspired by the highs as they came off stage at one of their sold out stadium shows in the USA. ‘Superheroes’ is all over the world’s airwaves, and has been playlisted already in the UK at Radio 1, Capital and Bauer.
The Script have scored a huge amount of success globally – they have sold over 20 million records, and all 3 albums have been multi-platinum throughout the world. Hall Of Fame, the lead single from last album #3, was a worldwide #1 single with over 5 million sales, 133 million Youtube views, and over 100 million Spotify plays and accredited a massive 6 times platinum here in Australia. The Script have done especially well Stateside, where they have 5 Platinum singles and have sold over 1 million albums. Their #3 world tour spanned 11 months, and saw them play sold out arena shows in Europe, North America, Asia and Australia including 2 shows at London’s O2 Arena.
