Lead track ‘Man In The Arena’ is a rousing, defiant anthem complete with stirring martial drumbeats that draws on all the band's experiences and worldwide successes over the last two decades, cementing their status as surefire pop rock giants.
As their passionate, dedicated fanbase know all too well, The Script also have that crucial thing: real, emotional, soul-deep connection.
