Handsome Devil's Club received its worldwide premiere as Zane Lowe's Hottest Record In The World a fortnight ago and has been getting great support across Radio 1, XFM and Absolute since. Handsome Devil's Club, as uplifting and propulsive as you'd want a song about – as Frank Carter defines it – "being young and having fun" to be. The video can be seen at http://therealpurelove.com/video.

The single follows the free download Bury My Bones that was released last month and has already clocked up nearly ½ million views on YouTube and was downloaded in the thousands in its first few days.

Pure Love have recently finished their highly anticipated debut album with legendary producer Gil Norton. Produced in Brooklyn, where both Frank and Jim reside, the debut will be released in October, on Vertigo Records.
