Paul Weller has announced he will release a new double A-side single on June 14th, digitaly, on CD and on two 7″ vinyl records.

The two tracks that will feature on the release are "Find The Torch, Burn the Plans" and "Aim High," which are taken from Paul’s recent album “Wake Up The Nation”.

Speaking about Find The Torch Paul explained: “Thematically, it ties in with the title track of the album. We’ve got to reclaim our heritage and our culture. Claim it back from the fucking politicians and the establishment. My daughter (Leah) and her mate sang on it too.”

“Aim High was initially one phrase repeated over and over. I hit that falsetto voice, which was nice because I haven’t used it for a long time. Once I had the melody I wrote the words really quickly.”

B-sides are still to be confirmed.

I didn’t want to make As Is Now Part 2,” Weller tells Rock Daily. “There was this mentality where it was like, ‘Let’s try anything that comes into your mind.’” Weller sequestered himself in his country studio, recruited some famous Britpop friends like Oasis‘ Noel Gallagher and Blur’s Graham Coxon and spent hours improvising with his band. The result was 22 Dreams, a genre-leapin
