5 Seconds of Summer's Ashton Irwin has announced his second solo album, 'BLOOD ON THE DRUMS'
The record will be released in two parts.

5 Seconds of Summer's Ashton Irwin has announced his second solo album, 'BLOOD ON THE DRUMS'.
The drummer's new full-length will arrive on 17th July, teased by 80s-inspired early single 'Straight To Your Heart', the video for which was shot on location in the California desert and sees him showing off his motorcycle and archery skills.
"I love to make full length albums but also the idea of the listener digesting it in two parts initially, forming their own interpretation. It’s important to me as a fan of music to have a comprehensive body of work to fully dig into the artists perspective," Ashton says.
The record will be released in two instalments: 'The Thorns' (Side 1) on 12th June, and 'The Roses' (Side 2) on 17th July.
"I was thinking about the people I left behind, the people I miss, the family that I had to leave when I was young," he continues. "Thinking about the addictions I’ve been through. The way I evolved as a young man who never had a father. Thinking about my personal strength and knowing that generally speaking no one else has my back but me and becoming someone that I have to be for the rest of my life."
