Busted showcase new synth-pop sound on comeback track ‘Coming Home’

It's the first new music from the reunited group in 12 years

Busted have unveiled their new single, titled ‘Coming Home’. The song is the band’s first new music in 12 years and sees a departure from their previous pop-punk sound.

The group reformed recently after a ten-year absence, with Charlie Simpson rejoining the after James Bourne and Matt Willis spent a period touring with fellow pop outfit McFly under the supergroup name of ‘McBusted’.

Simpson – who once described the group as “torture” – previously talked up the band’s new material, saying: “The new songs are really exciting. It’s different to any of the stuff we’ve done before.”
