The station has officially confirmed they will begin incorporating Stiff Little Fingers into their rotation. It is gratifying to see such a dedicated group of listeners provide the necessary momentum to finally bring this music to the airwaves. Please keep listening as these songs find their rightful place on the …

We would like to show Absolute Radio that there is a growing demand to hear music by Stiff Little Fingers on uk national radio. This band has been touring and releasing albums or 37+ years, mostly with little or no media support, but consistently playing to bigger crowds, with a growing number of 'young uns' coming along.
Their accomplishment in reaching their crowdfunded 2014 albums target in 12 hours completely missed the attention of Absolute Radio, as did its no 1 placing on the BBC Rock Album chart.
For a station who promotes good music from the past and present, we feel you are missing a huge market for proper songs about things that matter to us.
We'd like you to listen to the current album 'No Going Back' and rediscover the thrill of hearing something you want to play until it wears out!! Then share that feeling with your listeners.
Thank you

Surely a place can be found on your playlist for a band of 35+ years standing who still regularly sell out venues around the UK and wider afield and are still lyrically relevant without losing their ability to write great tunes.
While some songs may be too 'political' corridor general broadcast, the new title song is about determination and resolve. It was written about depression but works any situation you've decided not to repeat, be that an addiction or lifestyle or behaviour. A brilliant song empowering your willpower. Why won't you play that?
I've repeatedly sent in requests for SLF to be played at various times, but without success. I can only think your "extensive" music library isn't as extensive as you make out!!
Absolute Radio is a breath of fresh air in the UK. You play Punk often, but are missing out on the very best of it. And so in turn are your listeners. I'm not expecting to hear their more " controversial " songs, but they do have 37yrs of a back catalogue to concider. Hanx !
SLF are the best band to have played on earth EVER !! Fantastic worldwide fanbase. They write and perform music & words with true meaning. They have had a huge influence on my life and my 2 sons (the next generation) are both big fans too. Best Played LOUD !!!
You got to play S. L. F if not for their. New stuff then for there history thank you
Come on guys. Please

I've seen SLF about 50 times in my life now, there is always a great crowd of all ages. Just check out their back catalogue, how can you ignore their obvious appeal? They tour year in year out and never disappoint. Why are they ignored?????
