Frank Turner has never been one to stand still, and now he’s looking back on a decade of relentless creativity with the announcement of The Next Ten Years Triple Vinyl Set on 7 November 2025.
Serving as the sequel to the much-coveted The First Ten Years Box Set, which was released in 2015, the collection will dive deep into Frank’s vault, showcasing rare and bonus material curated by Frank himself, spanning the studio albums of 2015 to 2024 in a 3LP release. Fans will uncover everything from B-sides and live sessions from the eras of Positive Songs For Negative People, Be More Kind, No Man’s Land, and FTHC; as well as a collection of covers, radio sessions, acoustic versions and artist collaboration tracks; some previously not officially released, and many of which are here on vinyl for the first time.
The 3LP clear vinyl discs will be housed in a unique gatefold with a hinged middle sleeve, featuring die-cut panels and embossed titling on the cover. The printed inner sleeves showcase collages made from hundreds of unseen photos and tour passes, which creates slightly different varieties of the cover image through the die-cut panels, depending which inner sleeve side is placed in the first pocket. Side B of LP3 contains a reverse etching visible through the clear disc. Each sleeve will be individually inkjet numbered up to 4000, making this a true collectible. Full details on the tracklisting below.
Speaking about the release, Frank shares: “It’s been a decade since I last gathered all my non studio album music together for a proper release. Outside of my frontline albums, there’s so much more music, and I want it to be easy for everyone to find. B-sides, covers, sessions, alternative versions – it’s lovely to have it all in one place”.
To mark the announcement, Frank is sharing a cover of Janis Ian’s ‘Better Times Will Come’’. On how the cover came about, Frank shares: “A few years back, the legendary Janis Ian hit me up out of the blue. Seeing her name in my inbox was mind-blowing – I’m a big fan – and the message kept up the crazy – she asked me to cover one of her songs, alongside a host of other artists, to explore song interpretation, as well as to spread the timely message of “Better Times”. I gave it my best shot and was pretty pleased with the result – as was Janis. It’s lovely to have this song on vinyl and to be giving it (and its words) a wider audience.”

The announcement arrives during yet another high-stamina year for Frank. Following his landmark sold-out 3000th show at London’s Alexandra Palace in February this year, the punk-rock road-warrior has continued his trademark marathon touring schedule. After a busy summer tearing through UK and European festivals, Frank is heading back out on the road once more joining longtime friends Dropkick Murphys for a major European arena tour in October and November. To close out 2025, Frank is reuniting with his old band Million Dead for a UK tour in December, with the London Electric Ballroom already sold out. Full details on Frank’s live dates are detailed on his website here.
