Blondie's first new album in nine years slated for February

High Noon, the twelfth studio album and first collection of new material from Blondie in nine years, will be released February 26 through BMG. First single ‘Spectral Eyes’ is out now.

Pre-order/save High Noon HERE. Listen to ‘Spectral Eyes’ HERE.

For High Noon, Blondie is joined by collaborators such as Johnny Marr, Glen Matlock, Zach Condon of Beirut, Jess Wolfe and Holly Laessig of Lucius and others. It also marks the final recording of Blondie co-founding drummer Clem Burke.

At the outset of recording, the band had no way of knowing the significance the album would later carry. Following Burke’s passing in 2025, the record has taken on additional meaning for the band and serves as a document of one of rock music’s longest-running creative partnerships.

“This album is classic Blondie — an amalgamation of all our different influences and eras into something new,” says Debbie Harry. “This music feels grounded in the present, shaped by who we are and how we're living now.”

“It’s been a long, strange ride, and somehow here we are with another Blondie album,” says Chris Stein. I’m not sure what the fuck I’m supposed to say at this point, except that we're incredibly grateful for all your support over the years."

‘Spectral Eyes,’ was written by Johnny Marr, who also contributes guitar to the song. 

Sessions for High Noon began in 2022, with the band recording in New York City alongside producer John Congleton [St. Vincent, The War On Drugs, The Killers], who previously worked with Blondie on their critically acclaimed 2017 album Pollinator. 

Much of the material was tracked together in the same room, reflecting the collaborative approach that has long defined the band. David Wrench [Florence and the Machine, Jamie xx, Frank Ocean, Bon Iver] later joined for additional production and mixing.

The visual world of High Noon was conceived by artist and director Rob Roth, who has collaborated creatively with Blondie for over 25 years, dating back to 1999’s No Exit, in partnership with creative studio and production powerhouse Untold Studios. There will be an upcoming short film directed by Roth featuring music from High Noon.

Album formats include black LP, CD, limited-edition crystal clear ecovinyl (available at select retailers). The official Blondie stores will also offer an exclusive limited-edition red vinyl and cassette, along with merchandise bundles.

Track Listing:

1. Spectral Eyes
2. Heartbreak Kid
3. Come Back Home
4. Tambo Tambo
5. Man Who Had No Face
6. The End
7. Little Metal Drummer
8. Sleepwalking
9. Whistle Into The Wind
10. Antifreeze

Out now: 'A Man from the Future' - Pet Shop Boys' concept album about Alan Turing

Pet Shop Boys’ new album 'A man from the future,' a collaboration with Alan Turing biographer Andrew Hodges is out now on LP, CD, Blu-ray audio and digitally via Parlophone Records. The new musical composition includes songs, spoken word and electronic and orchestral music, and explores eight significant chapters in the life and death of Alan Turing.

Alongside music and lyrics by Pet Shop Boys is a narration, spoken by actress Juliet Stevenson, taken from Andrew Hodges’ book Alan Turing: the Enigma, which has been edited and extended by Neil Tennant and Andrew Hodges. The music is a combination of electronics and strings with string arrangements by Sven Helbig performed by the Manchester Camerata Octet. Boys from Manchester Grammar School choir also sing on four tracks. The album was produced by Pet Shop Boys and Sven Helbig.

The eight tracks explore the life, death and influence of the pioneering British mathematician and cryptanalyst who laid the foundations of modern computing. Turing’s story unfolds chronologically from his school days, with his initial interest in mathematics and science and his realisation of his sexuality, to his university days at Cambridge, his leading role working for the British Government unlocking the German Enigma machine’s encrypted messages during World War II, his place in the invention of the digital computer, his prediction of Artificial Intelligence, his trial and conviction for a homosexual relationship, and then his suicide in 1954.

The last track features a passage recorded by former Prime Minister Gordon Brown from his 2009 statement acknowledging Turing’s ground-breaking work in helping the UK win the war and apologising for the inhumane treatment he received when he was convicted under homophobic laws, which is followed by the posthumous royal pardon granted by Queen Elizabeth II in 2013. The final words evoke the significance of his work for today’s digital world, and leave the listener with questions for the future.

Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe originally wrote the work with Andrew Hodges in 2012-13 and performed it with the BBC Concert Orchestra and the BBC Singers at a late-night BBC Prom in July 2014 at the Royal Albert Hall. Over a decade later they decided to revise the piece to give it more of an electronic emphasis and Sven Helbig suggested reworking his orchestrations in a more intimate arrangement for eight string players. Andrew Hodges suggested updates to the spoken text.

Pet Shop Boys say: “Our motive in creating this work was to make a musical memorial to Alan Turing who gave so much to his country and the world and was rewarded for it by being prosecuted for his sexuality. Alan made a massive contribution to the defeat of Germany in World War II and was a pioneer of computing, imagining a world with intelligent computers. He also looked forward to a time when being gay would be accepted as normal. In both his professional and private lives, he was ahead of his time.”

Track listing:

1. Natural wonders every child should know

2. He dreamed of machines
3. The Enigma
4. Other ranks
5. The memory and the control
6. The trial
7. Only in his death
8. A man from the future

Joan Jett news: 'I Love Rock 'N Roll' expanded reissue

On December 11, Joan Jett and the Blackhearts will release I Love Rock ‘N Roll + The Shadow Album (Limited Edition 45th Anniversary). Available as a two-record vinyl set and a two-CD set, the collection pairs the band’s studio album with newly unearthed 1980 recordings.

Ahead of the anniversary collection’s release, I Love Rock ‘N Roll: The Shadow Album will be available November 27 in the US, Canada and UK as a standalone Record Store Day Black Friday exclusive vinyl LP featuring the exclusive bonus track “Black Leather (Live).” Preorders for the anniversary collection open November 27.

Recorded in 1980 at New York’s ODO Studios, The Shadow Album captures early versions of the songs that became I Love Rock ‘N Roll. The band had played the material on the road for more than a year before booking a one-hour studio session and performing the set live. Presumed lost for decades, the tapes were found by members of the Blackheart family and restored by Thom Panunzio and Ken Dahlinger.

The limited-edition 45th-anniversary collection’s two-record vinyl set comes in a gatefold jacket, and the two-CD set comes in a Digipak. Its artwork was created by Shepard Fairey.

The anniversary celebrations will also include a collection of jewelry and belts created with London-based designer Hannah Martin. The collection celebrates 45 years of Bad Reputation and I Love Rock ‘N Roll.

Other fashion collaborations include curated vintage T-shirts and new designs from Kelly Cole, along with knitwear created with The Elder Statesman. Additionally, Epiphone recently introduced the Joan Jett Olympic Special guitar in a third colorway, Vintage Sunburst, available now.
