PETER GABRIEL‘s 10th solo LP (in 46 years),
named i/o is out this Friday, December 1st.

Press statement: “12 tracks of grace, gravity and great beauty that provide welcome confirmation of not only Peter’s ongoing ability to write stop-you-in-your-tracks songs but also of that thrilling voice, still perfectly, delightfully intact. Throughout the album the intelligent and thoughtful – often thought-provoking – songs tackle life and the universe.”

Album artwork

PETER GABRIEL has finally revealed the release date and the different
formats (CD/vinyl/Blu-ray) for his (only) 10th LP in 46 years. It’ll land in
time for Xmas on December 1st.

More info and pre-order facilities here.

Press statement: “12 tracks of grace, gravity and great beauty that provide welcome confirmation of not only Peter’s ongoing ability to write stop-you-in-your-tracks songs but also of that thrilling voice, still perfectly, delightfully intact. Throughout the album the intelligent and thoughtful – often thought-provoking – songs tackle life and the universe.

Our connection to the world around us – ‘I’m just a part of everything’ Peter sings on title track i/o – is a recurring motif, but so too the passing of time, mortality and grief, alongside such themes as injustice, surveillance and the roots of terrorism. But this is not a solemn record. While reflective, the mood is never despondent; i/o is musically adventurous, often joyous and ultimately full of hope, topped off as it is, by the rousingly optimistic closing song, Live and Let Live.”

Gabriel already shared 10 tracks out of 12. Play them all here.

PETER GABRIEL Shares Piano Ballad ‘PLAYING FOR TIME’ From Upcoming Album

Posted on by JL

New striking strokes

8 March 2023


(press photo)

PETER GABRIEL has his new 9th album, named i/o out soon
(no exact release date yet) following Scratch My Back from 2013.

So far he gave us lead single Panopticum
and follow-up The Court, two funky thrills.

And here’s #3. It’s called PLAYING FOR TIME.
An almost 6-and-a-half-minute piano ballad,
joined near the end by a strings orchestra.


Single artwork

Gabriel: “It is more of a personal song about how you assemble memories and whether
we are prisoners of time or whether that is something that can actually free us. I do think it’s good to push yourself towards more bold or interesting experiences because then you will have richer memories to feed you when you get to my age. You also get taught by every meaningful experience that you go through.”

Waking Up With New Funky PETER GABRIEL Single ‘THE COURT’

Posted on by JL

Works faster than caffeine

6 February 2022


The single’s artwork

PETER GABRIEL will launch new, 9th, solo album, baptized
i/o following his previous one Scratch My Back from 2013,
on 23 February.

Following lead single Panopticum, the former Genesis frontman
just shared a second cut of the longplayer. It’s called THE COURT .


Press photo GB – FB

Peter Gabriel: “I had this idea for ‘the court will rise’ chorus, so it became a free-form, impressionistic lyric that connected to justice, but there’s a sense of urgency there,” said the former Genesis singer about the track. A lot of life is a struggle between order and chaos and in some senses the justice or legal system is something that we impose to try and bring some element of order to the chaos. That’s often abused, it’s often unfair and discriminatory but at the same time it’s probably an essential part of a civilised society. But we do need to think sometimes about how that is actually realised and employed.”

Funky stuff.
