Underworld will release a new album entitled Drift Songs on October 25th to conclude their year-long Drift series which has seen Rick Smith and Karl Hyde creating and publishing music, film and text pieces in a public recording space.
The aim for Drift Songs is to ‘expand and enhance’ a selection of the recordings which have been laid down since the Drift series began in November 2018. It will be available on single CD, double vinyl and box-set formats, the latter featuring music, visuals and text. The first taste of these updated versions comes in the form of Soniamode, which now includes additional lyrics from writer Aditya Chakrabortty.
Meanwhile, after festival headline spots across Europe at Sonar, Latitude, Roskilde, Down The Rabbit Hole, Rock Werchter and Lollapalooza, Underworld will play their own gigs at the Lotto Arena in Antwerp, Amsterdam’s Ziggo Dome and the Wembley Arena in London between November 22nd-December 7th.
