Description

Underworld announce their eleventh album, Strawberry Hotel, released via Virgin Music Group.

Gleaming tensile techno forms clean, straight lines, while scratchy acoustic guitars add a raw edge, producing ghostly audio. Poetry is snatched from the air and spun into dizzying new shapes, with words sometimes reappearing in new settings, twisted and transformed. Each track feels like a different room—some minimal, driven by metronomic beats and robotic voices, others layered with melodies and euphoric noise—yet all unmistakably Underworld. Rick Smith and Karl Hyde offer only one piece of advice: “Please don’t shuffle.”

Strawberry Hotel features the singles “and the colour red” and “denver luna,” alongside “Black Poppies,” an ambient, beatless love song and hymn to positive change. This album, their first since 2019’s experimental Drift project, celebrates the beauty of life and dancefloors alike.

Available to pre-order now.

Released on Friday 25th October 2024.
