Following a triumphant return to the spotlight in November 2024 with "Let The Flowers Grow" (HERE), his duet with Boy George, original post-punk icon Peter Murphy today released "Swoon", a brand-new single that also serves as the perfect Valentine's Day gift for his fans.
Percussive and expansive, "Swoon" is a superlative slice of synth-punk/funk that captures Murphy's voice in all its sonorous glory. Produced by Youth, the song is the first track released from Murphy's new album, Silver Shade, due on 9 May. Recorded at Youth's studio in Spain, the album is the long-awaited follow-up to Lion, which the pair worked on a decade ago. A symbiotic relationship born of artistic collaboration, Murphy states that "this new album is as powerful as any of my work to date". Link
