Overview

  • Robbie Williams has revealed 'BRITPOP,' his 13th studio album and first in almost ten years, slated for release this autumn via Columbia Records.
  • The lead single, 'Rocket,' featuring Black Sabbath guitarist Tony Iommi, will be available this Friday, May 23, with an adrenaline-filled rock sound.
  • Williams describes the album as a raw, guitar-heavy, upbeat, and anthemic blend of Britpop and pop, inspired by the golden age of British music in the mid-'90s.
  • The album's cover art pays homage to Williams' iconic red tracksuit look from Glastonbury Festival 1995, where he mingled with Oasis at the height of Britpop.
  • A renamed 'BRITPOP' stadium tour kicks off May 31 in Edinburgh, with dates across the UK, Ireland, and Europe throughout the summer.
