The Next Day

Sony Music Australia
The Next Day

Music icon David Bowie has released his first album in 10 years. Recorded with long time collaborator Tony Visconti the album , “The Next Day”, will be Bowie’s 30th studio recording.

Driven by an entirely deeper dynamic than most pop artists, David Bowie inhabits a very special world of extraordinary sounds and endless vision. Unwilling to stay on the treadmill of rock legend and avoiding the descent into ever demeaning and decreasing circles of cliché, Bowie writes and performs what he wants, when he wants.

Bowie, Visconti and a small selection of musicians recorded the album in New York over a two year period in complete secret.

The album cover is an adapted version of Bowies 1977 album “Heroes”. According to it’s designer Jonathan Barnbrook “The Heroes” cover obscured by the white square is about the spirit of great pop or rock music which is ‘of the moment’, forgetting or obliterating the past.”

Tony Visconti noted “if people are looking for classic Bowie they'll find it on this album, if they're looking for innovative Bowie, new directions, they're going to find that on this album too."
