This week, UK electronic pioneer Gary Numan celebrates the release of his 16th studio album, and his first in five years.

Titled Dead Son Rising, the new LP sees Numan working with an assortment of atmospheres, crafted specifically from a slew of demos he’s collected over the years.

“The original ideas behind these songs are now barely visible,” he explains. “In the last nine months, the album has grown into another animal, something more experimental and fluid. It’s ended up being something I’m really very proud of.”

Numan wasn’t alone in the laboratory. For this LP, the singer worked alongside longtime collaborator/producer Ade Fenton, who also plays keyboards on the album. Together, the two pieced together “one of Numan’s most atmospheric albums to date,” according to a press release.
