‘Rainy Sunday Afternoon’, the new album from The Divine
Comedy will be released September 19th 2025 on Divine
Comedy Records.
Recorded at Abbey Road last autumn, ‘Rainy Sunday Afternoon’ is The
Divine Comedy's thirteenth album and their first studio album since 2019's
UK top 5 ‘Office Politics’. The band's last release was 2022's Best Of
compilation ‘Charmed Life’ which also reached 5 in the UK album charts. The
band’s Neil Hannon most recently wrote the original songs for the Warner
Bros blockbuster ‘Wonka.’
Neil says: “My musical output is, for better or worse, a representation of my
personality. A good chunk of that personality revels in the rumbumptious;
celebrates the silly. And I made ample use of that for the Wonka songs. I
have though, like everyone, a darker, more melancholy side. And for one
reason or another it has been much in evidence of late. I needed to use this
album as an outlet for those feelings. To work through some stuff. Mortality;
memories; relationships; political and social upheaval. Everyone should get
to make an orchestral pop album once in a while. It should be available on
the NHS.“
Album formats will include: a black biovinyl LP in a gatefold sleeve; a limited
edition dark green biovinyl LP in a gatefold sleeve; a standard 11 track CD in
gatefold packaging and an expanded deluxe limited edition CD in gatefold
packaging which comes with the bonus disc ‘Live in Paris & London’
The band remastered and re-released their entire back catalogue in 2020.
The campaign culminated in residencies in London and Paris in 2022 where
they played ten albums live over 5 nights in each city. Deluxe editions of
Rainy Sunday Afternoon will include the bonus live album ‘Live in Paris &
London’ - deep cuts and fan favourites taken from those landmark shows.
