YUNGBLUD has announced ‘Idols II’, the second installment of his album ‘Idols’

YUNGBLUD has announced ‘Idols II’, the second installment of his album ‘Idols’.

The release will arrive digitally this Friday, 20th February, with physical copies available for pre-order the same day via Island Records/Locomotion.

Recorded during the same sessions as its predecessor, ‘Idols II’ expands on the record’s widescreen, ambitious sound and introspective themes. It features six previously unheard tracks, including new single ‘Suburban Requiem’.

The release also includes the YUNGBLUD and The Smashing Pumpkins version of the Grammy-nominated single ‘Zombie’.

“This is it. The second chapter of the Idols story,” YUNGBLUD explains. “Part 1 was a journey that helped me reclaim my identity from the darkest position I’ve ever been in my life. Part 2 is about realising that I am alive, that I am real, that this journey that I’ve been on didn’t kill me.”

The announcement follows the success of ‘Idols’, which became YUNGBLUD’s third consecutive UK Number 1 album.
