GEP recently announced the release of Dominion, the long-awaited new album from IQ, the first new music in 6 years following-up 2019’s Resistance. Dominion will be released on March 28th, 2025. Today, the band have released the video for the first single titled “No Dominion”.
Peter Nicholls: “Hot on the heels of Resistance’ six years ago! Yes, it’s been a long time coming (we couldn’t be accused of rushing these things!) but we’re confident this album is really strong and has been worth the wait. To be releasing a new IQ album in our 44th year feels genuinely exciting”.
Mike Holmes: “We did actually write a lot more material for Dominion, but this choice of songs (and the running order) feels like a cohesive album to me. Even in this age of streaming individual songs I still approach a new album with a ‘side one’ and ‘side two’ thing in my head and the selection and placement of songs for Dominion just feels like a classic album should (I know, I’m using ‘old people’ speak!). “The original intention was to have a second disc of other material but that would have taken a lot longer to put together and we figured six years was quite enough. It does mean that there’s already quite a bit of stuff ready for the next one.”
Track listing:
1.The Unknown Door
2.One of Us
3.No Dominion
4.Far From Here
5.Never Land
Dominion will be available in a six panel digi-sleeve CD with 16-page booklet and a one-disc coloured vinyl album in a gatefold sleeve.
