Underworld's Eleventh Studio Album Strawberry Hotel on LP.

Strawberry Hotel, the eleventh album from Underworld (and first since 2019's epic, experimental Draft project), features the singles, “and the colour red” and “denver luna,” as well as “Black Poppies,” a celestial love song, a hymn to the universe and to boundless, positive change. Ambient and beatless, “Black Poppies” is a celebration of full dancefloors and the beauty of life itself.

Here, gleaming tensile techno forms clean, straight lines while scratchy acoustic guitars scuff up edges to produce ghostly audio. Poetry is snatched from the overhead, removed from the overheard; words borrowed from the ether are spun into dizzying new shapes, sometimes reappearing in new settings, twisted back to front, side to side. Each track a very different room – some soundtracked by little more than metronomic kick drum and robotic voice, others deep in layer upon layer of melody and euphoric noise – and each room unmistakably, uniquely Underworld. Available on black vinyl in gatefold jacket with printed sleeve.
