Rainy Sunday Afternoon, the new album from The DivineComedy will be released September 19th 2025 on DivineComedy Records.
Recorded at Abbey Road last autumn, Rainy Sunday Afternoon is TheDivine Comedy’s thirteenth album and their first studio album since 2019’sUK top 5 Office Politics. The band’s last release was 2022’s Best Ofcompilation Charmed Life which also reached 5 in the UK album charts. Thebands Neil Hannon most recently wrote the original songs for the WarnerBros blockbuster Wonka.
Neil says: My musical output is, for better or worse, a representation of mypersonality. A good chunk of that personality revels in the rumbumptious;celebrates the silly. And I made ample use of that for the Wonka songs. Ihave though, like everyone, a darker, more melancholy side. And for onereason or another it has been much in evidence of late. I needed to use thisalbum as an outlet for those feelings. To work through some stuff. Mortality;memories; relationships; political and social upheaval. Everyone should getto make an orchestral pop album once in a while. It should be available onthe NHS.
Album formats will include: a black biovinyl LP in a gatefold sleeve; a limitededition dark green biovinyl LP in a gatefold sleeve; a standard 11 track CD ingatefold packaging and an expanded deluxe limited edition CD in gatefoldpackaging which comes with the bonus disc Live in Paris & London
