The record will mark the sixth solo album from the Grammy-nominated singer and current Queen vocalist, and is set for release on July 10 on his own label and distributed via The Orchard. Pre-order it here .
Set to feature his signature powerhouse vocals, the new album will see Lambert lean more into ‘90s alternative and electronica than ever before, and strive to blend genres in a unique way to capture a timeless feel.
Today (Friday May 8), he has released a new single from the record: ‘Eat U Alive’. The track centres around an anthemic, high-energy chorus and captures an insatiable, passionate feel throughout.
“‘EAT U ALIVE’ is the perfect primer into my next musical chapter,” the singer explained. “I wanted to create songs that fit into a world reminiscent of the music that made a formative impact on me in the 90s and early 00’s. Nine Inch Nails , Björk , Prince , Muse , Goldfrapp , Daft Punk , George Michael , Massive Attack and The Crystal Method are just a few who inspired the sound.”
“The album explores both the light and shade of life and the razor’s edge that separates a positive experience from a negative one,” Lambert continued. “I hope these songs connect with anyone who has been through the confusing but necessary process of self-acceptance. There was a real liberation in acknowledging my own weaknesses and strengths.
“Accepting the bad and the good all together. Revolutionary for someone who always thought of himself as a perfectionist and idealist.”
The new material marks the first original music from the singer since his critically-acclaimed Broadway debut in Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club two years ago. He followed up that role with Jesus Christ Superstar at the Hollywood Bowl in August 2025 where he starred as ‘Judas’ alongside Cynthia Erivo as ‘Jesus.’
Lambert teased new music on the way with NME earlier this year, when he performed as part of the ‘Trans Mission’ show at Wembley Arena, which raised funds for non-profit organisations Good Law Project and Not A Phase.
Backstage, he said that there was nothing new from Queen on the way, but did share plans for new solo material – saying that he had been working on his “own project for the past year-and-a-half”.
“There is definitely new music on the horizon. I can’t give too many details yet about what that is, but it’s a whole new situation, so I’m excited to unveil that soon,” he said, adding he was planning on sharing it at some point “in 2026”.
