The band are also reportedly gearing up to release their new album 'Arctic Moon' later this year The Chameleons have released their first new music in 23 years, an EP called ‘Where Are You’ – listen to it below. The Manchester post-punk band reunited back in 2021 for a 2022 live album ‘Edge Sessions (Live From The Edge)’. It saw lead singer/bassist Mark Burgess team up with guitarist Reg Smithies, along with guitarist Chris Oliver and drummer Stephen Rice.
The Chameleons would go on to tour, including an opening slot with LA goth band She Wants Revenge . Now, The Chameleons have released their newest EP, titled ‘Where Are You’. Frontman Burgess said of the EP: “It’s exciting to finally be putting out fresh Chameleons material for the first time in over twenty years, although initially I found it quite daunting.
“The question about new music is one I had been asked the most from people coming to the shows, a great many of whom weren’t even born when those records were originally made but nevertheless were excited and inspired by the music enough to catch multiple shows on multiple tours.” Listen to ‘Where Are You’ down below: The EP, which contains its title track along with ‘Endlessly Falling’ and ‘Forever’, is set to be the first taster of their upcoming album ‘Arctic Moon’, reportedly out later this year on Metropolis Records. The album will be The Chameleons’ first without founding drummer John Lever, who died in 2017, and guitaris.
