After years of uncertainty due to Phil Collins’ health issues, legendary rock band Genesis has officially announced a long-awaited reunion. The iconic group, featuring Collins, Tony Banks, and Mike Rutherford, has also confirmed the release of a brand-new album, marking their first studio project in decades.
A Comeback Fans Thought Would Never Happen
Genesis last performed together during their “The Last Domino?” tour in 2021, which many believed would be their farewell due to Collins’ declining health. The singer and drummer has faced severe mobility issues, often performing while seated, and had previously hinted at stepping away from live performances for good. However, in a stunning development, Genesis has announced that not only are they reuniting, but they have also been secretly working on a new album.
“This is something we never thought we’d do again,” Mike Rutherford said in a recent interview. “But the timing felt right, and we’re excited to share new music with the world.”
New Album Release Date Confirmed
Genesis has confirmed that their upcoming album will be released in 2025, with the first single expected to drop later this year. This will be their first studio album since Calling All Stations (1997) and the first with Phil Collins back on vocals since We Can’t Dance (1991). The album is expected to blend the band’s classic progressive rock sound with new influences, showcasing their evolution over the years.
World Tour Rumors Grow Stronger
While the band has not officially announced tour dates, there are strong rumors that Genesis may embark on a world tour to celebrate their comeback. If true, it would be one of the most anticipated tours in rock history, given Collins’ previous struggles with performing live.
Fans worldwide are ecstatic about the news, with many expressing their excitement for one of the biggest reunions in rock music history. More details about the new album and possible tour dates are expected in the coming months. Stay tuned for updates!
