There is typically talk of a ‘second coming’, but much less, if at all, of a ‘third coming’. However, that’s what Perrett’s third album, The Cleansing, epitomises – set for release on November 1st via Domino Recording Co.

There is typically talk of a ‘second coming’, but much less, if at all, of a ‘third coming’. However, that’s what Perrett’s third album, The Cleansing, epitomises – set for release on November 1st via Domino Recording Co. This week, Perrett has shared the lead single and opening track, “I Wanna Go With Dignity”.
“I Wanna Go With Dignity” is a tight three minutes and 25 seconds laced with Perrett’s deadpan wit and alarming honesty, marking the start of a new era, energy, and approach. Alongside his trusted team of sons Jamie (guitar/production) and Peter Jr (bass), plus members of his live band, Perrett is assisted by a roster of starry guests including Johnny Marr, Bobby Gillespie, Fontaines D.C.’s Carlos O’Connell, and Dream Wife guitarist Alice Go.
Perrett’s uniquely narcotic and alluring melodies, gorgeous South London drawl, and ravishing rock dynamic are now allied to a wider span of musical arrangements and lyrical concerns – touching on themes of art, addiction, ageing, social media, and witch trials, among others.
Check out “I Wanna Go With Dignity” above.
