UK industrial icons Cabaret Voltaire have announced a new live album along with the rest of the dates for their final North American tour.
The album, But What Time Is It Really?, will be out May 22 and was recorded live in 2025 across various UK shows with founding members Stephen Mallinder and Chris Watson, along with Eric Random and Oliver Harrap. There are 10 tracks on the vinyl, including classics like “Nag Nag Nag,” “Crackdown,” and “Do Right,” and the CD adds another six. You can listen to “Nag Nag Nag” below.
The newly announced dates of Cabaret Voltaire’s North American tour happen in the fall and include the Southwest, Midwest and East Coast. This tour will sadly not include Chris Watson, who is unavailable, with Tara Busch from ISM filling in. They’ll play NYC’s Knockdown Center on September 25, and tickets for all just-announced dates go on sale Friday, February 20 at 10 AM local time. All dates are listed below.
