Release Date 10/07/2026 Format LP Black Label Mute Catalogue Number LSTUMM517 Mark Stewart’s eight solo album The Fateful Symmetry is now available on black vinyl, to be released 17th of July. I have also included the CD units we have in stock, so we can offer both titles to retail, please. The groundbreaking, enduringly influential artist Mark Stewart presents his eighth solo album ‘The Fateful Symmetry’, a vital masterwork completed shortly before his untimely passing in April 2023. Across an illustrious career of pioneering music with The Pop Group, Mark Stewart & The Maffia and as a solo artist, Stewart has produced a seminal body of work, galvanized by the DIY ideals of punk, radical politics, protest movements, theory, philosophy, technology, art and poetry. With ‘The Fateful Symmetry’, Stewart’s abiding legacy as a ‘revered countercultural musician’ (The Guardian) is sustained, with an album as fearless and visionary as his best work. Testifying to his prolific, unrelenting ingenuity, and signifying one of his most intimate, empowering statements, ‘The Fateful Symmetry’ is an astonishingly expressive and innovative record; a fierce and beautiful manifesto for a better world. The inimitable, titanic Mark Stewart, never normalized, always extraordinary. Following the sold-out red vinyl edition, Mute has been requested by fans to press a black vinyl edition. Arriving on the one year anniversary of the album’s original release, reminding us of Mark's unique and enduring talent.
