Produced by Youth (Pink Floyd, The Verve, Crowded House, member of Killing Joke, The Orb, The Firemen) at his studio in Spain, ‘Silver Shade’ is Murphy’s tenth studio album and a long-awaited follow-up to ‘Lion’, which the pair worked on together a decade ago. A symbiotic relationship born of artistic collaboration, Murphy states that “this new album is as powerful as any of my work to date.”

The album title song features another guest vocal contribution from Reznor, while Danny Carey of Tool plays drums. “’Silver Shade’ captures the stillness after the storm; haunted, reflective and raw,” explains Murphy. “It is about a King letting go of his slaves. It’s not about nostalgia or reinvention, but quiet reckoning.”
