Peter Gabriel

On the inspiration for his new album, 'i/o', Peter Gabriel tells The Music in an exclusive Australian interview, "Forgetting where we came from has led us to believe we can survive, irrespective of what we do to the planet. It’s becoming very clear how dumb that really was."

An album released 30 years in the making, 'i/o', follows a year in which Peter Gabriel steadily released new songs on each full moon.

Winners will be announced on Friday, 5 May, with Gabriel on the judging panel.

"I can't think of anyone whose job couldn't be done better by Al in 10 years time, maybe five.”

"The first song to be released from i/o is based on an idea I have been working on, to initiate the creation of an infinitely expandable accessible data globe."

Along with bonus live discs, this new edition’s remastering may well let you hear even more in it.
