Soft Cell were the pairing of vocalist Marc Almond and instrumentalist Dave Ball. After their 80s peak the pair reformed in 2022 to release new music, but sadly Ball died in 2025.

It’s now been announced that the final album the pair were working on will be released. It’s called Danceteria.

Marc explained “’Danceteria’ is a love letter to New York in the early ’80s. The time we spent in New York – where we recorded our first three albums – shaped us both as artists and people. To celebrate this period is a fitting farewell to Dave Ball and the final Soft Cell studio album.”

Here’s the title track. He’s not wrong about 80s clubbing.
