Stop us is you’ve heard this one before: Chromatics are set to release the album Dear Tommy. That’s right, the same Dear Tommy that gained legendary status through never being released, despite a series of singles and false starts over the years dating all the way back in 2014 when it was announced as the follow-up to their highly acclaimed 2012 release Kill for Love. Recently, Chromatics singer Ruth Radlet popped up on social media wearing a shirt mocking the record’s MIA status.

The latest out of the Italians Do It Better camp is that Dear Tommy will honestly and truly be released. The release date? One step at a time, buddy. While there’s no firm date to expect the album, we have a track list, a cryptic message from Johnny Jewel himself, and a new song from the set: “Teacher.” See it all below.
