Robbie Williams Announces New Album ‘Britpop,’ Shares Fiery Single With Black Sabbath’s Tony Iommi

Robbie Williams announced his new album titled 'Britpop' on May 21, 2025, accompanied by the release of the lead single 'Rocket' featuring Tony Iommi.
The album project originated from Williams' desire to craft the record he envisioned following his departure from Take That during the height of the Britpop movement in the mid-1990s.
'Rocket' includes rock influences with Tony Iommi on guitar, and its music video features punk-inspired visuals filmed in London and Birmingham.
Williams will support 'Britpop' with a UK and European tour named the 'Britpop Tour,' starting May 31 in Edinburgh and including major stadium dates in London and elsewhere.
The album and tour reflect Williams’ homage to the golden age of British music in the 1990s, with an upbeat, guitar-driven sound and proud artistic statements from the singer.
