(July 9th, 2025) - Soulwax, consisting of brothers David and Stephen Dewaele, announces their first studio album in seven years All Systems Are Lying due October 17th via DEEWEE / Because Music. The announcement arrives alongside a brand new double A-side single: the album’s title track “All Systems Are Lying” and its counterpart, “Run Free."
Described by the brothers as “a rock album made without any electric guitars,” All Systems Are Lying was built entirely from modular synths, live drums, tape machines and processed vocals. It’s a fractured mirror held up to modern society on the brink — where truth is distorted by filters, algorithms and noise. “We wanted to capture the feeling of a band playing electronic instruments — live, loud and loose” shared David & Stephen. “This record is the result of that experiment”
Lead track “All Systems Are Lying” opens like a corrupted transmission — glitching, taut and full of warning. “Run Free” flips the tension into something driving and euphoric, propelled by rhythm and release - One leans into the energy of a live band, the other into the pulse of the dancefloor — two sides of the same Soulwax coin.
The duo has spent more than two decades quietly building a creative universe: a band (Soulwax), djs (2manydjs), a record label (DEEWEE), and a sound system (Despacio, alongside James Murphy). They are widely regarded as one of the most forward-thinking remix and production teams of the 21st century — known for their meticulous studio craft, boundary-breaking live shows, and projects that challenge what a band can be.
Having toured constantly throughout 2024 with both headline shows and multiple festival dates (where eagle-eyed fans may have spotted early glimpses of new album material) this year, Soulwax have already delivered blistering sets at Kappa Futur (Turin) and Rock Werchter (Belgium). They now continue their summer run with appearances at Junction 2 in London (July 27th) and Lokerse Feesten in Belgium (August 2nd), bringing their high-intensity live show — complete with three drummers — to more festival stages across Europe.
