Culture Club are back with new music.

The Grammy Award winners sold in excess of 100 million singles and over 50 million albums, and were one of the biggest pop bands of the 1980s.

They achieved seven straight Top 10 hits in the UK, nine Top 10 singles in the USA and nine Top 20 singles in Australia. They had number 1 singles in over a dozen countries and multi platinum album sales across the world, and were first group since The Beatles to have three Top Ten hits in America from a debut album.

They were also the first group in music history to have an album certified diamond in Canada. The band consists of Mikey Craig (bass guitar), Roy Hay (guitar and keyboards), Jon Moss (drums and percussion) and flamboyant front man Boy George (lead vocals.)

And now the original line-up are set to release their first single in over 15 years. More Than Silence will be released by the band’s label, Different Man Music, via Kobalt Label Services, and will be available to buy from Tuesday, November 4th.

The single received its first play earlier today on Ken Bruce’s Radio 2 show, and is taken from the forthcoming new studio album, Tribes, recorded with producer Youth (Paul McCartney, The Verve, Embrace) and due for release early 2015.

On More Than Silence, George explains “Artists make complicated lovers because they always need an audience. I always say ‘silence is the loudest sound in the universe’. A blue moon in a lonely sky.

“Roy always wanted to rock out a little. I think we finally created a song which gives him the opportunity.”

Toto Returns To Melbourne #Review

Toto’s 2025 setlist focuses on the heritage of the band. The setlist was interesting. Compared to how it was curated for Australia in 2019 this time Toto kept to the albums of the 1900s. Mind you, there were no complaints from the audience for doing that. The biggest hits came from those early years.
