Early Sunday, Peter Gabriel shared the latest track from his upcoming album, i/o. It's the "Dark-Side" mix of "Road to Joy," a companion recording to a composition the legendary musician first debuted in early June.
Gabriel has been promoting for a few months now in connection to the lunar calendar, and thus far it's revealed a pretty intriguing set of new material to add to his vast catalog of solo releases.

Explained an email release to Peter Gabriel fans:

It was very different to this, but it still had some bits, which I may still explore, but it was actually the starting point for coming back to this song."
