Soft Cell - _The Rainbow Room_ (Official Video)

Pre-order 'Danceteria', Soft Cell's sixth and final studio album, released 25th September via Republic of Music - https://republicofmusic.lnk.to/Dancet... Soft Cell release new single 'The Rainbow Room', a moving ballad set in early 80s New York, video by Vicki Bennett, and taken from 'Danceteria', the sixth and final studio album from Marc Almond and Dave Ball, will be released on the 25th September 2026 via Republic of Music. "The record is epic and intense — like the best of the group’s material gathered for one last hurrah" The Sunday Times "An ode to the experience of transfiguration on the dancefloor, it’s an uplifting slice of synth-fuelled disco." CLASH "a joyous, celebratory burst of disco pop" Classic Pop "minimalistic electropop at its finest" FLOOD 'The Rainbow Room' is a stunning atmospheric electronic song paying homage to love, loss and friendship, all wrapped up in an extraordinary moment with vistas to match. Marc talks about the semi-autobiographical nature of 'The Rainbow Room, taken from August's cover feature interview with John Earls at Classic Pop: "And I did celebrate my birthday - my 21st or 22nd - at The Rainbow Room in the Rockefeller Center... The story of that view is true, too, I really did think: "Imagine falling down there" at the time. It was important to mention the Twin Towers, to acknowledge that this song about the future had a poignancy to it, knowing how dark that future would become." 'The Rainbow Room' continues to showcase the heavier, moodier side of forthcoming new album 'Danceteria', following on from the previous track 'The Space Inside' and its majestic vocals from Marc Almond and epic ravey synths from Dave Ball.
