Cheap Trick have unveiled their new single Twelve Gates, a track that sets the stage for the band’s 21st studio album All Washed Up, arriving November 14, 2025 via BMG.

The record will be released digitally, on CD, on standard black vinyl, and as a special limited-edition “Orange Marble” LP, capped at just 1,000 copies through the band’s D2C store.

Bassist Tom Petersson describes Twelve Gates as “one of my favorites on the album,” while singer Robin Zander calls the new record “just one more great album from the best rock band in the world.” Produced by the band with Julian Raymond and mixed by Chris Lord-Alge, All Washed Up was recorded through 2024 in Nashville and Los Angeles.

Formed in Rockford, Illinois in 1973, Cheap Trick combined the melodic instincts of British Invasion pop with the raw punch of American hard rock. The classic lineup of Robin Zander, Rick Nielsen, Tom Petersson, and Bun E. Carlos became one of the most enduring acts of the late ’70s.

Their breakthrough came with 1979’s Cheap Trick at Budokan, a live album recorded in Japan that catapulted I Want You To Want Me and Surrender onto the world stage. Through the 1980s they maintained a steady chart presence, hitting No. 1 in 1988 with The Flame from the album Lap of Luxury.

Cheap Trick’s reputation as both a hit-making band and a ferocious live act carried them into the 21st century, leading to their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2016.

For fans of Queen, John Deacon has long been the enigma of the band, a brilliant musician, masterful songwriter, and humble presence behind the scenes. Since the early 1990s, Deacon has shunned the spotlight, retiring quietly after Freddie Mercury’s death in 1991. But now, years later, he has quietly resurfaced, lending his signature alongside bandmates Roger Taylor and Brian May on a charity auction item, signalling, perhaps, that even the most private of souls can still make their mark in unexpected ways.
