David Bowie announces new single 'Lazarus'

David Bowie's new single 'Lazarus' taken from the album ★ (pronounced Blackstar) will be released digitally on December 18th and will receive its world premiere on BBC 6 Music's Steve Lamacq show on the 17th.

'Lazarus' is the only track on ★ also featured in the stage production 'Lazarus' written by Bowie and Enda Walsh and directed by Ivo Van Hove, which opened December 7th in New York to great critical acclaim: The New York Times raved "Ice-cold bolts of ecstasy shoot like novas through the glamorous muddle and murk of Lazarus, the great-sounding, great-looking and mind-numbing new musical built around songs by David Bowie," while Rolling Stone hailed Lazarus as a "Surrealistic Tour de Force… milk-swimming, lingerie-sniffing, gin-chugging theater at its finest."
