Synth-punk/darkwave artist N8NOFACE has announced his new album, slated for release on October 16, 2026. Tomorrow’s World (Stones Throw) is fully produced by Dave Sitek (TV On The Radio, Yeah Yeah Yeahs) and includes an esteemed cast of collaborators, with contributions coming from Hudson Mohawke, Angélica Garcia, and Nick Zinner.

Tomorrow’s World’s title is taken from the British TV show of the same name, which explored emerging technology and science. N8 discovered a clip of Kraftwerk appearing on the program and learned how they broke the band to a wider audience. It felt like the perfect name for the album, which he says  “Imagines what the punks and the street kids might be listening to in 2077.”

N8 was raised in Tucson, AZ, near the Sonoran border in a world of drug muling and illegal border crossings, surrounded by hustlers, incarcerated friends, and a family affected by alcoholism. N8 himself spent seventeen years battling addiction, fearing that sobriety might rob him of the very thing that made him an artist. Now, he pours the energy he once spent on addiction into his music.

By the time Dave Sitek called to collaborate, N8 had already spent nearly two decades as an underground artist building a singular body of work, which earned him champions from Travis Barker to the late Virgil Abloh. He collaborated with Eyedress and The Bloody Beetroots, performed alongside Cypress Hill, and joined Limp Bizkit’s Loserville arena tour in the US and Europe.

Still, N8 struggled  to accept the love he’s received. “Put me in a jail cell and I’m calm as fuck,” he says. “Put me around artists and I’m shaking in my boots.” He traces that anxiety back to growing up as an artistic outlier, whose friends and family would tell him to “shut that shit off” whenever he played Daniel Johnston or Suicide. 

On “I Hope It’s Ok”, N8 addresses that feeling of being on the outside. He says: “I was freestyling and then I just started to let out things I thought might not be so normal to others, but that I live with and feel.” The song lands with a music video directed by collaborator and close friend Eyedress.
