 The groundbreaking, enduringly influential artist Mark Stewart presents his eighth solo album, ‘The Fateful Symmetry’, a vital new masterwork completed shortly before his untimely passing in April 2023.
 Across an illustrious career of pioneering music with The Pop Group, Mark Stewart & The Maffia and as a solo artist, Stewart has produced a seminal body of work, galvanized by the DIY ideals of punk, radical politics, protest movements, theory, philosophy, technology, art and poetry. With ‘The Fateful Symmetry’, Stewart’s abiding legacy as a “revered countercultural musician” (The Guardian) is sustained, with an album as fearless and visionary as his best work.
 Testifying to his prolific, unrelenting ingenuity, and signifying one of his most intimate, empowering statements, ‘The Fateful Symmetry’ is an astonishingly expressive and innovative record; a fierce and beautiful manifesto for a better world. The inimitable, titanic Mark Stewart, never normalized, always extraordinary.
 ‘The Fateful Symmetry’ is released on Mute, Stewart’s long-standing label helmed by old friend and kindred spirit Daniel Miller.
