Yungblud Will Release Second Half Of His Grammy-Nominated Album 'Idols' This Friday

On Wednesday (Feb. 18), Yungblud announced that he is releasing Idols II on Friday (Feb. 20) completing his double album project that began with 2025's Grammy-nominated Idols. The seven-track sequel includes six new songs and a reimagined version of his Rock & Alternative Airplay chart-topping single, "Zombie," featuring The Smashing Pumpkins. Yungblud, born Dominic Harrison, explained "Part 1 was a journey that helped me reclaim my identity from the darkest position I've ever been in my life. Part 2 is about realizing that I am alive, that I am real, that this journey that I've been on didn't kill me." The original Idols earned Grammy nominations for Best Rock Album and Best Rock Song for "Zombie," with Yungblud eventually winning his first ever Grammy for Best Rock Performance for his cover of "Changes" at Ozzy Osbourne's "Back to the Beginning" farewell concert. The Doncaster musician has notched four UK No. 1 albums, with two coming in 2025 including Idols and the collaborative EP, One More Time, with Aerosmith.
