Beloved rock-pop stalwarts Cheap Trick have released a new single, “Light Up the Fire,” ahead of the lineup’s 20th studio album, In Another World, which arrives April 9. Produced by Julian Raymond, it’s Cheap Trick’s first new LP since 2017’s double-header of We’re All Alright! and Christmas Christmas.
A limited-edition picture disc of In Another World will be available exclusively via Target.
“This band is held together by music,” singer Robin Zander said in a statement. “It’s the super glue that keeps us writing and putting records out. The reason we started the band in the first place was to tour and write songs and put records out. If all that went away, there would be no point then, would there?”

Cheap Trick, founded in Rockford, Illinois in 1974, has a spate of ubiquitous hits, including “California Man,” “Dream Police,” “Surrender,” “I Want You To Want Me,” and their #1 hit “The Flame.”
