Dennis DeYoung has announced that the second volume of his farewell album, 26 East: Volume 2, Isle Of Misanthrope, will be released on April 7.
The former Styx frontman also shared the track listing and artwork for the upcoming album.
Speaking about the opening song titled "Hello Goodbye" on Facebook, DeYoung said, "I read an article about Pink Floyd recording at Abbey Road the same time as the Beatles. They met the lads and told them that there would be no Floyd without them. Yet Floyd's music is nothing like the Beatles and neither was Styx's."
"'Hello Goodbye' as I have previously mentioned is not a remake it's all brand new...sorta. It's a tribute to the lads who sent me down this long and winding road that led me to you guys," he added.
All the songs on the album were written by DeYoung. Four of them were co-written with Jim Peterik.
DeYoung promised that he has "plenty more to talk about in the coming weeks concerning each individual song, most likely on my YouTube channel."
