Intruder is Numan’s 18th solo studio album and follows 2017’s Savage: Songs From A Broken World. Hitting No.2 in the UK Top 40 album charts, Savage became his highest charting set in almost forty years. That commercial success was complemented with wide-reaching critical acclaim from Mojo, The Quietus, Rolling Stone and more.
Whereas Savage depicted earth as a barren wasteland in which humanity and culture had been largely crushed by the effects of global warming, Intruder presents a fresh but complementary narrative. It’s a philosophical examination of a potential future apocalypse: the planet can only survive by purging its inhabitants.
