Talking Heads expand Fear of Music on 13 November
Rhino’s release details set the date at 13 November 2026 and identify the package as a 3CD/Blu-ray edition. It contains a new remaster of the original album, rarities and two complete concerts from the album’s tour, alongside new mixes.
The Blu-ray carries high-resolution stereo, 5.1 and Dolby Atmos mixes, plus rare footage from the BBC programme Old Grey Whistle Test. The package also includes a 60-page hardcover book with photographs and liner notes by Will Hermes. The 6LP Super Deluxe Edition and 2LP edition arrive on 13 November 2026.
Talking Heads’ album archive expands around Fear of Music
Rhino identifies Fear of Music as the band’s third studio album and names Tina Weymouth, David Byrne, Chris Frantz and Jerry Harrison in its notes. Pitchfork’s announcement also places the expanded edition with Rhino on 13 November 2026.
The package connects three parts of the group’s catalogue: the studio album, archival rarities and complete concert recordings. That combination gives the 13 November 2026 release a form that moves from remastered album audio to live performance and visual material.
Fear of Music offers vinyl, Blu-ray and audio mixes
The 6LP configuration collects remastered album material, rarities and the concert recordings. The 2LP version pairs the remastered album with rarities, while the 3CD/Blu-ray version adds the expanded audio and video presentation. Rhino lists all three configurations for 13 November 2026.
The live material comes from two complete concerts, and the Blu-ray adds rare film footage alongside its hi-res stereo, 5.1 and Atmos options. A 60-page hardcover book with photographs and liner notes completes the physical package.
