Secret Love (Dry Cleaning album)

Secret Love is the third studio album by the English post-punk band Dry Cleaning, released on 9 January 2026 through 4AD Records and produced by the Welsh musician Cate Le Bon. Following Stumpwork (2022) by more than three years, it is their first album not to be produced by John Parish.

After beginning to write new material in the summer of 2024, Dry Cleaning recorded a series of demos, some at Wilco's The Loft in Chicago and Gilla Band's Sonic Studios in Dublin, before deciding on Le Bon to produce. They re-recorded almost everything with her at Black Box Studios in the Loire Valley, France, in mid-2025.

On Secret Love, the band continue to expand upon the post-punk style that defined their earlier work, and Florence Shaw's otherwise spoken word delivery increasingly relies on sung vocals. The album was preceded by four singles, starting with "Hit My Head All Day" in late September 2025, and upon release, it was met with widespread critical acclaim and debuted at no. 12 on the UK Albums Chart.
