From the Pyre is an album by Last Dinner Party, released in 2025. 2 songs from it have charted on rock radio countdowns, with 18 countdown appearances in total. The biggest is “This Is The Killer Speaking”, on 17 lists with a best position of #3.
From the Pyre, the second album from English band the Last Dinner Party, came out on Island Records on 17 October 2025, and it doubles down on the theatrical, baroque pop drama of their acclaimed 2024 debut, Prelude to Ecstasy. Markus Dravs produced and Alan Moulder mixed, and after two years of heavy touring their regular session drummer, Casper Miles, joined the core band in writing and recording it.
Four singles paved the way: "This Is the Killer Speaking", "The Scythe", "Second Best" and "Count the Ways", big, swooning, flamboyant songs that swing from pop hooks to indie rock crunch. "This Is The Killer Speaking" is the one rock radio's countdowns grabbed hardest, and videos for "Sail Away" and "Agnus Dei" followed once the album was out.
