Written and recorded during the final months of Mike Peters’ life, Transformation stands as the last album from The Alarm. Diagnosed with the rare and aggressive cancer Richter’s Syndrome in April 2024, Peters continued to write and record while undergoing intense treatment, maintaining the defiant optimism that defined both his music and his life. Across fifteen songs, Transformation carries the enduring themes that have long shaped The Alarm’s work — love, hope and resilience. Even in the face of profound adversity, Peters’ songwriting remains direct and life-affirming, driven by the same spirit that has sustained the band for decades. Completed shortly before his passing in April 2025, Transformation is both a powerful closing chapter and a lasting testament to Peters’ determination, courage and belief in the power of music to face life head-on.
