Fan the Flame (Part 2): The Resurrection is the eighth and final album by British band Dead or Alive, released on 29 October 2021.[2] The songs were originally recorded in 1992 as a follow-up to Fan the Flame (Part 1) but cancelled prior to completion. The recordings were completed by producer Craig Hardy, following discussions with Pete Burns and Steve Coy prior to their deaths and with the help of Coy's estate.[3][4]

Reception
editRetro Pop Magazine gave the album three and a half stars out of five, noting that "some tracks hold up better than others" and that "some of the tracks are undercooked". However, it was noted that "the album excels, with the instrumentals and Pete’s vibrant vocals clean and fresh, like stepping back into the ‘90s."[5]
