Dominic Fike releases third album HOW TO QUIT SMOKING

Dominic Fike's third studio album, HOW TO QUIT SMOKING, was released through Columbia Records on October 30, 2026. The album was originally scheduled for release on October 9 but was delayed while Fike and his featured collaborators polished and finalized the music. The album arrived on streaming services on October 30 after four singles, led by the hit White Keys, and a three-week delay.

The album includes the previously released singles WALLFLOWER, SMALL TOWN, and PANGEA. The album was recorded outside a traditional studio, created and shared in real time from hotel rooms during the North American leg of the Comedy Tragedy Parody Tour. The album was announced as a 15-song album. Fike said the album title was conceived before he wrote any of the music. The album features guest contributions from Gabriel Jacoby, Emma Ogier, Hether, Grace Ives, Love Spells, Danny Brown, Jorjiana, and Tay-K.

The reviewer describes the album as not a radical reinvention of Fike's sound. The reviewer considers the album an enjoyable, well-made album overall. The reviewer states that the track Casting Call drops below two minutes in length.
