Lorde Is Back With New Music and a Brand New Sound

Lorde’s new album Solar Power is out this August 20 and we can’t wait for it.

After 4 years of no new music, the Royals singer is finally back with a new full-length album and two singles — Solar Power and Stoned at the Nail Salon — preceding the album. The first single Solar Power (which shares the same title as the album) was released on June 10 and the second single Stoned at the Nail Salon was released on July 21.

Both singles feature guitar-driven indie folk sounds, a notable departure from the singer’s previous works. For fans who listened to her first and second album, Lorde’s songs often have a sad and melanchonic feel to them, with heavy synthwave and electropop instrumentals. Her two new singles, however, feature themes of bliss and starting anew, suggesting that her third album is going for a breezier, happier, and more acoustic sound.

The album is also co-produced by Bleachers lead singer Jack Antonoff, who also co-produced Lorde’s previous album, Melodrama, the singer’s most critically acclaimed album. Antonoff served as co-producer as well for other notable pop songs and albums such as Carly Rae Jepsen’s song Want You in My Room and Taylor Swift’s 1989, Reputation, Lover, Folklore, and Evermore albums.

Simply put, Lorde’s new album sounds like it’s going to be fantastic. We’re eagerly awaiting August 20, so much so that when it comes out, we’re listening to it first thing! Can you reach us? No, you can’t! (That was a reference to a Lorde lyric, our website will still be up and running during the release date.)
