Album Notes & Community Reviews

Partially recorded in a historic Norwegian castle, the singer's third studio album is conceptually structured around Greek mythology, with each track representing a different god. The production leans into expansive, highly melodic electro-pop and folk, utilizing her distinctly ethereal vocal range to explore themes of sexuality, shame, and religious forgiveness.
