The Swedish popstar has kicked off proceedings for her sixth studio album ‘Estrus’, which is due to be released September 18 via Pretty Swede Records and Virgin Music Group. (NME report)
Tove Lo made the record with longtime collaborator Ludvig Söderberg (Lorde, Zara Larsson) and Elvira Anderfjärd and Luka Kloser (Addison Rae). ‘Estrus’ will also feature a guest feature from French musician Stromae.
She also recorded the album in LA, Stockholm and in a small Swedish fishing village that the singer spent her childhood summers in. Tove Lo has said ‘Estrus’ is informed by the memories from that village: “Growing up, being depressed, struggling with my eating disorder, going through breakups, family drama, loss, everything.”
“Estrus is an animal in heat,” Tove Lo added about the album. “It’s primal. It’s my mind and my body wanting different things, wanting everything. There’s no good advice on this album… just a lot of feelings, no solutions.”
