The new artwork looks very similar to the original Music, Fashion, Film cover, with John Cale, Marc Jacobs and Martin Scorsese gathered in the same stark kitchen, staring neutrally into the camera. This time, though, Charli is among them, also dressed in all black and peering at the viewer with an unreadable expression.
The musician-designer-director trio on the main cover serves to represent each of the three words in the album’s title. “I’m not proclaiming by any means that these people are the trinity,” the British hitmaker said in a June interview with Nicky Reardon. “They’re mine … there are a million different versions of this album cover, for me, as well.”
Charli also shared several photos of herself, including one of her seemingly posing nude while holding a white T-shirt with the tracklist in black print.
Before then, the singer made it clear that she was wanting to distance herself from the sound of ‘Brat’, and later added that she found it interesting to see the polarised reaction to the lead single.
Now, she has insisted again in a new interview with Rolling Stone that her forthcoming record, which is due to land on July 24, is not a rock LP.
“Obviously, I know that there’s been a lot of conversation around me making a rock album, which is something that I never said. But to be honest, I’ve never thought about genre in a binary way. I find that to be a very old-school notion. I don’t even know what the genre is. It’s just me and [her collaborators] A. G. Cook and Finn Keane, doing our thing,” she said.
Charli also went on to say that the dancefloor is far from “dead” despite her lyrics on recent single ‘Rock Music’ stating: “I think the dancefloor is dead, so now we’re making rock music.”
The lyric even prompted Madonna, who is currently gearing up to release the long-anticipated sequel to 2005’s ’Confessions On A Dance Floor’ with ‘Confessions II’, to respond: “If your Dance floor feels dead, Maybe you’re playing the wrong music”.
She will return to the stage to make her headline debut at Reading & Leeds in August, topping the festival bill alongside Fontaines D.C., Raye, Florence + The Machine, Dave and Chase & Status. Visit here for tickets.
