Lykke Li Announces 'The Afterparty,' Possibly Her Final Album
Lykke Li is set to release The Afterparty this spring, potentially marking her final album. The lead single, “Lucky Again,” is out now.
Lykke Li's final album is arriving this spring. The Afterparty is slated to drop on May 8 via Neon Gold Records/Futures, featuring the lead single “Lucky Again,” which samples Max Richter. Listen to it below, along with the full tracklist.
The Swedish singer's new record is her first LP since 2022's EYEYE. The Afterparty was recorded in Stockholm with a 17-piece orchestra and, as she describes it, “apocalyptic bongos.”
"I find that we’re in an era where everyone is talking about, ‘My higher self.’ Fuck that," Li stated. "This is an album dealing with your lower self: your need for revenge, your shame, despair, all of it."
During a listening party in Los Angeles, Li noted that this project "is my sixth album, and maybe my final." Her representatives have since confirmed that Afterparty will indeed be her last.
To support the record, Li has announced a series of live performances, including a London show with Wolf Alice and a Mexico City show with Robyn. She’s also scheduled to perform at both weekends of Coachella this April. Check out her full itinerary below.
