(Republic) Lorde has officially announced her highly anticipated new album, Virgin, set for release on June 27. The project marks the New Zealander's first full-length body of work in four years and promises a bold evolution in her sound and storytelling.
The announcement follows the release of her new single "What Was That", co-produced by Lorde, Jim-E Stack and Dan Nigro. The track has been praised for its raw energy and emotional immediacy, offering a glimpse into the sonic world of Virgin.
"What Was That" has already made a major impact, hitting #1 on Spotify in the US - Lorde's first US #1 on the platform since "Royals". It also landed at #3 in the UK and #5 globally, solidifying Lorde's triumphant return to the top of the charts.
The video for "What Was That", shot on location in New York - including a surprise performance in Washington Square Park - captures the intimate, spontaneous spirit of this new chapter.
