Briefly

Jehnny Beth, the former lead of the band Savages, announces her new album 'You Heartbreaker, You,' set to release on August 29 via Fiction Records. This follow-up to her 2020 debut, 'To Love Is to Live,' features the lead single 'Broken Rib.' In an interview, Beth expresses a desire to create an aggressive sound, reflecting her personal feelings of being broken yet not sorrowful. The album is co-directed by Beth and her collaborator Johnny Hostile and includes nine tracks that delve into complex emotional states.
I knew I wanted to make an aggressive sound and for the record to start with a scream on the song 'Broken Rib.' This is how I felt: the world was broken, I was broken, but it's not a sad thing.
How can a song recompose those fragments? Is it like a Frankenstein beast? I'm not trying to polish it or hide it.
Beth described her upcoming album, 'You Heartbreaker, You,' as an exploration of her feelings of brokenness and aggression.
You Heartbreaker, You follows her 2020 solo debut and is led by the single 'Broken Rib,' showcasing her unique artistic vision.
