Robyn confirms new album at bloody last
By Andy Malt | Published on Thursday 20 September 2018
All anyone has talked about in recent years is where the hell Robyn’s new album is. I think someone once briefly talked to me about something else, but then they quickly returned to the topic of Robyn and that missing new album.
Thinking about it, I suspect the main reason the Brexit negotiations are going so badly is because all the key negotiators just talk about Robyn the whole time. Well now, finally, perhaps a solution to the Irish border question can be found, because Robyn has confirmed that she will release a new album, called ‘Honey’, next flipping month.
The record is set to feature various collaborators, including Metronomy’s Joseph Mount, Kindness’s Adam Bainbridge and Zhala. Robyn herself describes the new LP as “this sweet place, like a very soft ecstasy”.
She goes on: “I danced a lot when I was making it. I found a sensuality and a softness that I don’t think I was able to use in the same way before. Everything just became softer”.
Perhaps if she hadn’t danced so much we would have got the record sooner and this whole Brexit debacle could have been avoided. Anyway, ‘Honey’ will be released on 26 Oct. Here’s a video of her announcing it. Try not to get distracted by her massive hand.
