Eusexua is the upcoming third studio album by English singer FKA Twigs. It is set to be released on 13 September 2024 through Young and Atlantic Records. It marks her first studio album in five years, following Magdalene (2019) and her first full body of work in nearly three years, following Caprisongs (2022).
Background
[edit]Twigs first started teasing the album in January 2024 through a string of posts on her Discord. Having relocated to Prague "a couple summers" prior, she fell in love with Techno. While she explained that the album would not be comprised of the genre, it would still bear its "spirit" and described it as "deep but not sad".[1] She further revealed that she had teamed up with electronic duo Two Shell who helped her craft the era from scratch after 85 of her demos got leaked in October 2023.[2] In an interview with the British Vogue in March 2024, she explained the meaning behind the word "eusexua", saying that she came up with it herself to describe the "sensation of being so euphoric" that one could "transcend human form".[3]
Twigs premiered the "techno-inspired" album in its entirety at a New York listening party on 20 August 2024.[4] The intimate listening party took place in the Lower East Side neighbourhood of Manhatten that saw the singer wearing a brown corset top with brown boots and a brown wig in her hand.[5] On 31 August, she shared a picture of poster asking "Have you experienced eusexua?" with a release date slated for 13 September 2024.[6][7]
