Fine Line is the second studio album by English singer Harry Styles, released on 13 December 2019 by Columbia and Erskine Records. The album's themes involve the initial excitement of meeting someone, break ups, and "having sex and feeling sad"[1], as Styles has said himself. The record has been described as pop rock, with elements of prog-pop, psychedelic pop, folk, soul, funk and indie pop.

Supported by five singles—"Lights Up", "Adore You", "Falling", "Watermelon Sugar" and "Golden"—Fine Line debuted at number three on the UK Albums Chart and number one on the Billboard 200, making it Styles' second consecutive number-one album in the US.[2] The album had the third-largest sales week of 2019 in the US and broke the record as the biggest debut from a British male artist since Nielsen SoundScan began, earning 478,000 album-equivalent units.[2]

Fine Line received generally positive reviews from critics, particularly towards its production and stylistic influences. It was nominated for Album of the Year at the 2020 Brit Awards and has been certified platinum in the US for combined sales and album-equivalent units of over one million units in the country. In 2020, Rolling Stone ranked it number 491 on its list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time, making it the most recent album to be included.

Background

In an interview with Rolling Stone released on 26 August 2019, it was reported that the singer was putting the "final touches" on his album which Styles explained was "all about having sex and feeling sad." The album was also described to contain his "toughest, most soulful songs he's written yet."[3] On the direction of his second album, Styles revealed he wanted to be more fun and adventurous compared to his self-titled debut album.[4]

Much of the album was inspired by Styles' split from model Camille Rowe. Following the couple's split, producer and writer Kid Harpoon encouraged Styles to deal with his emotions by writing about them.[5] During the recording Styles was inspired by David Bowie, Van Morrison, Paul McCartney and Joni Mitchell. The latter's album Blue (1971) and its use of the dulcimer, particularly influenced the album's musical style. Styles tracked down the woman who built the dulcimer used in Mitchell's album and requested lessons; she would go on to build Styles his own dulcimer which was used during the album's recording.[5] Styles acknowledged using psychedelic drugs during the recording process.[6]

Release and promotion

The album was released on 13 December 2019, by Columbia and Erskine, Styles's second to be released under the label. The standard edition was released on CD, vinyl, digital download and streaming. The deluxe edition of the album was released on CD on 13 December 2019.[7][8][9] Shortly before release of the album's lead single "Lights Up", the album was promoted by billboards and the caption: "Do You Know Who You Are?" in several cities around the world.[10] Marketing for a tourism agency in Eroda, the fictitious isle Styles' team came up with, began appearing on social media; as well as a website for the for the isle.[11][12] Styles collaborated with Spotify to organize a fan-exclusive event held at an undisclosed location in Los Angeles for a private listening party, where fans were taken to experience Eroda, an elaborate theme created for his single "Adore You".[13]

Styles promoted the album on the 16 November episode of NBC's Saturday Night Live as both a host and a musical guest.[14] Leading up to the album's release, on 10 December, Styles also served as the guest host on The Late Late Show with James Corden.[15] To celebrate the release and maximize sales of the album, Styles held a one-night-only show at The Forum in Los Angeles that coincided with the album's December 13 release. Styles allowed fans to pre-order his album and rewarded them with a code to have a chance to buy tickets to see him at his one-night-only show for only $25.[16] The show in Los Angeles was followed by another show at the Electric Ballroom in London on 19 December with British rapper Stormzy as a special guest[17] The album will be promoted with Love On Tour.[18]

Singles

"Lights Up", the lead single from the album, was released on 11 October 2019, debuting at number 3 on the UK Singles Chart.[19][20] The song features a "soft-touch re-entry into the pop slipstream", according to music writer Jon Caramanica.[21] The song debuted at number 17 on the Billboard Hot 100.[22]

On 2 December, Styles revealed the trailer for the album's second single, "Adore You". The song and music video were released on 6 December, with the extended version of the music video being narrated by Rosalía.[23] "Adore You" peaked at number six on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming his first top-ten single in the country since his solo debut single, "Sign of the Times".[24] In the singer's native, the United Kingdom, the song peaked at number seven.

A music video for "Falling" was released on 28 February.[25] On 7 March 2020, "Falling" was officially released as the third single of the album in the UK.[26] Peaking at number 15 on the UK Singles Chart, the song became Styles third consecutive top-fifteen single from the album. Moreover, it peaked at number 62 on the Billboard Hot 100.[27]

"Watermelon Sugar" was released as the album's fourth single on 15 May 2020. It was originally released as a promotional single on 16 November 2019;[28] Styles performed "Watermelon Sugar" on Saturday Night Live.[29][30] Peaking at number four on the UK Singles Chart, the song became Styles third top-ten single from the album.[27] Additionally, it peaked at number one in the US, making it his first number one single in the country.[31]

"Golden" is set to impact US adult pop radio formats on 26 October 2020 and Top 40 on the following day as the album's fifth single.[32][33]

Fine Line received generally positive reviews from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalised rating out of 100 to reviews from professional critics, the album has an average score of 76 out of 100, based on 20 reviews.[39]

Gregory Robinson, writing for The Guardian, regarded the album as "confident, convincing and catchy."[48] Alexandra Pollard of The Independent stated that "it may not reach the pinnacle of sex or sadness, but Fine Line is a fine album nonetheless."[43] Hannah Mylrea of NME found the album to be "a total joy", calling it "an elegant combination of the ex-boybander's influences, slick modern pop and his own roguish charm."[44] Rea McNamara of NOW Magazine praised Styles' decision to lean towards "ebullient, soulful pop" while naming "Sunflower, Vol. 6" as the album's best track.[45] Writing for Rolling Stone, Nick Catucci deemed the album "excellent" and felt that "if there’s a nontoxic masculinity, Harry Styles just might’ve found it."[46] David Smyth of The Evening Standard remarked that while Styles' music can not "live up to the sparkling imagery of his press profiles", his second album makes "a strong argument for being the most interesting boy band escapee yet."[49]

Jon Pareles of The New York Times described the production as a "tour-de-force" and complimented how "Styles exults in sound, not image."[50] Chris Willman of Variety commented that, contrary to Style's description of the record, the sensuality and melancholy are "a little on the muted side", while Styles is "still stuck" in the classic rock era that he "casually [claims] as his own."[36] Bryan Rolli of Consequence of Sound called Fine Line an "airy, melancholy album that diplomatically addresses heartache while declining to wallow in it", complimenting his more honest songwriting but lamenting the lack of energy in his vocal performance.[51] The Daily Telegraph's Neil McCormick characterized the album as "charming but inconsequential",[41] while Mark Richardson of The Wall Street Journal described it as "earnest, forthright and delivered with polish", but "more imitative than original" and offering "no fresh perspective".[52] In a mixed review, Jeremy D. Larson of Pitchfork described the "actual sound" of Fine Line as "incredible" as Styles' influences permeate the record, but considered his songwriting shallow and lacking in imagination.[35]
