EUSEXUA Afterglow is a “continuation” of 2024’s EUSEXUA.
FKA twigs will release the techno album EUSEXUA Afterglow on November 14.
After debuting the track in Seoul, South Korea, lead single Cheap Hotel is out now, along with the Jordan Hemingway-helmed music video.
Afterglow was intended to be a deluxe edition of January’s EUSEXUA, but soon transpired into its own entity.
The new collection “expands on the feelings that come after experiencing EUSEXUA, transmuting them into a soundtrack for the hours after the rave and extending that high into the afters.”
A press release continued: “Afterglow is a record steeped in the reverence of techno, but the beats now are fractured and derelict, and playful most importantly.”
In June, twigs signed a global publishing deal with the indie firm Kobalt.
Jeannette Perez, president and chief commercial officer of Kobalt, said: “FKA twigs stands as a truly singular talent – a prolific songwriter and artist whose work consistently pushes boundaries. It’s a privilege to welcome her to the Kobalt family, and we are absolutely thrilled she has placed her trust in us as her publishing partner. We are eager to collaborate with her and her team, dedicating ourselves to safeguarding her unique artistry and amplifying her music’s reach across the globe.”
FKA twigs manager Jon Lieberberg commented: “Kobalt has proven time and time again to be an incredible strategic partner – offering top-tier A R and sync support, along with some of the most clear and transparent administrative services in the industry. We’re truly excited about this partnership with Kobalt.”
Away from music, the 37-year-old star was cast as the Virgin Mary in the upcoming horror film, The Carpenter’s Son, starring Nicolas Cage in the titular role.
What’s more, she will portray the legendary entertainer and activist Josephine Baker in an upcoming biopic by French filmmaker Maïmouna Doucouré.
Last year, twigs made her solo debut as a dancer with the Martha Graham Company and she co-starred with Bill Skarsgård in a modern adaptation of The Crow, directed by Rupert Sanders.
