Today, Halsey released their fourth studio album, ‘If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power’. The career-defining album, which features 13 songs penned by Halsey, was produced by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross. Known for their work in Nine Inch Nails and as Oscar, Golden Globe and GRAMMY winning film and television composers, ‘If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power’ is the first album the pair have produced for another artist. Dave Grohl, Lindsey Buckingham and Pino Palladino guest on the album. See below for track listing. Anticipation has been building since early July, when Halsey unveiled the album’s cover art at The Met Fifth Avenue in New York City.

Announcing the cover art on her Instagram, Halsey stated:

“This album is a concept album about the joys and horrors of pregnancy and childbirth. It was very important to me that the cover art conveyed the sentiment of my journey over the past few months. The dichotomy of the Madonna and the Whore. The idea that me as a sexual being and my body as a vessel and gift to my child are two concepts that can co-exist peacefully and powerfully. My body has belonged to the world in many different ways the past few years, and this image is my means of reclaiming my autonomy and establishing my pride and strength as a life force for my human being.

This cover image celebrates pregnant and postpartum bodies as something beautiful, to be admired. We have a long way to go with eradicating the social stigma around bodies & breastfeeding. I hope this can be a step in the right direction!”

Hailing the album as “an industrial-leaning masterpiece,” SPIN observed, “Halsey is not a woman, they’re a rock God. And IICHLIWP proves she’s earned the title.” Stereogum heralded ‘If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power’ as “one of those statement albums that change the course of an artist’s career.” Associated Press noted, “Halsey is at her best here…This is the sound of ambition, an evolution of Halsey’s sound…”

Tickets are on sale HERE for Halsey’s one-night-only global digital performance experience, ‘If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power’, which will be live streamed on Monday, August 30 at 7pm AEST for Australian fans.
