Today marks the highly anticipated release of GUTS — the sophomore album from multi-Platinum-selling three-time GRAMMY®-winner Olivia Rodrigo. One of the most highly awaited albums of the year, GUTS arrives as the follow-up to Rodrigo’s 2x ARIA Certified Platinum 2021 full-length debut SOUR and features her No. 1 hit “vampire” and the new focus track “get him back!.” GUTS is available to stream/download HERE.

See below for the full tracklist to GUTS.

Produced by her frequent collaborator Daniel Nigro and partly created at the legendary Electric Lady Studios in New York City, GUTS is a major leap forward in both the unbridled honesty of Rodrigo’s songwriting and the bold originality of her sound. The album has already won acclaim from leading outlets like the New York Times, who stated that “Olivia Rodrigo, pop’s brightest new hope, just may be a rock star” in a recent feature on the 20-year-old artist.

With the premiere of “vampire” in June, Rodrigo offered a powerful introduction to her newly expanded artistry and immediately earned countless accolades. To that end, The Atlantic noted that the piano-driven epic “pushes her confessional-pop appeal to a sizzling extreme,” while the Los Angeles Times deemed it a “feat of introspection scaled up to rock-operatic dimensions. It’s tragic; it’s exultant; it’s very, very promising.” Her biggest debut of all time on multiple platforms, “vampire” debuted at No. 1 on the Official ARIA Singles Chart, set the Spotify record for the biggest debut for a solo song in 2023, and ultimately shot to top 3 on the Australian airplay chart. Most recently, “vampire” reached the No. 1 spot on the UK Official Singles Chart — a turn of events that made Rodrigo the female artist with the most No. 1 singles in the UK this decade.

Like “vampire,” GUTS’ second single “bad idea right?” was named a Best New Track by Pitchfork, who hailed the latter as “one of the best pop performances of the year.” Released last month alongside its B-movie-inspired video, “bad idea right?” also drew raves from the likes of Rolling Stone (who called it a “sugary headbanger”) and the New York Times (who praised the track as a “bright, kaleidoscopic head-rush of a pop song…” in its weekly column “The Playlist”).

GUTS arrives as Rodrigo gears up for her performance at the MTV VMAs 2023, airing next Wednesday at 1PM AEST. Directed by famed artist/director/photographer Petra Collins, the video for “vampire” received six nominations for this year’s VMAs, including Video of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Pop, Best Cinematography, Best Editing, and Song of the Summer. Collins previously earned a GRAMMY® nomination for her work on the video for Rodrigo’s 9x Platinum, ARIA chart-topping “good 4 u” and also directed the videos for her Platinum track “brutal” and for “bad idea right?”

Thanks to the monumental success of “vampire” — and her 8x Platinum debut single “drivers license” — Rodrigo is now the first International artist ever to debut the lead singles from two career-opening albums atop the Official ARIA Singles Chart.

Olivia Rodrigo is set to hit Australian shores later this month, with an exclusive once-in-a-lifetime Q&A on Friday 22nd September. In order to win a meet & greet with Olivia and double passes to the Q&A, purchase a copy of GUTS from her official Australian store now. Of the trip, Rodrigo said “I can’t wait to get down to Australia. I’ve never been and I’m so excited to meet everyone. I’ll see you soon Livies!”.
