Lorde vows not to leave fans waiting another four years for her next album
Lorde is "very active" creatively and looking forward to seeing what direction her music takes next.
Lorde has vowed not to leave fans waiting another four years for her next album.
The Green Light hitmaker returned in June with her fourth studio LP Virgin, the follow-up to 2021's Solar Power.
In a new interview, Lorde insists she doesn't envisage needing to "take a break from being creative" anytime soon and she is excited to see what direction her music takes next.
She told Variety: “I mean, I’m excited to find out.
“I’m definitely feeling very active and not needing a break from being creative. I’m feeling kind of insatiable, to be honest. So I don’t know, but I’ve thrown the gauntlet down that it’s not going to be four years [again], so I’ve gotta keep to that.”
Lorde bared all about gender fluidity, trauma and self-discovery on Virgin.
Regarding her gender identity, on the track Hammer - which the singer described as “an ode to city life and horniness" - Lorde declared: "Some days I'm a woman, some days I'm a man."
On her website, Lorde dubbed Hammer - which she penned with Jim E-Stack (Caroline Polachek, Haim and Dominic Fike) - the "sound of my rebirth".
Lorde previously admitted she doesn't identify with the person she depicted on Solar Power.
Appearing on Therapuss with Jake Shane, she said: “I love Solar Power so much, and I truly needed to make it.
“I wouldn’t be here with another album if I hadn’t made Solar Power. But it showed me that you have no choice but to be who you’re supposed to be.
“Me disappearing and being all wafty… I was like ‘actually, I don’t think this is me.’”
