Eusexua is the upcoming third studio album by English singer FKA Twigs. It is set to be released on 24 January 2025 through Young and Atlantic Records. It marks her first studio album in five years, following Magdalene (2019), and her first full body of work in over three years, following the mixtape Caprisongs (2022).
"Eusexua" is also the title track and lead single off the album, released 13 September 2024.




Background


On 16 June 2022, Twigs released a single "Killer". On 15 March 2023, she teased an unreleased track in a Calvin Klein campaign, in which she also appeared. On 14 September 2023, at the Vogue World: London event, she covered Opus III's rave classic "It's a Fine Day" (1992); she was joined onstage by members of the Rambert Dance Company, as well as Cara Delevingne, with whom she shared a choreographed kiss. On 1 October 2023, she performed in Valentino's show at Paris Fashion Week; the performance, entitled Unearth Her, included tracks recorded with longtime collaborator and producer Koreless for her then-upcoming album. According to Alex Rigotti of NME, the previewed songs "seemed to be influenced by thrumming techno and dreamy trance instrumentals".
Twigs first began teasing the album in January 2024 through a string of posts on her Discord. Having relocated to Prague "a couple summers" prior to work on The Crow (2024), she fell in love with techno; while she explained that the album would not consist of that genre but would bear its "spirit", and she described it as "deep but not sad". She further revealed that she had teamed up with electronic duo Two Shell who helped her craft the era from scratch after 85 of her demos were leaked in October 2023. In an interview with British Vogue in March 2024, she explained the meaning behind the word "eusexua", saying that she came up with it to describe the "sensation of being so euphoric" that one could "transcend human form". On 22 August 2024 on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Twigs told the guest host RuPaul: "I'm obsessed with alternative cultures and subcultures, so to be somewhere brand new that I'd never been, that kind of amazing East Bloc techno warehouse raves, techno kids, I just couldn't resist."




Release and promotion


Twigs premiered the "techno-inspired" album in its entirety at a New York City listening party on 20 August 2024. The intimate listening party took place in the Lower East Side neighbourhood of Manhattan that saw the singer wearing a brown corset top with brown boots and a brown wig in her hand. On 31 August, she shared a picture of poster asking "Have you experienced eusexua?" with the title track released as the lead single on 13 September 2024. The album is set to be released on 24 January 2025 and will contain 11 tracks. The "Eusexua" music video, directed by Jordan Hemingway, was released the same day as the single. The prelude of the video features a preview of another album track, "Drums of Death".
Soon after announcing the album, Twigs performed two unreleased tracks, entitled "Room of Fools" and "Girl Feels Good", live at an event hosted by On Running during London Fashion Week. On 17 October 2024, she released "Perfect Stranger" as the second single from the album. Its accompanying music video was released the same day; it was directed by Hemingway, and featured appearances from actress Phoebe Waller-Bridge, fashion designer Mowalola Ogunlesi and musician Yves Tumor. "Drums of Death" was released as the third single on 14 November. Its instrumental was conceived by Koreless, who is featured on the song, on a flight to Berlin ahead of his performance at Berghain.
