With exactly one week until the release of Melodrama, Lorde has just announced that she’s going on tour and entering our Aussie shores in November. Are you freaking out, because I’m definitely freaking out.
To top off this wonderful news, Lorde has given us one more sneak peak into the new record and surprised us with a new song, “Sober”. She debuted this track at her intimate pre-Coachella gig at Pappy & Harriet back in April, where it earned a stamp of approval from punters at the show.
Alongside syncopated dance beats, Lorde sings about losing her mind and getting “fucked up”. The trumpets then kick in during the chorus and she questions “what will we do when we’re sober?”
If we’re going by the tracks already released, Melodrama is going to be one damn good album.
Listen here…
