Hot Wax! Pre-Orders & New Releases

Taylor Swift, the acclaimed American singer-songwriter, is gearing up for the drop of her eleventh studio album, "The Tortured Poets Department," or simply "Tortured Poets." It's hitting the airwaves on April 19, 2024, courtesy of Republic Records, and the buzz is palpable.

Swift gave fans a heads-up about this musical treat during the 66th Annual Grammy Awards on February 4, 2024. Right after snagging the Best Pop Vocal Album award for her last gem, "Midnights," back in 2022, she let the cat out of the bag.

Now, here's the backstory. Taylor didn't skip a beat after wrapping up "Midnights." Nope, she dove straight into crafting "The Tortured Poets Department." She poured her heart and soul into it during her Eras Tour from 2023 to 2024. This album, she says, is her "lifeline" record, born out of sheer necessity for expression.

With sixteen tracks in the lineup, "The Tortured Poets Department" boasts some exciting collaborations. Swift's teamed up with heavyweights like the American rapper Post Malone and the English indie rock sensations Florence and the Machine. And here's the cherry on top: if you snag the physical version, you'll get your hands on some bonus tracks too. So clear your schedules because this release is bound to be a musical rollercoaster.
