Holy Fvck is the upcoming eighth studio album by American singer Demi Lovato. It is set to be released on August 19, 2022, through Island Records. The album's lead single "Skin of My Teeth" is slated for release on June 10, 2022. In support of the album, Lovato will embark on the Holy Fvck Tour, set to commence on August 13, 2022.[1]
Background[edit]
In January 2022, Lovato posted on Instagram that they held a "funeral" for their former pop music, with a picture of Lovato with label and management executives all wearing black and Lovato holding up two middle fingers.[2] This was later clarified to be a music label meeting and the fact everyone was wearing black was simply a coincidence, but Lovato had felt it was symbolic of a change in direction that their music was taking.[3] In the months proceeding this event, Lovato enthusiastically shared various snippets of a more rock sound on their social media, with "crashing guitars, soaring vocals and cutting lyrics".[4][5] In an interview with Rolling Stones in February 2022, Lovato confirmed a return to "emo-rock" that was "reminiscent of my first era".[6][7] Lovato clarified, however, that their new studio album would differ from their debut album Don't Forget (2008), in that it has a "heaviness" not lyrically, but "heaviness as in some of the sound that I haven’t done before".[8] Lovato also spoke to Inked, confirming their new album is “definitely not R&B or soulful, I would say it’s more rock than anything" and that it was inspired by punk rock musicians that Lovato was currently listening to, such as Royal and the Serpent and Turnstile.[9]
On Instagram stories in April 2022, the singer confirmed their upcoming album to reflect on "the artist's ups and downs during their personal journey". Lovato further explained, "getting emotional listening to my new album because I'm so proud of it", as well as labeling it their "absolute best yet and so representative of me, where I started and who I am today".[10] At this point, a lead single was just "weeks away" per Lovato's communication with fans.[11] Lovato finally confirmed the lead single would be titled "Skin of My Teeth" on May 23, 2022, indirectly through a short tweet that was responding to fan speculation.[12] A few days later, Lovato officially announced the song's release and shared the cover art for the single.[13] Lovato announced the album with its cover art and release date on June 6, 2022, with a link to Lovato's official store where fans can order physical copies of the album.[14] According to Pitchfork, the album is set to include 16 tracks.[15]
In a statement by Lovato to fans via Pitchfork, Lovato shared: "The process of making this album has been the most fulfilling yet, and I'm grateful to my fans and collaborators for being on this journey with me. Never have I been more sure of myself and my music, and this record speaks that for itself. To my Lovatics who have been rocking out with me since the beginning and those who are just now coming along for the ride, thank you. This record is for you."[15]
Promotion[edit]
The album announcement was supported by the release of an album trailer on June 6, 2022, with a snippet of "Skin of My Teeth" serving as the background music to a series of clips of Lovato creating the album in the studio.[16] The trailer ends with a snippet of a song not yet announced, with the lyrics "Get your tickets to the freak show baby".[17]
