Miley Cyrus knocked it out of the park with her latest album Endless Summer Vacation, and its follow-up is finally on the way. She announced the release of Something Beautiful, the visual album that explores the theme of healing, set to be released later this spring.
Cyrus announced Something Beautiful by sharing the album cover on social media, which sees her wearing the archival 1997 Thierry Mugler couture. The photo was captured by renowned fashion photographer Glen Luchford, and the singer described it as “a striking nod to the album’s bold aesthetic and visual storytelling.”
The singer previously revealed that she used Pink Floyd’s seminal record The Wall as her main source of inspiration when making Something Beautiful. She told Harper’s BAZAAR that “it’s a concept album that’s an attempt to medicate somewhat of a sick culture through music,” while also adding “it was important for [her] that every song has these healing sound properties.”
Something Beautiful will be released by Columbia Records on May 30, and it will feature 13 brand-new songs. Cyrus is planning to release an accompanying visual film in June, described as “a unique visual experience fueled by fantasy”, which will feature archival Thierry Mugler couture, Jean Paul Gaultier, custom Alexander McQueen, and Alaïa.
