More about: Tove Lo

Tove Lo has followed up last month's excellent single 'No One Dies From Love' with a new single — 'True Romance' — and announced her fifth studio album Dirt Femme. 

S.G. Lewis, First Aid Kit and Channel Tres will all appear on the record, though there are no features on 'True Romance', track four on Dirt Femme. This is a slowly building and ultimately throat-tearing outpouring that sounds as if there was a genuine overflow of emotion on Tove's first vocal take.

On the album as a whole, Tove said: “Dirt Femme is about me and my relationship with my femininity. When I started out as a writer and an artist, I used to view my feminine traits as weaker and would enhance my masculine traits to get ahead in life. I feel a big energy shift in my environment since then and this album reflects the various ways my feminine side has both helped and hurt me.”

She added: “I’m a pansexual woman married to a straight man. I believe masculine and feminine lives on a spectrum in all humans. There are so many more interesting nuances than most people want to accept."
