One year and change since FKA twigs unleashed her universally lauded debut album LP1, the multi-dimensional British singer-songwriter has returned in magnetic form with a new EP entitled M3LL155X (pronounced “Melissa”). Produced by the trio of tic, Cy An and Boots, the 5-track EP—her third extended play released in three years—is propelled by the coalescence of atmospheric, Bjork-like soundscapes and Twigs’ provocative, mind-stroking lyrics.
The EP is accompanied by a visually stunning, exquisitely choreographed and admittedly disconcerting 16-minute short film that features four of the EP’s five songs. The clip for highlight “In Time” is inspired, according to Twigs, by the desire to “conceptualise the process of feeling pregnant with pain, birthing creativity and liberation.”
Listen to and watch the latest offering from this consummate artist who we suspect, remarkably enough, hasn’t even come remotely close to the peak of her creative powers.
