Billie Eilish Hit Me Loud and Soft release date

She continued: "Finneas [Eilish's brother and producer] and I truly could not be more proud of this album and we absolutely can't wait for you to hear it. Love you, love you, love you."

The announcement was accompanied by a first look at the album cover, which features Eilish underwater, barefoot and sinking beneath a wooden door.

The singer also revealed that she won’t be releasing any singles for the album because "I wanna give it to you all at once :PPP".

According to a press release, Eilish's new album promises to "hit you hard and soft both lyrically and sonically".

It added that the music "journeys through a vast and expansive audio landscape, immersing listeners into a full spectrum of emotions".

Hit Me Hard and Soft marks her third album, following 2021’s Happier Than Ever and her 2019 debut When We Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?, which launched her to stardom.

Back in 2023, she told The Cookout she was working on new music.

"There is lots of music coming," she said. "There is a whole album of music coming. We’re in the final stages of making it, so that doesn’t mean it’s about to come out, but it is getting there, and it’s very exciting."
