Miley Cyrus announces new album, ‘Plastic Hearts’

Miley Cyrus has announced that her seventh studio album, Plastic Hearts, will be released on November 27th via RCA Records.

Tracks from the album include Miley’s summer hit, ‘Midnight Sky’, as well as critically acclaimed live covers of Blondie’s ‘Heart of Glass’ and The Cranberries’ ‘Zombie’.

Rock ’n’ roll photographer Mick Rock shot the album’s cover art, adding Miley to the list of legends he has photographed over the years including David Bowie, Lou Reed, Iggy Pop, Joan Jett and Debbie Harry. 

Miley also shared a personal handwritten message contextualising her album and the inspiration behind it. Read the letter in full here.

Plastic Hearts is available to pre-order now.

If you’re reading this… know that I fucking love and appreciate you on the deepest level. I began this album over 2 years ago. Thought I had it all figured out. Not just the record with its songs and sounds but my whole fucking life. No one checks an ego like life itself. Just when I thought the body of work was finished… it was ALL erased. Including most of the musics relevance.
Because EVERYTHING had changed.

Nature did what I now see as a favor and destroyed what I couldn’t let go of for myself.
I lost my house in a fire but found myself in its ashes.

Luckily my collaborators still had most of the music that was burned up in journals and computers filled with songs for the EP series I was working on at the time. But it never felt right to release my “story” (each record being a continual autobiography) with a huge chapter missing.

If it were a chapter in my book I guess I would call it “The Beginning” which usually when something is over we call it “The End”. But it was far from that.

In triumph and gratitude I present to you my 7th studio record, Plastic Hearts. To be released Nov. 27th 2020.
