After attaining a No.1 rank in the US with ‘Wasteland, Baby!’, the Irish singer-songwriter Hozier is on his way to winning over the hearts of his listeners with his upcoming new album ‘Unreal Unearth’. The singer took to Twitter on May 17, 2023, to announce the exciting news, along with a picture of the album cover: Hozier’s mouth, and a flower between his teeth peeping through the soil. The post read: “My new album #UnrealUnearth will find its way to you on August 18th.

I’m proud of this record and enjoyed watching it come to life over the past year. Thank you as always for your support and patience while it was coming to fruition.”

He also shared the link to pre-order the album under the caption, much to the delight of his fans, who showered the post with positive comments like: “A beacon of joy from the underworld – will be using the time until then to prepare myself mentally and emotionally.” and “thank you king”.

So far, the album is expected to comprise 16 songs, including singles like “Eat Your Young” (Released: 17 March 2023), “Francesca” (Released: 19 May 2023), “Unknown / Nth” (Released: 23 June 2023), and “De Selby (Part 2)” (Released: 21 July 2023). The artist revealed that the inspiration for ‘Unreal Unearth’ lay in 14th-century Italian writer Dante Alighieri’s idea of the Nine Circles of Hell, found in Inferno, which is the first part of his epic poem ‘Divine Comedy’. Speaking about his upcoming project, the singer said: “The album is quite eclectic and there’s something of a retrospective in what the sounds lean into. There’s some moments that are a bit more old school and stuff that’s Nineties grunge sounding too. For other moments we were leaning into playing with a lot of synthesizers.”

The ‘The Parting Glass’ singer is set to begin a major tour, kick-starting in Glasgow in June and stopping off at six spots across the country. The UK leg of the tour is to round off by the end of July at London’s Alexandra Palace, after which it would move to the US and would continue touring until the end of November, with 24 shows scheduled in the country.

‘Eat Your Young’ dropped ten years after the release of his first EP ‘Take Me to Church’, which peaked at number two on the Billboard 100 list and was the stepping stone to his international fame.
