Background
editTwigs first began teasing the album in January 2024 through a string of posts on her Discord. Having relocated to Prague "a couple summers" prior, she fell in love with techno; while she explained that the album would not consist of that genre but would bear its "spirit", and she described it as "deep but not sad".[1] She further revealed that she had teamed up with electronic duo Two Shell who helped her craft the era from scratch after 85 of her demos were leaked in October 2023.[2] In an interview with British Vogue in March 2024, she explained the meaning behind the word "eusexua", saying that she came up with it to describe the "sensation of being so euphoric" that one could "transcend human form".[3]
Twigs premiered the "techno-inspired" album in its entirety at a New York City listening party on 20 August 2024.[4] The intimate listening party took place in the Lower East Side neighbourhood of Manhattan that saw the singer wearing a brown corset top with brown boots and a brown wig in her hand.[5] On 31 August, she shared a picture of poster asking "Have you experienced eusexua?" with a lead single release date slated for 13 September 2024.[6][7] The album is set to be released on January 24, 2025 and will contain 11 tracks.
