Taylor Swift announced another special edition of her upcoming LP, The Tortured Poets Department, featuring an addition bonus track titled “The Albatross.” Swift posted to her socials: ‘File Name: The Albatross Pre-order the new edition of THE TORTURED POETS DEPARTMENT with exclusive bonus track “The Albatross” on my website now’
Swift’s latest announcement comes just a week after she announced a separate special edition of the new album, with the bonus track “The Bolter.” The new album – dubbed ‘TTPD’ for short – is set for release April 19, and was announced Swift’s acceptance speech at the 2024 Grammy Awards after winning the trophy for best pop vocal album for her 10th album, Midnights. Swift said: “This is my 13th Grammy. I want to say thank you to the members of the Recording Academy for voting this way, but I know that the way that the Recording Academy voted is a direct reflection of the passion of the fans. So I want to say ‘thank you’ to the fans by telling you a secret that I’ve been keeping from you for the last two years — which is that my brand-new album comes out April 19.”
The 16-song TTPD tracklist features from Post Malone and Florence + the Machine, along with a 17th bonus track titled “The Manuscript.” (to pre-order, head here.)
Swift also continues to tour the world on her Eras Tour, currently taking the show to Australia with performances in Melbourne and Sydney.
