Overview
- Love posted a video and caption to Instagram on Saturday saying she nearly died after a severe health collapse in London in 2019 that left her extremely thin, with hair loss and frequent hospital stays.
- She said she wrote and recorded much of the long‑awaited record while in and out of hospitals and confirmed the album is finished, calling it the record she always wanted to make.
- In the Instagram caption Love named collaborators including Billie Joe Armstrong, Michael Stipe, Butch Walker and others and said she wants to tour to sing and promote the new music.
- Love said she deliberately kept the 2019 illness private at the time and that she has since recovered and is now healthy, though she did not disclose a specific medical diagnosis.
- The announcement follows the Sundance‑premiered documentary Antiheroine, which covered her London move and sobriety, and the new album would be her first release since Hole’s 2010 record Nobody’s Daughter.
