Miley Cyrus never disappoints: Something Beautiful is out!

Miley Cyrus never disappoints and, even though we already knew it, with her new album Something Beautiful she confirms her place as one of the most musical fearless icons.

Gone is the sun-soaked polish of Endless Summer Vacation. In its place is a bold and cinematic world filled with prog pop, disco haze and bursts of electric chaos. Is it post-apocalyptic? Is it spiritual? Miley Cyrus doesn’t choose. She creates her own world and invites everyone into it. Let's analyze it together!

Miley Cyrus new album is Something (very) Beautiful!

Something Beautiful is an album that feels intense and full of life. It opens with delicacy: her voice and the whole atmosphere surrounding the project carry that soft vibe. Then boom: the title track arrives, powerful like a storm within all this calm. Every song is crafted with great care and leaves a mark even after the very first listen. The lyrics are full of meaning yet never feel heavy: they are honest and personal.

One of the most incredible things is how Miley manages to bring together so many different sounds while always staying true to herself. The influences of her past projects can be heard: the psychedelic experiments of Dead Petz, the glam energy of Plastic Hearts and even touches of the pop she made at the very beginning. But these nods to her past “eras” are not there just to spark nostalgia: they become something original and distinctive, also reflected in the refined sound that defines the project.

The closing track was inspired by a print of Bosch’s The Garden of Earthly Delights and speaks of the chaos of the world with both hope and melancholy. That print feels almost tangible thanks to her magnificent voice.

In short, it is clear that Something Beautiful aims for quality.
