On Tuesday, multiple sites reported details about Feist's fifth studio album Pleasure, the highly-anticipated followup to 2011's Metals. This afternoon, Feist used Twitter to address the early reports and share the record's cover art. "Much to my surprise, I woke up this morning to see the word is out for Pleasure," she wrote. "But as Leonard Cohen once said 'the devil laughs at those who make plans.'"
"So here's what I can tell you," she continued. "I made this record last winter with 2 of my closest friends, Mocky and Renaud LeTang. I was raw and so were the takes...I titled the album Pleasure like I was planting a seed or prophecising some brightness." Though no release date for the record has been confirmed, Feist promised that "the music is en route." See Feist's tweets about her upcoming Pleasure album below.
A representative for Universal Music Group was not immediately available for comment.
I've been so inward facing during the making of this record that I hadn't quite prepared myself to face it, and myself, outward again.

I was raw and so were the takes.

Our desire was to record that state without guile or go-to's and to pin the songs down with conviction and our straight up human bodies.

The experience of pleasure is mild or deep, sometimes temporal, sometimes a sort of low grade lasting, usually a motivator.

If the way you look at things is how they look then my motivation is to look with a brighter eye.

So there it is, in a nutshell. I'm grateful for your curiosity, the music is en route. Best and soon, Leslie 🌺
