BANKS explores emotional vulnerability in her latest single “Love Is Unkind,” from her upcoming album “Off With Her Head”, out February 28.
BANKS continues to captivate with her new single, “Love Is Unkind,” a haunting track that dives deep into the emotional complexities of a toxic love affair. Released through ADA Worldwide, the single will be part of her much-anticipated fifth studio album, Off With Her Head, set for release on February 28, 2025.
With “Love Is Unkind,” BANKS revisits the brooding, vulnerable tones of her debut album Goddess, while showing the immense growth she’s experienced both personally and artistically. As she shares: “‘Love Is Unkind’ is about an emotionally dangerous relationship that had me running around in circles. It’s about how love can be unkind and masochistic. Rewinding your memory and seeing things clearly.”
Off With Her Head is a reflection of her evolving artistry, blending the past with the present. BANKS further reflects: “In many ways, it’s a big sister album to Goddess. After a decade apart, I’ve reunited with the core musicians and producers who helped shape my debut. At the same time, it’s something entirely different—I’ve grown so much as an artist and a person, and the journey is documented in all these sounds.”
The album will also feature previous singles “I Hate Your Ex-Girlfriend” featuring Doechii and “Best Friends.” Fans can pre-order the album now, which includes an exclusive brown LP vinyl edition.
“Love Is Unkind” brings a fresh perspective to BANKS’ ongoing exploration of emotional depth, setting the stage for an album that promises to be both intimate and expansive.
