iann dior’s ‘CYCLES’ features lead track “TATTOOS & U”, a bold blend of rock energy and emotional depth.
iann dior has released CYCLES, a bold and emotionally charged new album via Big Noise. Known for his genre-mixing sensibilities, iann dials in on unfiltered expression with this project, crafting songs that defy categorization and prioritize real emotion over perfection.
With John Feldmann (blink-182, 5SOS) executive producing, CYCLES leans into rock and hip-hop textures while retaining iann’s signature melodic touch. “I stopped editing out the flaws,” he says. “Some of the best parts were recorded in one take with all the emotion still on my voice.”
The album’s lead single, “TATTOOS & U,” features standout guitars and a memorable chorus, accompanied by a video shot during iann’s NYC tour stop. The visuals include live footage, tattoo sessions, and quiet cab rides—providing fans with an inside look at life on the road.
“This album means growth,” iann explains. “I’m not trying to be the version of myself people expect. I’m trying to be the most honest version of myself, period.”
Following a North American headline tour and a high-profile set at Bottlerock, iann will take CYCLES to the stage at Summerfest on June 21 and Warped Tour in Long Beach on July 26–27.
CYCLES is streaming now—a resonant and daring album that showcases the full scope of iann dior’s creative identity.
