While his latest album Endless Summer Vacations signed the musical and fashion revival of Miley Cyrus (today muse of Dolce & Gabbana), the singer’s future opus planned for 2025 promises to be just as disruptive and exciting. His inspiration? A legendary rock album and a horror film…
Miley Cyrus’ rock turn in 2025
Since the start of his career, Miley Cyrusnew muse Dolce & Gabbanacombines personalities. From his alter go Disney Hannah Montana during his country and ultra pop period (The Time of Our Lives2009 ; Can’t Be Tamed2010 ; Younger Now2017) through its much-maligned “hip-hop” period (Bangerz2013), the American singer explores musical and clothing styles, without really finding her way – except with the brilliant Plastic Hearts (released in 2020), where she manages to put her powerful voice on pop and rock sounds.
His latest opus, Endless Summer Vacation (2023), pop and dance-pop, is also one of the most accomplished of her career, confirming her talents as a composer and performer and imposing a more peaceful image of her character.
The announcement of his next album (which will be a visual disc), Something Beautifulscheduled for 2025, therefore leaves its fans and critics curious. Even more so when this revelation is accompanied by more details on the style and inspirations of the record, on which the artist confided in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar American. With this new project, Miley Cyrus intends to reconnect with her rock influences and take a more drastic musical turn than four years ago, drawing in particular from the cult album The Wall (1979) de Pink Floyd…
L’album Something Beautifula pop and glamorous version of The Wall de Pink Floyd
Experimental, this opera rock influence Miley Cyrus both for the composition of the songs and for the aesthetics of the album. “My idea was to redo The Wallbut with a better, more glamorous, pop culture-filled wardrobe” she admits to the American magazine. Great ambitions – to measure up to one of the best-known albums of the last four decades – which do not seem to intimidate the chameleon artist, more confident than ever after the trials and failures of recent years.
Besides the Pink Floydthe singer also admits to having been influenced by the horror film Mandy (2019) by Panos Cosmatos, more particularly by the role of broken lover and thirsty for revenge played by the actor Nicolas Cage. A theme far from being foreign to Miley Cyrus, whose hit Flowers openly addressed to her ex-husband Liam Hemsworth quickly established itself as an anthem to all broken hearts and in public love, in the wake of many other pop stars…
Her next album, in which her boyfriend, the drummer Maxx Morandoplayed a role, will therefore undoubtedly speak again of destruction and heartache. And, if Miley Cyrus initially considered adapting the film into a musical, her discussions with the director Cloths Cosmatos ultimately nourished the visual aesthetic of Something Beautifulon which the latter collaborates. In short, a mix between rock, revenge, pop and gore, which is already shaping up to be a cult…
