Hayley Williams Surprise Releases Third Studio Album

Surprise! Hayley Williams has officially released her third album, Ego Death at a Bachelorette Party.

The 17-track album features the 16 songs Williams previously shared with fans who made a purchase from her hair company Good Dye. She later pulled the songs from the website and uploaded each song to streaming services. Additionally, the album includes a previously unreleased track, “Parachute.”

The album was produced by Daniel James and features contributions from Joey Howard and Paramore touring bandmate Brian Robert Jones. Jim-E Stack, known for his work with Lorde and Bon Iver, also contributed to the song “True Believer.” The record will be released on various formats, including Black and “Zissou Clear-Wave” vinyl, six additional vinyl variants available at various retailers, and a limited CD release with only 1,500 copies available.
