Icona Pop Announce New Album ‘Ritual’ and Infectious Single ‘Dance To This’

Icona Pop have announced their return with new album ‘Ritual’ and the infectious single ‘Dance To This’.

The Swedish duo of Caroline Hjelt and Aino Jawo will release their fourth studio album and the follow-up to 2023’s ‘Club Romantech’ on August 14 via Ultra Records/Iconic Sound Recordings.

The band have already released the record’s emotional lead single and title track, and have now followed it up with the twitching, addictive banger ‘Dance To This’, written by the duo and produced by Sebastian Furrer.

The track’s propulsive energy is matched by its restless lyrics, including “Kinda wanna burn a bridge / Kinda wanna be a bitch / Kinda wanna take a risk / Kinda wanna dance to this”.

Aino has said: “The production definitely reminds me of old Icona Pop. We could perform it live, but we could also put it in a DJ set.”

Hjelt added: “It’s one of those nights when you’re finding yourself by going out… it’s the moment you see yourself dancing and connected to your essence.”
