Ellie Goulding has announced that her widely anticipated fifth studio album, Higher Than Heaven, will drop on February 3, 2023, via Interscope Records. Goulding also shared a new track from the album, “Let It Die”, along with an accompanying video.

Goulding had recently released “Easy Lover” and “All By Myself,” her collaborative release with Alok and Sigala.

Speaking about Higher Than Heaven, Ellie explains “There was definitely a darkness about [the past two years] that was palpable in the studio, with everyone having gone through it differently. I think for that reason, nobody wanted to sit and agonise over some relationship or some drama. So that’s how this album came together.”

“[Higher Than Heaven is] about being passionately in love,” she added. “But it’s a hyper form of love, almost like a drug induced feeling. It feels almost artificial and there’s the potential for a crash.”

Higher Than Heaven will be a follow-up to Goulding’s fourth studio album, 2020’s Brightest Blue. It was released on July 17, 2020 through Polydor Records.
