Adele's 25, her new album featuring "Hello".
180 gram LP pressed at RTI.
First new music since the Oscar-winning single "Skyfall" in 2012.
"My last record was a break-up record and if I had to label this one I would call it a make-up record. I'm making up with myself. Making up for lost time. Making up for everything I ever did and never did". - Adele.
"... the lion's share of Adele's appeal stems from her authenticity. A lot of people can sing, and sing marvelously, but it's far more rare to find someone as authentic in their delivery as she is ... On 25, she once again has something to say, with a voice that demands to be heard". - The A.V. Club.
"25 is certainly the equal of its predecessor. What it sacrifices in youthful rawness it makes up in maturity and sheer class. Adele Adkins has taken her time over her third album and it shows". - The Telegraph U.K.
With 25, her third album, and probably the last in a trilogy of albums with an age in the title, the 27-year-old multi-Grammy songstress Adele says 25 is about geting to know "who I've become without realizing. And I'm sorry it took so long but, you know, life happened".
The album leads off with an appropriately-titled salutation to the fans who've missed her - "Hello" is the first single. The video for the song was directed by celebrated young Canadian director Xavier Dolan and casts Adele as alone and calling a past lover to apologize for "everything I've done" but finding no one answers her call. The song was written by Adele and her producer Greg Kurstin, who has also worked with Sia, P!nk, Peaches, Beck and the Flaming Lips.
The new album also features songs by Bruno Mars, Danger Mouse and Tobias Jesso Jr. [Hide]
