Prior to its release, the Icelandic singer [tweeted](https://twitter.com/bjork/status/1566821128860999680?s=20&t=V1-EAim_cJFCuE6zzcPr4A), ‘Atopos’ is “kinda like fossora’s passport. Sonically a heavy bottom-ended bass world. We have 6 bass clarinets, punchy sub drilling, nesting and digging us into the ground.” [björk : atopos](https://www.youtube.com/embed/9FD2mUonh5s?feature=oembed) The latest album comes five years after her previous release, ‘Utopia’, in 2017. ‘Fossora’, the singer’s 10th album, will be a 10-track LP inspired by the passing of Björk’s mother in 2018.

Amidst hosting The Kelly Clarkson Show, and being a judge on The Voice and American Song Contest, Clarkson has kept herself busy since [winning](https://www.ticketfairy.com/word/2022/09/05/successful-artists-who-auditioned-for-talent-shows) the first-ever edition of the ‘American Idol’. “It’s coming out next year. And this is an important album,” [said](https://variety.com/2022/music/news/kelly-clarkson-new-album-2023-divorce-songs-1235362382/) Clarkson in an interview with Variety.  The album will be out sometime in 2023 and will chronicle the emotional journey the singer went through during her divorce. “I’m through it now, but there is somebody else who is in it, and that’s a hard place to be, especially if you feel alone. It’s a hard thing to describe, it’s a hard thing to go through publicly, it’s hard with kids. This record, I think I wrote this for a reason — not just for me, but maybe someone else can benefit from it,” she said regarding the correlation between her divorce and the album. **New tracks and music videos out this week –** [Megan Thee Stallion - Ungrateful (feat.
