What does the new Olivia Rodrigo vinyl look like?
While there are a few standard editions out there, the ultimate version for collectors is the stunning Indies Exclusive White Vinyl.

The album artwork moves away from the signature deep purple themes of SOUR and GUTS, embracing a softer, melancholic pink aesthetic that contrasts beautifully with the white vinyl.
Does the new album have any guest features?
Yes! In a historic career milestone, the album features Robert Smith of The Cure on the track "What's Wrong with Me". Olivia shocked fans by debuting the song live with Robert Smith at the Primavera Sound 2026 festival just days before the album launch. This marks Olivia Rodrigo's first-ever official collaboration for an original song on a studio album.
What is the musical style of the new album?
According to Olivia’s recent interview with British Vogue, the record features a shift toward "sad love songs" rooted in deep yearning, fear, and alternative-pop textures. Produced once again by her longtime collaborator Dan Nigro, the album features hit lead singles like "Drop Dead" and the heavily 80s-goth-influenced track "The Cure".
How many tracks are on the new record?

Is Olivia Rodrigo touring for this album?
Yes! Olivia has announced The Unraveled Tour. The massive 86-date global arena tour kicks off on 25th September 2026 in Hartford and includes a highly anticipated run of dates at London's O2 Arena in May 2027. Incredible alternative acts like The Last Dinner Party and Wolf Alice are scheduled to support her on select tour dates.
How can I tell a first pressing of SOUR from a reissue?
For collectors looking backward to her 2021 debut SOUR, it can be tough to distinguish pressings. True first-generation UK pressings feature specific matrix number configurations etched into the run-out groove next to the center label, alongside a parentally advised warning printed directly onto the front sleeve jacket, rather than as a removable sticker.
