Having garnered overwhelming support from teenagers worldwide with her dark and emotional pop sound, she has now donned a new persona to create her latest dystopian and cinematic masterpiece, *HADES*.\n\nMelanie Martinez is an American Gothic pop star who fully showcases her multifaceted talents by expressing her art and stories not only through music but also through visuals. Since her emergence on the music scene in 2012, she caused a sensation with her 2015 debut album *CRYBABY*—which went double platinum—and the anthems born from it, such as “PityParty” and “PlayDate.” Her momentum shows no signs of slowing down; her subsequent albums, *K-12* (2019, certified Platinum) and *PORTALS* (2023), both debuted in the Top 3 on the Billboard 200. All three albums achieved the remarkable feat of debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard Alternative Chart. Known for her dark and emotional pop sound, which has garnered overwhelming support from teenagers around the world, she has now completed a new album.\n\nThe single “Possession,” released ahead of the album, surpassed 2.7 million streams on Spotify within 24 hours of its release and has since accumulated over 10 million streams. This marks the fastest streaming record of Melanie’s career and is the biggest hit by a female artist for a debut release in 2026. In this track, she blends sweetness and darkness in perfect balance, showcasing her presence as a one-of-a-kind pop star.\n\n\nThe long-awaited new album, *HADES*. Named after the king of the underworld, this work sees her doing more than just writing songs; she builds a “world” of her own with unwavering determination. The “era” unfolding in this album presents a dystopian, cinematic landscape that evokes a somewhat unsettling sense of déjà vu. Rather than fantasy, it resembles a cracked mirror reflecting the present moment. Melanie herself has this to say about the album:\n“Every track on this album explores the various ‘traps’ set by the malevolent, patriarchal energy known as ‘HADES.’ This isn’t a prophecy of a dystopian future. It’s about recognizing destructive patterns that already exist—the same dynamics that repeat themselves in different places. Domination disguised as protection. Cruelty justified by logic. Exploitation marketed as opportunity. Once you notice the threads, you can no longer ignore them.”\n\nWith over 30 billion streams worldwide, 5.54 billion views on official YouTube videos, and more than 62.2 million followers across all platforms— Melanie Martinez expands and reconstructs the framework of alternative pop, transforming it into an immersive, innovative, and one-of-a-kind world of her own creation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.GARBAGE\u003cbr\u003e2.IS THIS A CULT?\u003cbr\u003e3.POSSESSION\u003cbr\u003e4.WHITE BOY WITH A GUN\u003cbr\u003e5.DISNEY PRINCESS\u003cbr\u003e6.GRUDGES\u003cbr\u003e7.MONOPOLY MAN\u003cbr\u003e8.AVOIDANT\u003cbr\u003e9.MONOLITH\u003cbr\u003e10.WEIGHT WATCHERS\u003cbr\u003e11.THE PLAGUE\u003cbr\u003e12.BATSHIT INTELLIGENCE\u003cbr\u003e13.GUTTER\u003cbr\u003e14.UNCANNY VALLEY\u003cbr\u003e15.THE VATICAN\u003cbr\u003e16.HELL'S FRONT PORCH\u003cbr\u003e17.CHATROOM\u003cbr\u003e18.THE LAST TWO PEOPLE ON EARTH\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52637724377377,"sku":"75678589966","price":20.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/75678589966.jpg?v=1777964308","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-ch\/products\/75678589966","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
