We will be receiving new The Weeknd tonight.

It’s been two-years since The Weeknd delivered his highly-regarded album, Starboy–the follow-up to his transcendent 2015 project, Beauty Behind the Madness. And while the two project’s replayability is akin to none, we’re still, and always will be, hungry for new Weeknd music. Through a series of social media hints, like posting recording sessions, it looked like that highly-anticipated follow-up was closer than we might have expected. Today, The Weeknd has officially confirmed that we will receive a new album–tonight.

Entitled My Dear Melancholy, Weeknd announced this release through his Instagram with a simple yet effective caption, “tonight”. When you’re as much of a megastar as The Weeknd is, who needs a heads up–the world will adhere to his schedule.

While we don’t know too much about the project, we do know who The Weeknd is and what The Weeknd has done. And that is deliver incredible album after the next. Hopefully, My Dear Melancholy will be another sound addition to his storied catalogue.
