***Girl With No Face*** is the fifth studio album and third major-label studio album by Canadian singer-songwriter Allie X. It is set to be released on February 23rd, 2024, through Twin Music Inc, and was made available for digital download, CD, vinyl and cassette.

## Background

The album is Allie X's first in four years, and started in 2020 during the COVID-19 lockdown. Unlike her other records such as *Cape God* and *Super Sunset*, which she always tried to "tie a bow around" with a clear concept and message, "Girl With No Face" is more mysterious.

Allie first started to tease the album on December 4th, 2020 when she responded to a comment asking what it would sound like, saying it would sound like a Disney Princess produced by electronic German band *Kraftwerk*.

On November 21st, 2021, after the release of the deluxe version of Allie's 2020 studio album *Cape God*, she mentioned being "lost in the vortex of creating a new world" In an email sent out to fans, then on November 29th, 2021, while celebrating her song *Bitch* reaching 40 Million streams on Spotify, Allie revealed that she's producing the whole album on her own,

> "I've produced my next album myself, which is an incredibly challenging and intimidating process to say the least."

On December 1st, 2022, Allie revealed in her Spotify wrapped video that a new record was on the way, and on August 3rd, after a long period of being quiet, Allie revealed that she feels almost ready to share what she’s been working on.

On October 3rd, 2023, she teased new music on her social medias, and on October 12th, 2023, she officially started the era by announcing the release of the first single off the album, *Black Eye*.

With the release of the title track, *Girl With No Face*, on November 16th, 2023, Allie X posted the album cover to her socials, also announcing pre orders for the album being up for sale as Vinyl, CD and a cassette on her webstore.

On November 13, 2023, the title track Girl With No Face was announced to be released as the second single on November 16th, 2023, and was released with a visualizer.

On January 18, 2024, Off With Her Tits was released as the fourth single from the album with a visualizer.

## Composition

The album strays away from her previous work, transporting back to the eighties and late Seventies. Allie X describes the album as "aggressive, indulgent and bold".

Allie wrote and produced the album by herself,

> "It almost made me dizzy because I went so deep into it. I said, ‘I’m not going to be trying to please anyone else, because there’s literally no one else in this room.’ I may have created something that’s completely off-trend here, but it’s definitely something that I enjoy."

There are touches of Joy Division, Cocteau Twins, Blondie, and Vince Clarke across the album, and lots of LinnDrum beats. Allie also says that one song "has an early Madonna thing and then a bit of Kate Bush as well."
