Lorde has said that she finalised the title of her forthcoming third album while on a recent trip to Antarctica.

The singer also announced recently that she plans to release a 100-page photo book documenting her trip to the continent.

The New Zealander has been teasing new music throughout 2020. She promised that she would give her fans "something in return” next year, if they voted in the New Zealand election – which saw Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern secure a second term.

Lorde has now confirmed in an interview with New Zealand's Newshub that her follow-up to 2017’s Melodrama has a title, inspired by her 2019 trip to the wilderness.

“It’s such an alien environment and it’s so dazzling, straight away,” the singer and songwriter said of her trip. “I had this very distinct moment of thinking, ‘This is the coolest your life will ever get. Like, this is it.'

“I actually decided on the album name right around that trip," she added. "Just coming back from that trip I thought: ‘This is what it is.'"
