After celebrating a Super Bowl win this weekend, Taylor Swift and her Eras Tour are back in Melbourne, Australia, where the singer had a surprise announcement for the audience: another variant of her upcoming album, The Department of Tortured Poetswith a different bonus track titled “The Bolter.”
Much like her announcement of her new LP post-Grammy win, Swift had Friday’s news ready, revealing that “The Bolter” edition of TTPD – with a different cover – is available for pre-order from now until February 19 on its official site; the initial version of TTPD is included with the bonus track “The Manuscript” and is still available on Swift’s site.
Although Swift did not play any Tortured poets tracks during his first night in Australia, he told the crowd about his eleventh studio LP. “Tortured Poets is an album,” she said, “I think more than any of the albums I’ve made, I needed to make it. It was really a lifesaver for me. Just the things I was going through and the things I was writing about. “It kind of reminded me why writing songs was something that really helps me get through my life.”
Swift added: “Basically, I’m really excited for April 19th because The Department of Tortured Poets It’s coming out on that date and I can’t wait for you to hear all those songs then.”
Swift revealed her new album at the 2024 Grammys when she took the stage to accept the award for Best Pop Vocal Album (Midnights). The fact that it’s her (her lucky number) 13th Grammy Award winner had fans speculating that Swift would make an announcement. (His backup plan for her, if she didn’t win, was to announce TTPD at last weekend’s Tokyo concerts.) Swift also shared the album’s 16-song tracklist (plus a bonus track), which includes features from Post Malone and Florence + the Machine.
