Gracie Abrams releases third album 'Daughter From Hell

Singer‑songwriter Gracie Abrams issued her third studio album, Daughter From Hell, on Friday via Interscope. The 16‑track record explores darker themes, repeatedly using knife imagery to symbolize personal pain and crisis. Production is co‑handled by longtime collaborator Aaron Dessner, with contributions from Justin Vernon (Bon Iver), Marcus Mumford, and Abrams’s boyfriend Paul Mescal, who co‑wrote "Imaginary Friend." Reviewers note a broader sonic palette, including electric guitars, orchestral strings and bedroom‑pop whispers, while retaining her introspective lyricism. The title track and songs such as "The Knife," "Look at My Life" and "Humming" showcase heightened confidence and vocal range. Critics gave the album four out of five stars, calling it her strongest work to date and highlighting its blend of melancholy and ambition.
