Ladyhawke was worried about making her new album because everyone kept going on about it

  • May 16, 2012
  • Brad O'Mance

Ladyhawke was worried about making her second album 'Anxiety' because everyone kept telling her to be.

Talking to Spin, the easily led 'Black White & Blue' hitmaker explained: "In the recu­per­a­tion time after finishing touring I started to over think everything. People would say to me, 'Oh, you're working the tough second album, eh?' And I'd say, 'It's supposed to be tough?'"

"It became tough because I was building it up in my head. That's where the new album's name came from. I was getting lost in my own head," she continued.

Mind you, she loves stress does our Ladyhawke: "I love having a fire in my belly. That was something that I had because I was really scared about dis­ap­point­ing people, and I knew I was going to go in a different direction. I wasn't going to stick with the same vibe that I had on the first album. I was really, really excited and keen to try something new but at the same time as taking that on I knew I might be dis­ap­point­ing some people."

The actually a bit dis­ap­point­ing 'Anxiety' is finally released on May 28.
