Background
[edit]In June 2011, Guy Sigsworth, producer of Morissette's Flavors of Entanglement, wrote on Twitter that he was in Los Angeles working with "certain amazing Canadian lady".[1] On February 28, Morissette shared a video, shot in May 2011, of her recording a song, and Sigsworth's voice behind the scenes made it obvious she was working with him. In May 2011, Morissette shared a song called "Into a King", on the occasion of a one-year anniversary of her marriage and co-written with Sigsworth. She also recorded "Magical Child" for the compilation album Every Mother Counts. In November 2011, Morissette appeared on the American Music Awards, saying she had written 31 songs to choose final twelve for the record.
The Rolling Stone magazine announced that Morissette's new album would be released in June 2012, and shared the titles of songs "Havoc" and "Celebrity". The magazine also wrote that nearly every tune has a monster chorus.[2] On May 2, Billboard magazine wrote that Morissette's new album would be released on August 28, 2012 through Collective Sounds. The album will be distributed by Sony's RED.[3] On May 23, the album became available for pre-order at Amazon.[4]
