Miley Cyrus is working on a new album inspired by Pink Floyd’s ‘The Wall’ (1979).

In a new interview with Harper’s Bazaar, the Flowers hitmaker opened up on the follow-up to last year’s ‘Endless Summer Vacation’ – titled ‘Something Beautiful’ – and its visual counterpart.

Explaining the inspiration behind the project and how she first saw ‘The Wall’ as a teenager with one of her brothers and a close friend, while smoking cannabis and wearing 1970s-style fur coats, she shared: “We really leaned in. And so I have this heart-first attachment to it. My idea was making The Wall, but with a better wardrobe and more glamorous and filled with pop culture.”

The album, she says, is “hypnotising and glamorous”, elaborating: “It’s a concept album that’s an attempt to medicate somewhat of a sick culture through music.

“I would like to be a human psychedelic for people. I don’t want anyone trying to be like me or imitate me or even be inspired by me. I want to impact frequencies in your body that make you vibrate at a different level.”

Discussing the visual element, which the Used To Be Young hitmaker described as “driving the sound, she added: “It was important for me that every song has these healing sound properties. The songs, whether they’re about destruction or heartbreak or death, they’re presented in a way that is beautiful, because the nastiest times of our life do have a point of beauty.

“They are the shadow, they are the charcoal, they are the shading. You can’t have a painting without highlights and contrast.”

Working on the record with Miley is her boyfriend Maxx Morando, along with previous collaborator Shawn Everett. Although a release date has yet to be confirmed, ‘Something Beautiful’ is expected out last year.
