Halsey’s ‘Manic’ Named Triple J Feature Album This Week

Halsey’s new album Manic will well and truly be stuck in your head by the end of the week, with the singer picking up triple j’s Feature Album this week.

We named Halsey’s third LP our Album Of The Week, noting that, "while [Halsey's] previous records have been heavily concept-based, revolving around explorations of fantasy worlds with storylines and themes that link each track together, Manic is deeply personal.”

She also joined The Green Room with Neil Griffiths last week from LA to share insight into the release, teasing an Australian headline tour in the process.

Mac Miller's posthumous album, Circles, will also feature heavily on the youth broadcaster this week, following his passing from an accidental drug overdose in 2018.

As always, triple j has ensured a slew of local music makes the cut, with The Amity Affliction’s Soak Me In Bleach, Jack River’s Dark Star, JOY’s Anime, The Jungle Giants’ Sending Me Ur L, Peking Duk’s Move (feat. Alissa Xayalith) and Taka Perry’s 21 Orbits (feat Yaw/yergur) all added alongside tunes from international favourites Khalid and Sløtface.

Over on the Spot Additions playlist, The Chats’ The Clap appears following their recent album announcement, as does Arno Faraji’s Bass Jumpin', Cable Ties’ Sandcastles, Saint Lane’s Hickeys and Soccer Mommy’s Circle The Drain.
