The message, shared by around 4,000 users and with more than 37,000 I likewas replied by the government spokesperson, Pilar Alegría, who wrote: “It was a wonderful afternoon listening to Lux“The album, the Catalan artist’s fourth, has been in the works for three years and has been the subject of great speculation, dissection and analysis before and after its release. The artist has broken some of the unwritten rules about how an album is released in 2025 and fuels the collective intrigue.
Rosalia publishes Lux after three years of work in which he explored his concerns and his relationship with spirituality and God. In an interview with The weekly countryreleased this Sunday, the singer confesses that she has no answer as to how an album like this is born: “Sometimes things happen without one realizing it. I think that, in this type of process, one is not aware of it and without realizing it one is already starting. I have always had a connection with spirituality and I have always been curious about languages, and so, little by little, I surrounded myself with concrete readings, listening to more classical records, even if when I studied music I was already surrounded by classical musicians. The word lux has always buzzing in my head.”
As for the religious undertones of her new album, the singer says The weekly country that he is attracted “to the idea of post-religion, that there can be a more inclusive and open way of understanding faith and spirituality” and confesses that “there are ideas in different religions” that attract him and in which he “resonates”: “I resonate with Buddhism, Islam, Christianity, Hinduism. I think everyone has things that I feel like.”
