After a dark period of mental health stalked most of his 2018 and 19, Odell wrote his way through it.
He let down his guard and poured his feelings into new music that will form his fourth album, Monsters.
It drops June 25th, and is available to preorder now.

Monster
The first single from the album, Numb, dropped last month.
His latest release is monster v.1., which came out earlier this month, and was initially inspired by Trump, according to a press release.
More specifically, climate change activist Great Thunberg's staring him down at the UN Climate Summit in 2019.
The song soon morphed into something more abstract; a self-help mantra for Odell's ongoing battle.
In a statement, he said, 'In 2019, my anxiety got so bad that I had to stop making music for a while.'
'there was a period when it felt like I couldn’t leave the house without having a panic attack.'

'I wrote this song, monster, about trying to overcome my struggles with those mental health problems.'
'It makes me super sad to listen at moments because it brings back some tough times, but I am super proud of it and hope it resonates with people who are dealing with similar struggles.'
'The first version is the song in its purest form, which I wanted you all to hear first, as the lyrics mean so much to me.'
