Since breaking out with her debut Youth Novels (2008) and achieving mainstream success with “I Follow Rivers,” Li followed with Wounded Rhymes (2011), I Never Learn (2014), So Sad So Sexy (2018), and the immersive audiovisual album EYEEYE (2022).
On The Afterparty album cover art, her face warped by translucent tights. “I find that we’re in an era where everyone is talking about, ‘My higher self', F- that. This is an album dealing with your lower self: your need for revenge, your shame, despair, all of it."
Written in Los Angeles and recorded in Stockholm with a 17-piece string orchestra, “apocalyptic bongos,” and a whole lot of flute, The Afterparty is a dance record in scope.
