Sexodus is the fifth studio album by Swedish dance-pop group Army of Lovers. It was released worldwide on November 24,2023. [1] In 2024,it was reissued to include two additional songs. A third reissue,titled Sexodus (Orgasmic Edition),included a bonus EP,Remixodus. [2]
An idea for a 30-year anniversary album had been in talks before COVID-19,but plans fell through once the pandemic broke out. The band were motivated to continue work on the album after being contacted by Olya Polyakova,who expressed interest in collaborating with them. [3]
The songs "Tragedy" and "Signed on My Tattoo" had originally been released on Army of Lovers' 2013 compilation album, Big Battle of Egos .
In addition to re-releases,Sexodus contains re-recordings of two previous Army of Lovers songs:
On November 24,2023,Sexodus was released worldwide under the music label Bullgod Kommunikation AB. It was initially distributed via streaming services. [4]
In 2024,Sexodus was reissued under the Estonian music label Maschina. The reissue incorporated two more songs from Army of Lovers' previous album, Big Battle of Egos .
Army of Lovers' entry for Melodifestivalen 2013,"Rockin' The Ride",was added as the eleventh track. "Crashing Down",a cover of BWO's "Love Came Crashing Down",was added as the twelfth track.
As this version was only released on vinyl and cassette, [5] it was split so as to have six songs per side.
Maschina released a 2-disc Digipak titled Sexodus (Orgasmic Edition). The first disc contained all 12 tracks from the earlier reissue. The second disc was an EP titled Remixodus,composed of remixes of the first five tracks. [2]
With the exception of "People Are Lonely",all lead vocals are provided by Alexander Bard,Jean-Pierre Barda,and Dominika Peczynski (collectively credited as Army of Lovers).
