Background

The first single of the album, "Never Been Hurt" in collaboration with BEAUZ, was released on 19 November 2021, alongside a music video. [3] The second single "No Control" was released in collaboration with MADGRRL on 17 December 2021. [4]

The third single, "I'm Just a Monster Underneath, My Darling" was released on 28 January 2022, alongside a lyric video. When discussing the song, Krewella stated it's "a story told from dual perspectives: both the victim and antagonist, the predator and prey." [5] With this release, they announced their third studio album "The Body Never Lies", which released on March 4 2022. [6] The album cover, alongside the single covers and lyric videos for "No Control" and "I'm Just a Monster Underneath, My Darling", were created by American designer Olivia Van Rye. [7] A music video for "Drive Away" was released alongside the album. [8]

The album title "The Body Never Lies" appears as lyrics in two tracks on the album. In an interview with We Rave You, they stated the line is about "feeling, remembering, and being in our distinct vessels that encapsulate our soul and memories", and that it had been inspired by an exert from Jahan's notebook. [9] They also discussed the experience of writing the album primarily during lock-downs of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Krewella embarked on a headline tour featuring 23 dates across the United States, commencing on April 1st. They also played at several major music festivals in the wake of the album, including Ultra Music Festival [10] and Tomorrowland. [11] Following the conclusion of the tour, Krewella went on an indefinite hiatus, eventually returning to releasing music in June 2025 with "Crying On The Dancefloor". [12]
