Lorde releases ANOTHER new song and finally reveals when her album will come out

Lorde has released a new song and announced that her second album Melodrama will arrive on June 16.

Liability, a heartfelt piano ballad, is the second taster of the upcoming album following the release of Green Light.

Posting the song to her twitter, Lorde told fans "I wanted you to have a new song from Melodrama, a new chapter of the story - this is Liability."

Liability's slower tempo and simple production contrasts with the energetic Green Light, confirming Lorde's promise that "the album is very diverse". 

The June 16 release date for Melodrama will follow Lorde's festival slots at Coachella, Governor's Ball and Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival in the US.

Lorde co-produced the album with Jack Antonoff. Pure Heroine producer Joel Little worked with Lorde in the writing stages but did not contribute further.
