Album Overview
Melanie Martinez enters a new world on PORTALS, her third studio album and the follow-up to 2019’s K-12. Released in 2023, the album marks a transformation in Martinez’s visual and musical storytelling, moving beyond the Cry Baby character while exploring themes of death, rebirth, identity, relationships, and the cyclical nature of life.
The 13-track album opens with “DEATH” before moving through “VOID,” “TUNNEL VISION,” “FAERIE SOIRÉE,” “LIGHT SHOWER,” and “SPIDER WEB.” Side two continues with songs including “BATTLE OF THE LARYNX,” “THE CONTORTIONIST,” “NYMPHOLOGY,” “EVIL,” and the closing “WOMB,” creating a complete narrative arc built around transformation and renewal.
Across PORTALS, Martinez blends alternative pop and electronic production with rock-influenced instrumentation, strings, atmospheric textures, and theatrical songwriting. The album expands the immersive world-building of her earlier records while introducing a darker, more otherworldly aesthetic and a new character representing the transition between life and death.
This 2023 limited edition presents the complete album on Bloodshot Translucent vinyl through Atlantic Records. Each record features translucent vinyl with red bloodshot-style swirls, and the exact appearance may vary between individual copies.
