Untitled

Love Monster is the debut studio album by Australian alternative pop singer-songwriter Amy Shark.

Shark said "I think I want to start explaining it like the first two seasons of a great series you've just found. It's full of so much drama. There's first loves, there's rejection and lies and beautiful moments and nasty moments and there's a death. It's a great series."[1]

The album will be supported by an Australian national tour throughout August and September 2018.[2]

Singles

"I Said Hi" is the album's lead single, released on 13 April 2018. The song is about overcoming adversity and a nod to perseverance. Shark explains: "It's about the struggle of the ups and downs of the industry. It hasn't been a complete Cinderella story for me from day one. It's taken a while."[3]

"Don't Turn Around" was originally released on 8 June 2018 as an album pre-order track,[4] and was later confirmed as the album's second single.[5] In a statement, Shark said: "It's a song that talks about the desire to run into someone you have feelings for, a history with who knows you too well."[6]

"Psycho" was released on 22 June 2018 as an album pre-order track and the album's third single.[7] The song tells the emotional, relatable saga of vulnerability and the complications that often come with falling in love.[8]

The album includes the single "Adore" from Shark's 2017 Night Thinker EP.
