Slip into the hazy thrill of “Cheap Hotel,” the second single from FKA twigs‘ EUSEXUA Afterglow, her full-bodied follow-up to the transcendent EUSEXUA that dropped earlier this year. Out November 14, this new album expands on that euphoric core with deeper dives into desire and escape, pulling from techno warehouse nights and those raw, post-rave moments. Twigs first teased “Cheap Hotel” just days ago on September 22, dropping snippets that capture a summer fling’s electric pull, all set against the album’s blend of confessional lyrics and pulsating beats. It’s her way of chasing that coined feeling of eusexua – pure, body-shaking bliss that blurs the line between human and something more.
From the lines we have so far, like “At the cheap hotel right behind the club / In room twenty or twenty four,” it paints a scene of impulsive connection, mini-bar indulgences, and that casual invite: “Are you coming on your own? / Do you wanna bring a friend?” Fans on Reddit are already calling it a mood-setter for the project’s autumn rollout, linking it to the intimate highs of tracks like “Perfectly” from the original. With Afterglow confirmed as a standalone evolution – not just a deluxe but a fresh chapter – twigs keeps building on her run of acclaimed releases, from Magdalene’s vulnerability to Caprisongs’ playfulness. This single hints at more layered production, maybe echoing the East Bloc techno vibes she raved about on Kimmel, making the whole thing feel alive and immediate.
Dive into the Cheap Hotel lyrics below and unpack its steamy escape. Don’t miss other EUSEXUA Afterglow tracks like Perfectly for more of FKA twigs’ euphoric glow.
