About “Visions by Alice Merton”
Alice Merton paints futures in bold strokes with “Visions,” a shimmering pop confession that turns inner monologues into soaring hooks—equal parts whisper and war cry.
Diving into “Visions,” the track pulses with Merton’s signature indie-pop edge: crisp synths layered over driving rhythms that evoke a sense of forward motion, while her vocals—raw yet radiant—carry themes of self-trust and resilience. It’s moody in the best way, shifting from hazy introspection to an empowering lift-off, produced with a light touch that lets the lyrics breathe. Think less polished perfection, more honest exhale, mirroring the song’s core idea of chasing dreams without apology.
The album Visions expands this into a full sonic manifesto, a 13-track exploration of self-determination, loyalty to one’s path, and shrugging off outside noise. Merton’s artistic vision here feels like a homecoming after years on the move—celebrating the strength in vulnerability, much like her breakthrough “No Roots” but evolved, with nods to fleeting joys and hard-won clarity across cuts like “Ignorance is Bliss” and “Willow Trees in Tokyo.”
Slated for release on January 16, 2026, via Paper Plane Records Int., Visions has been teasing fans since last fall with singles that dropped like breadcrumbs: “Ignorance is Bliss” in September 2025, followed by “Cruel Intentions” and “Landline.” Co-produced by Merton and Jennifer Decilveo, it’s got that intimate polish, and the Spotify pre-save is live for early access. Catch the album launch show tomorrow night—January 15—in Berlin at FluxBau, where she’ll perform fresh off the press, tickets including a physical copy for the die-hards.
At this stage in her career, post-S.I.D.E.S. in 2022 and a string of tours that solidified her as pop’s thoughtful trailblazer, “Visions” marks Merton’s boldest leap yet—more collaborative, more confessional, leaning into electronic flourishes that hint at broader horizons. It’s not just a return; it’s proof she’s redefining her sound on her terms, weaving personal growth into tracks that resonate like late-night revelations. In a discography built on anthems of flux, this one stands as a beacon, urging listeners to claim their own uncharted maps.
What elevates “Visions” in the mix is its role as the emotional anchor—track three, clocking in at 3:27 of pure propulsion—bridging the album’s playful detours with its deeper dives into esteem and endurance. As Merton herself has hinted in previews, it’s about that split-second where doubt gives way to drive, a theme that’s catnip for anyone navigating their own reinvention.
With the full rollout just days away, Visions is poised to soundtrack a new wave of self-made stories, blending Merton’s German-Irish-Canadian heritage into a sound that’s effortlessly worldly.
