Adam Lambert has discussed details of his upcoming sophomore album, discussing his musical evolution and promising a “Less Camp” release. The Grammy-nominated singer has been in the studio with OneRepublic singer Ryan Teddler working on the follow-up to his hugely successful debut ‘For You Entertainment’.
Speaking about his second album, Lambert told Billboard: “I think if anything, it might be a little less campy than the last one. With [‘For Your Entertainment’], I really wanted to go high glam; it was always a vibe and a concept I was in love with and I did it for a year.”
He continued: “I think evolution is good and I'm attracted to the slightly more serious...not so much fantasy or a mask put on - which is fun, great f***ing rock-n-roll - but I'm very drawn to music and artists that are singing from the heart about real things.”
Lambert went on to discuss how his current musical tastes are shaping his second release. He said: “The new Adele album blows my mind. Last year, that Sia album was on repeat. And I also love electronic music. Really, I listen to a lot of it. The pop music that's out right now I love, but I've become attracted to more organic sounds again. Even if they're electronic, I want them to feel like they came from the earth, tangible, more primal. It's going to be great.”
He added: “It's moody so far, but who knows. I should probably stop now because last time we did this, I said all this stuff about the album and then it was, like, "Oh that didn't make the album." So I don't wanna jinx it.”
