British artist A.A. WILLIAMS, acclaimed and defined by her musical interplay of fragility and force, unveils today the artwork and track list for her striking new full-length album “Solstice”, set for release on 5th June 2026 through RPM, alongside the video for her powerful new single ‘Poison’.
A.A. WILLIAMS says:
“’Poison’ is a song of learning not to fear freedom. Restraints slowly melt away, you push yourself, you long for more. Recklessness begins to consume reason, limitations are forgotten, euphoria and self-sabotage look like one and the same. Desperate to satisfy the craving you torch everything you’ve built. As the old world crumbles, and you rise, unafraid.
Immersed in a shadowy, dreamlike —or perhaps nightmarish— world where darkness meets elegance, A.A. WILLIAMS together with visionary collective Gruppa13 (renowned for their stunning work with artists like BEHEMOTH or IGORRR), crafted a hauntingly powerful visual suspended between vulnerability and something far more unsettling. Watch below and let it consume you.
“Solstice” finds A.A. WILLIAMS standing at the threshold between shadow and renewal, shaping songs that feel carved from storms and starlight. Known for her haunting vocals, cinematic dynamics and emotional clarity, Williams expands her sonic world with music that moves like a ritual through shifting seasons. Moments of stark intimacy open into surging crescendos as guitars swell and crash like gathering weather, anchored by a formidable sense of weight and scale. Strings glow with fragile warmth before giving way to waves of heavy distortion and all-encompassing catharsis, while her voice rises from quiet confession to commanding intensity. Drawn from years of global touring, acclaimed collaborations and boundary-pushing reinterpretations, “Solstice” captures an artist in full command of her craft. The album is intimate yet immense, delicate yet thunderous — guiding listeners through darkness with both vulnerability and force toward a distant, resolute dawn.
