RØRY releases BLOODLETTING ahead of biggest UK headline tour

“I realised I was sick from being nice. BLOODLETTING was about reclaiming [the parts of myself] I’d become disconnected from.”

RØRY unleashes BLOODLETTING and lines up Delilah Bon and Mothica for 2027 UK tour

RØRY has released her second album, BLOODLETTING, a heavy, sharply exposed record shaped by grief, rage and the process of confronting emotions left buried for too long.

Out now, the 13-track album finds RØRY pushing further into abrasive territory while retaining the direct emotional writing that has defined her recent work. Long-time collaborators Kingdoms handled production, with additional production and mixing from Dan Lancaster, whose credits include Bring Me The Horizon and Muse.

At the centre of the record is a blunt question: do you want to die, or do you want to live? Across tracks including DEGRADATION, SWALLOW, KIDS THESE DAYS and DEAD GIRL WALKING, RØRY confronts mortality, people-pleasing and the anger that can remain after healing.

“I realised I was sick from being nice,” she says. “I’d spent so much of my life being the bigger person, forgiving people, understanding people, making excuses for people. I’d become disconnected from huge parts of myself. BLOODLETTING was about reclaiming them.”

The album also marks a new vocal step for RØRY, who began taking lessons and learned to scream during its creation, bringing a harsher new register to songs dealing with resentment, loss and release. Stream or purchase the album here.
