Avril Lavigne is preparing for a massive comeback in 2018. It has been more than four years since the pop/rock princess unleashed her self-titled fifth studio album. But this weekend she hopped on social media to assure fans new music is on the way. In the process, the 33-year-old offered a bit of a behind the scenes glimpse at her creative process this time around.

One fan shared a screen-grab of interactions with the Canadian siren on Twitter. In a conversation they had via direct message, Avril promised the album was nearing the final stages. “I started mixing my record and we are wrapping it up. I am so relieved,” she wrote. She explained it has been a process to find the “right producers for the project,” but she hoped to be done with everything by February.

“I’ve never worked sooo hard on an album. It’s next level. Will be worth it. It’s about as real as it gets,” she added. The hitmaker also offered a hint of what to expect when the LP finally drops. After another fan asked her to describe the album she chimed in with a handful of adjectives. “Personal, dear, intimate, dramatic, raw, powerful, strong and unexpected,” she wrote. “This record is a true emotional journey.”

Although it has been years since the “Complicated” singer released an album, she has appeared on a series of buzz tracks over the years. In 2017 she collaborated with the production duo Grey on a robust track on their album titled “Wings Clipped.” Before that she teamed up with the Special Olympics to record an inspirational ode called “Fly.” Hopefully she is able to put the finishing touches on her long-anticipated LP, because we are ready for more new music from her.
