Tension is the sixteenth studio album by Australian singer Kylie Minogue, Tension II, a sequel album, was released on 18 October 2024.
Tension was released on 22 September 2023, following her More Than Just a Residency concert residency in Las Vegas, Kylie is now bringing the Tension down under.
Tension was inspired by the 1980s music and culture, she abandoned the idea and decided to make a record that emphasised each song's individuality rather than a central theme. Tension features various electronic dance genres and sounds such as pop, dance-pop, disco, electronic, and synth-pop. The lyrics to the album address themes such as love, lust, fun, and empowerment, all of which have appeared in Minogue's previous works.
It's Mardi Gras week, our first Australian Friday Flash(back) for the 2025 first season. So why not go out in a glittery bang!
Tomorrow, get ready for her Sydney shows and stream both records. Today, the pop princess has done it all. So let's get ready for Tension live! Where she takes on tour from feature album star, Mallrat! What a combo! Kylie x Mallrat! Love it!
Quickly back to Tension. The record received critical acclaim from most music critics, many of whom praised its production quality, fun nature, Minogue’s input, and overall sound. Many critics regarded it as one of Minogue's best releases, with publications naming it one of their top picks of 2023.
Commercially, it reached number one in Australia, Belgium, Scotland, and the United Kingdom, as well as on component charts in Ireland and the United States. It was certified gold by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) in the United Kingdom and has sold over half a million units worldwide, generating half a billion streams.
Padam Padam was a viral smash hit. Maybe Kylie's first Tik Tok moment! Tension & Hold on to Now were released as singles, while 10 Out of 10 served as a promotional recording.
So get ready for the Tension!
