Released right as summer died, ‘Gothic Summer’ is the sixth studio album from Australian pop duo The Veronicas. 

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Jess Origliasso said the album was very metaphorical. 

“The whole theme of Gothic Summer is that it’s basically exploring social commentary on what we think is reality versus how we create our reality.” 

The duo’s other half, Lisa Origliasso, told Apple Music the album is about the highs and lows of life, “Finding beauty, empowerment and self-love in the shadows and darker parts of life’s experiences.”
