Background
Following Avicii's death in April 2018, a representative said the following month that there were "no plans" to release any new material in the immediate future. In April 2019, it was announced that Avicii had been working on the album before his death, with collaborators enlisted to help finish the work. A team of writers and producers made an album described as containing elements of "psychedelia, Arabian music, sounds of the Caribbean and more". The album's track listing was chosen from 16 possible songs. It will also feature a collaboration with Chris Martin titled "Heaven". On June 1 and 2, 2019, fans were given a chance to listen to the album 4-5 days early by going to music cubes in various locations around the world.
Singles
The first single to promote the album, "SOS", was released on 10 April 2019. A "Fan Memories" video for SOS, showing quotes from fans, about the impact Avicii had on them, was released the same day. "SOS" debuted at number one on the singles chart in Sweden on two days of sales.
"Tough Love" was released as the second single for the album on 9 May 2019. The music video for the latter came out 14 May 2019.
