Charli XCX is giving us the ultimate double-drop today: her brand-new soundtrack album for Emerald Fennell’s Wuthering Heights film lands alongside the movie itself, turning Emily Brontë’s stormy tragedy into a full-on sensory experience.
This isn’t just background score, it’s Charli reimagining the moors, the obsession, and the heartbreak through her lens, blending her signature pop edge with haunting, windswept drama. Fennell’s adaptation hits theaters today, and Charli’s album is the sonic companion that’ll have you replaying Heathcliff and Cathy’s chaos long after the credits roll.
The project kicked off last year with two stunners: the lead single “House,” featuring Welsh legend John Cale, dropped November 10th, all brooding electronics and whispered menace. Then “Chains of Love” followed just three days later on November 13th, locking in that push-pull dynamic of doomed romance with Charli’s signature bite.
Yesterday, Charli got real with fans on X, shouting out the collaborators who brought this vision to life: “I couldn’t have made this album without Finn Keane, Sky Ferreira, Joe Keery, Justin Raisen and of course John Cale. Thank you for your words, your writing, your playing, your collaborations. I love you all.”
It’s peak Charli; vulnerable, grateful, and unapologetically communal, turning a solo soundtrack into a family affair that elevates everyone involved. From Sky’s ethereal cool to Joe’s psych vibes and Cale’s avant-garde gravitas, this album feels like a fever dream of influences colliding on the Yorkshire winds.
Fans can stream Wuthering Heights right now, or grab it on vinyl and CD for that collector’s flex, because this is the kind of project you want physically spinning on your shelf while you obsess over the lyrics.
Paired with Fennell’s visual feast (Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi tearing into the leads), Charli’s score/soundtrack hybrid is the emotional amplifier we didn’t know we needed. Brat was chaos; this is catharsis. Go see the film, crank the album, and let the obsession consume you!
