Having sat the past few years out, Swedish pop singer Lykke Li is returning with a brand new album this May.

According to NME, the new album covers the "intense period" of being a woman in her 20s.

"I always feel like I've been slightly misunderstood," she said. "As a woman you get judged for appearances or things like that I don't really care about. If anything I want to be seen as a singer-songwriter rather than a pop artist. I really feel like I've found my voice."
