Heaven & Hell is the debut studio album by American singer Ava Max. It was released by Atlantic Records on September 18, 2020. Max recorded the album from December 2018 to March 2020, where she collaborated with composers including Cirkut, RedOne, Charlie Puth, and Bonnie McKee. Musically, Heaven & Hell is a pop, dance-pop, and electropop record split into two sides; the former contains anthemic sounds, while the latter incorporates darker melodies. The studio album was released to generally favorable reviews from music critics, many of whom praised the production and Max's vocal abilities but criticized the lyrics and lack of originality. Heaven & Hell peaked at number two on the UK Albums Chart and at number 27 on the US Billboard 200. It has since been certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in the United States and gold by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) in the United Kingdom.

Background and development


Following the release of "Sweet but Psycho" in August 2018, Max toured overseas for 30 to 40 days before returning to the United States around Christmas that same year, where she began writing for her then-untitled debut studio album.[1] In April 2019, Max first announced that she would release the album sometime during the year, discussing in an interview with Billboard that "there are some other tracks on there that are like wild cards, and there are a few that I'm being vulnerable in".[2] She recorded over a hundred songs for Heaven & Hell, which she spent several months on deciding what to include. The album was initially completed in early 2019, but was delayed in order to improve the tracklist by adding more songs and removing one.[3]

In December 2019, Max hinted that Heaven & Hell would be released in the upcoming months. She confirmed that it was in the process of being finalized,[4] but was subsequently delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] When asked about the album by MTV News shortly after the release of "Kings & Queens", she stated that the previously released singles with the exception of "Sweet but Psycho" were not included on the tracklist.[5] "So Am I", "Salt" and "Torn" eventually made the final tracklist, which Max added due to fan demand.[3][6] She also decided to include the album's introductory song "Heaven" in March 2020, while re-arranging each track on Heaven & Hell based on her instincts.[7][8]


Production and artwork


Musically, Heaven & Hell contains genres of pop,[9][10] dance-pop,[11] and electropop,[12] with lyrical themes of love, feminism, and resilience.[13] Max insisted on wanting an upbeat energy to the album so that it would be cohesive, reasoning that she did not want every song to sound the same. She described some songs as "very strong and empowering", while others "are a little bit more emotional".[3][4] Max refused to include a ballad on the album, as she believed that she would need to include at least four ballads without removing any dance tracks.[6][14] She additionally stated that Heaven & Hell is a collection of music inspired by artists from her childhood such as Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, and Mariah Carey.[15] Cirkut, RedOne, Charlie Puth and Bonnie McKee were involved in the album's production.[16] It is split into two sides; Side A: Heaven, and Side B: Hell. The former consists of light energetic songs which serve as anthems, while the latter consists of darker and moodier melodies.[14] Max first envisioned the concept before performing at the 2019 MTV Video Music Awards, after including the album title as a lyric in the bridge of "Torn", eventually placing the song as the "purgatory" track of Heaven & Hell.[1][17]

Max enlisted creative director Charlotte Rutherford to create visuals for Heaven & Hell through direct messages, where she created the album's cover art, which contains a mirror image of Max's asymmetric blonde and orange hair in two different colors.[18][19] Max explained that she wanted it to be "pretty simple" as she used several crazy ideas in previous covers. The back cover and 12-page booklet contains photos which depict heaven being in space and hell being on earth, which she described as an "entire world that I created".[1][18] A thematic palette of orange and blue was incorporated into the album's visuals, with the colors specifically chosen by Max.[20] She stated that the color blue symbolized "sky and light", while orange was "more fiery but also vibrant".[8]


Promotion


Max announced the release date and title of Heaven & Hell on July 29, 2020, which was accompanied by the release of "Who's Laughing Now" the next day.[21] A tour supporting the album was originally planned for September to October 2020 in the United States, but was cancelled due to the pandemic.[6] A launch party was virtually held on the game platform Roblox on September 25, 2020, which included a "question and answer" forum with Max, an interactive concert, and a merchandise store.[22][23] During the party, Max appeared on a large floating screen to discuss the album, before performing on a background surrounded by flashing lights and fireworks, which transformed into an animated version of hell. Over 1,156,000 players appeared at the event, which caused Roblox to consider integrating more virtual concerts on the platform.[24] Max stated in October 2020 that a deluxe edition of the album was planned to be released at the end of the year and acknowledged that it was in the process of being completed,[12] but indicated in September 2021 that she had moved on from Heaven & Hell in favor of developing her second album.[15]


Singles


"Sweet but Psycho" was released as the first single on August 17, 2018.[2] It became a breakthrough song for Max, ultimately reaching number one in 22 countries and charting at number 10 on the US Billboard Hot 100.[25][26] "So Am I" was released on March 7, 2019,[27] which peaked at number one on the Polish Airplay Top 100 and charted in the top 10 in 14 countries.[28][29] "Torn" was released on August 19, 2019,[30] where it reached the top 10 in Latvia, Poland, Slovakia, and Slovenia.[31] "Salt" was released as the fourth single on December 12, 2019. The song was officially released after receiving high streaming numbers on SoundCloud, despite containing no prior marketing or promotion.[3] It topped the Polish Airplay Top 100 and charted within the top 10 in Austria, Finland, Germany, Norway, Russia, Ukraine, and Switzerland.[32][33]

"Kings & Queens" was released on March 12, 2020, which served as the fifth single for Heaven & Hell.[5] It reached the summit of the Polish Airplay Top 100 and charted in the top 20 in Austria, Finland, Germany, Norway, Switzerland, the US, and the UK.[34][35][36] "Who's Laughing Now" was released on July 30, 2020,[37] where it topped the Polish Airplay Top 100 and charted in the top 10 in Finland and Norway.[38][39] The seventh single "OMG What's Happening" was released on September 3, 2020.[40] "My Head & My Heart" was released on November 19, 2020, and was included on the digital reissue of Heaven & Hell.[41]

Writing for AllMusic, Neil Z. Yeung stated that Heaven & Hell is "an expertly crafted gem", praising the album for showcasing Max's sonic range and personality.[9] Jason Lipshutz of Billboard noted that it was an "unrelentingly uptempo body of work", with several tracks containing electropop genres. He highlighted Max's vocal theatrics on "OMG What's Happening" and concluded that "Naked" had one of the best chorus introductions in 2020.[49] Lipshutz placed Heaven & Hell on his unranked listicle of The 25 Best Pop Albums of 2020, stating that Max "sounds like she's having a blast" and praised her decision to not incorporate ballads on the album.[50] Writing for The Guardian, Michael Cragg praised Heaven & Hell for having an impeccable melodic infrastructure. Although he contrasted it to Katy Perry's 2020 studio album Smile, which The Atlantic labeled as "too complex for 2D", Cragg acknowledged that originality was not a priority for Max and stated that there was "something glorious about its dogged aversion to anything other than 2D escapism".[46] Michael Chaiken of Republican-American wrote that the medium tempo album was "very good pop music" with great hooks, comparing it to songs released early in Lady Gaga's career.[51] Writing for The National, Saeed Saeed noted that every track in Heaven & Hell contained "colossal hooks carried by oceans of synth lines and club-stomping beats", which were accompanied by Max's maximal vocals. He described Max as an "intriguing prospect" before concluding that the album was "anything but subtle".[52]

Nicholas Hautman of Us Weekly noted that the album's upbeat tracklist was presented similar to a phonograph record, where the first side was "more pop-driven and carefree", while the latter half took "a darker, moodier approach". However, he disliked the cliché lyrics in songs such as "Naked" and "Salt", insisting that the former was about "stripping away clothes", while the latter was about "crying so much that you literally run out of the electrolytes needed to form tears".[48] Writing for Spectrum Culture, Jeffrey Davies noted the lack of innovation and individuality on Heaven & Hell, in addition to the staggered single releases from over a year ago, stating that "Who's Laughing Now" and "OMG What's Happening" were "out of place". However, he commended Max's strong vocals and artistic talent for creating a nostalgic feeling on the dance floor, noting that she was reminiscent of artists such as Paula Abdul and Taylor Dayne.[47] Helena Wadia of Evening Standard wrote that while Max was skilled at "writing catchy tunes", she criticized the album for its use of "manufactured pop" and "lyrical tropes", concluding that it "ultimately lacks personality".[45]

[es] Heaven & Hell

Heaven & Hell (en español: Cielo e infierno) es el primer álbum de estudio de la cantante estadounidense Ava Max. Fue lanzado el 18 de septiembre de 2020 a través de Atlantic Records. Max grabó el álbum de diciembre de 2018 a marzo de 2020, donde colaboró con compositores como Cirkut, RedOne, Charlie Puth y Bonnie McKee. Musicalmente, Heaven & Hell es un disco pop, de dance pop y de electropop, que se divide en dos lados; el primero contiene sonidos hímnicos, mientras que el segundo incorpora melodías más oscuras. Heaven & Hell recibió críticas generalmente favorables de los críticos musicales, muchos de los cuales elogiaron la producción animada y las habilidades vocales de Max, pero criticaron las letras y la falta de originalidad. El álbum alcanzó el puesto número dos en la lista musical británica UK Albums Chart y el número 27 en la lista estadounidense Billboard 200. Desde entonces ha sido certificado platino por la Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) en los Estados Unidos y oro por la British Phonographic Industry (BPI) en el Reino Unido.
