Joji makes a powerful return with his upcoming album Piss In The Wind, set for release on February 6, 2026. The Japanese-Australian artist, known for blending melancholy and cinematic textures, dives once again into emotional chaos and introspection.
Together with the album announcement, Joji unveiled a haunting single titled If It Only Gets Better. The song blends soft acoustic sounds with an undercurrent of melancholy, portraying exhaustion and a sense of isolation that define much of his work.
“If It Only Gets Better” is written by Joji and John Durham and produced by Wonton.
The track begins with a gentle acoustic melody that grows into a rhythmic, slightly distorted arrangement. Lyrically, it explores the blurry line between heartbreak and numbness, questioning whether healing is genuine or simply another change in form.
The music video, directed by James Mao, immerses Joji in a neon-lit club saturated with smoke and movement. Within the visual chaos, he stands emotionally detached — a quiet observer at a celebration that feels distant and dissonant.
Fans sensed a major project was near after Joji’s spontaneous release of PIXELATED KISSES last month. The track entered the Billboard Hot 100 and quickly gained massive streaming numbers. Piss In The Wind now confirms that it was only the beginning of a new creative phase for the artist.
Joji’s upcoming fourth album Piss In The Wind captures his trademark intersection of heartbreak, surreal soundscapes, and introspective melancholy, promising an emotive return to form.
