According to the press release, Peaches is currently working on a new album which will be a follow-up to 2015’s ‘Rub’.

Last year, she released new single ‘Pussy Mask’. Speaking to NME about the track, Peaches said: “I was working on the new album when I came up with a line like ‘My pussy squirts so hard, I have to wear two masks’ or something and I thought: that needs to be a song right now, because I’m going to shine a light on a lot of concerns but also have a good laugh. I wanted to enjoy myself, make people happy and offer a snapshot of what’s happening now.”
