The Weeknd announces new album 'Beauty Behind the Madness'

The Weeknd's new album, Beauty Behind the Madness, will hit stores on Friday, August 28.

The Canadian R&B singer announced the album title and revealed the cover on Twitter this afternoon. He said that the iTunes pre-order will be "available shortly."

Beauty Behind the Madness has 14 tracks, including singles "Often," "The Hills" and "Can't Feel My Face."

The album cover is visually similar to the single cover for "Can't Feel My Face," which is currently number six on the Billboard Hot 100. The cover is simple — no text, just a black-and-white image of the singer and a parental advisory warning label.

Beauty is The Weeknd's second studio album, following 2013's Kiss Land. He also released three critically-acclaimed mixtapes in 2011, which were later compiled together and labeled as Trilogy.

The Weeknd had two previous smash singles this year, "Earned It" from the Fifty Shades of Grey soundtrack and "Love Me Harder" with Ariana Grande.
