Harry Styles: Harry’s House [Columbia]
Harry’s House is the third solo album from Harry Styles, who’s now immersed in an era of cushy ’80s pop synths and reflections on domestic pleasures. He released “As It Was” as the lone single ahead of the album’s arrival, with a video choreographed by Yoann Bourgeois. Though the album title seems to nod to Joni Mitchell’s “Harry’s House / Centerpiece,” in an interview with Today, Styles said that it was also partially inspired by Haruomi Hosono’s 1973 album Hosono House.
