Swedish siren Lykke Li will returns with new album, I Never Learn, on May 5.

Following on from 2011′s Wounded Rhymes, the singer initially confirmed rough details in an interview with NME last month.

“I see my albums as a trilogy, with Youth Novels as the first one and hopefully this one as the last in this chapter,” she told the magazine, continuing: “It’s always about me and the guilt and the shame and the hurt and the pride and the confusion of being a woman … I always feel like I’ve been slightly misunderstood. As a woman you get judged for appearances or things like that I don’t really care about. If anything I want to be seen as a singer-songwriter rather than a pop artist. I really feel like I’ve found my voice.”

Earlier this evening a teaser trailer was released direct to YouTube. Visually grandiose and orchestral in execution, the clip sees Lykke in typical lovelorn mode – leaving the listener on absolute tenterhooks as to what’s to follow. Watch the trailer for I Never Learn below. Further details on the album are yet to be revealed.
