This year, the acclaimed sophomore album Wounded Rhymes from Swedish indie pop star Lykke Li is turning 10 years old. In order to celebrate the album’s existence and influence, the LA-based musician is releasing a deluxe version that features unreleased demos of “Jerome,” “Youth Knows No Pain,” and “I Follow Rivers.” Another treat off this deluxe release is a remix of “I Follow Rivers” by Tyler, the Creator hitting DSPs for the first time.

On Instagram, Lykke Li wrote, “I put some lost sessions as well including this little baby, ‘I follow Rivers,’ acoustic on piano. I sang this version over 10 years ago so I want to say thank you so much for still listening to me. I suppose unrequited love will always be eternal. Thank you to the man who broke my heart and opened so many doors in return. Miss and love you all.”

The digital release for the the deluxe version is coming this Friday, July 16, and the vinyl pressing is coming October 15. Pre-order it here, and check out the vinyl packaging below.
