Froot

Froot is the third studio album by the Welsh singer and songwriter Marina Diamandis, and her last under the stage name Marina and the Diamonds. It was originally scheduled to be released on 3 April 2015, through Atlantic and Neon Gold Records, although it was ultimately released on 13 March 2015, due to unauthorised Internet leaks. With the record being written entirely by Diamandis, she collaborated with David Kosten for production. After drafting new material for the album while spending a month in the United States, Diamandis felt an improvement as a songwriter and believing in her own abilities. Musically, she conceived Froot as a pop record, influenced by Europop and synth-pop, with elements of electronic music, indie pop, new wave, and rock. Upon its release, music critics commended its cohesive production and further applauded Diamandis for her vocal delivery. A critical success, it appeared on several critics' year-end lists in 2015. The record debuted at number 10 in the United Kingdom with first-week sales of 10,411 copies. It also became her first top 10 album in the United States, debuting at number eight on the Billboard 200 chart after selling 46,000 units.
