Description:

Ed Sheeran releases "- (Subtract)", the final and latest work of the "Massmatics Project" following "+", "x", "÷" and "="! Yellow-colored analog LP is also released at the same time! Ed Sheeran has announced the release of his new album "- (Subtract)" on May 5, 2023, which will be the last in his 10-year series of mathematically titled albums, "The Mathmatics Project". Written against a backdrop of personal grief and hope, the album goes back to Ed's roots as a singer-songwriter and represents the most vulnerable and honest side of the world's biggest star. Ed's love affair with singer-songwriters began when he first learned Eric Clapton's "Layla" on guitar at age 12. Growing up with Damien Rice, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, and other artists introduced to him by his father John playing on repeat in the family home, this album was always at the forefront of Ed's vision. But after a series of shocking events in Ed's world in 2022, the songs and writing process took on a whole new meaning and direction, but one thing remained the same: his strong desire to make a record rooted in the singer-songwriter's love of songwriting. And now he is gearing up for his most soul-baring release to date. Sub-Tract is a reminder of why Ed remains one of the most talented songwriters of his generation, an artist who opens up about his experiences for his fans to find comfort and belonging. The result of Ed's pushing the limits of his songwriting, "- (Subtract)" is the deepest songwriting of his career. He teamed up with Aaron Dessner (The National), who he hit it off with through mutual friend Taylor Swift, for writing and production, and began working on the album last February.Selected from more than 30 songs written during a month-long studio residency, the 14 songs are seamlessly tied together by exquisite production, ranging from folk-tinged textures to bold full band and orchestral arrangements.
