Halsey's 2015 debut studio album, BADLANDS, is an electropop, dark pop, and synth-pop record with a dystopian concept.

The album's fictional world was inspired by post-apocalyptic films like The Fifth Element and metaphorically represents the singer's state of mind at the time.

Album background and themes

Halsey wrote the entire album when she was 19 years old, detailing her experiences entering the music industry and navigating independence.

The title "Badlands" represents a "desolate and lonely mind" that she gave a physical, metaphorical place.

Halsey has described it as an escape from her real-life struggles, creating a world where even without an exit, there is still hope.

“I can't believe it's been 10 years. So much has happened in the last decade, but BADLANDS remains the most exciting musical journey of my life. There are so many unbelievable things planned for this month to celebrate the album that changed her life and introduced her to the fans she'll love forever. This is just the beginning.”

The Back to Badlands tour was also announced with the caption: "One countdown has ended and a new one begins. Visit Badlands before it visits you.
