Uma vez mais ao lado de Daniel Lopatin (Oneohtrix Point Never) e Hudson Mohawke, Anohni anunciou a edição de um novo EP de material inédito que representa assim o passo discográfico que se segue ao aclamado álbum Hoplessness, editado em 2016.

O comunicado da editora, que anuncia a edição do EP Paradise a 17 de março, revela que se trata de um disco fortemente politizado. O texto de apresentação indica-o como sendo um disco-companheiro do álbum de 2016.

No alinhamento encontraremos os temas:

1. In My Dreams
2. Paradise
3. Jesus Will Kill You
4. Enemy
5. Ricochet
6. She Doesn’t Mourn Her Loss

Este mesmo comunicado junta ainda um texto no qual ficam claras as preocupações de Anohni perante o que poderá ser a nova política ambiental norte-americana.

Ali se lê:

“Our new leaders hope to crush our spirits and expedite ecocide in the name of virulent progress, consumerism and false security.
Like Jihadis, many capitalists and Christians compulsively seek to facilitate a righteous “holy war”, or apocalypse.

For millennia, Men have enslaved women and attempted to appropriate female creative power, re-casting themselves as gods and creators.
This assault continues today in the forms of ruthless wealth and mineral extraction, genetic engineering, mass surveillance and war mongering.

But as Donald Trump and his cabinet now demonstrate, the skills encouraged in men by their biologies and the tools that boys master in the playground have not equipped them to deal with the unprecedented global crisis we are now facing.

Mothers, your sons are trapped in a nightmare; they are not capable of responsibly negotiating the destructive agency that they now wield.

More profound even than a crime against humanity, fathers and sons now compulsively prepare to commit ecocide, in a final and irreversible assault upon creation itself.

Only an intervention by women around the world, with their innate knowledge of interdependency, deep listening, empathy and self-sacrifice, could possibly alter our species’ desperate course.” – ANOHNI, janeiro de 2017
