Charli XCX — Wuthering Heights (CS)

Cream Colored Cassette Tape The Wuthering Heights soundtrack is the second soundtrack album by Charli XCX. It was written for Emerald Fennell’s film, starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi, released for Valentine’s Day 2026. “Not so much a song but an exorcism, ‘House,’ Charli xcx’s first new release since brat is a sharp left into brutally beautiful, gothic terror. Over weeping orchestral strings, The Velvet Underground’s John Cale recites a poem like a scryer while Charli xcx screeches the song’s sole lyric, ‘I think I’m going to die in this house.’” (– The FADER) “‘Chains Of Love’ is haunting … it sounds like a True Romance session that she’s swept the cobwebs off of — impassioned, industrial pop with a hint of new wave and lots of drama. With aching orchestral strings and spectral backing vocals, ‘Chains Of Love’ is equally magnetic as it is unnerving, capturing how an intangible thing like love can feel more like prison than our own corporeal cages.” (– Stereogum) Released: 2/13/26
