Melanie Martinez is celebrating the two-year anniversary of her third studio album, PORTALS, with an exclusive limited edition deluxe vinyl box set and an all-new board game. This marks the first time the PORTALS deluxe album is available on vinyl, featuring a stunning milky-clear double LP, alternate album artwork, and a beautifully designed 20-page lyric booklet with brand-new illustrations.
What makes this release truly unique is the inclusion of Portals the Game, a board game personally created by Martinez. Designed as an immersive journey through the afterlife, players navigate different realms, collecting soul points to achieve enlightenment. The game board is cleverly integrated into the album’s gatefold, making it a seamless fusion of music and interactive storytelling.
PORTALS features the hit singles “VOID” and “DEATH,” both of which made history as Martinez’s first original songs to debut on the Billboard Hot 100. “DEATH” was accompanied by a visually stunning music video, conceptualized and directed by Martinez herself, which trended at #1 on YouTube’s “Top Music Videos” chart and has amassed over 45 million views. The video and song were widely praised, with Billboard describing Martinez as an “avant-garde pop auteur” who creates “bold, expansive worlds” that leave listeners feeling reborn.
The success of PORTALS extended beyond streaming and sales, leading Martinez to embark on her sold-out PORTALS Tour, followed by her first-ever global arena tour, The Trilogy Tour. The latter featured sold-out performances at New York’s Madison Square Garden and showcased the evolution of her iconic alter ego, “Cry Baby.” This tour brought together songs from her three groundbreaking Top 10 albums—”Cry Baby”, “K-12”, and “PORTALS” which collectively have garnered over 17 billion streams worldwide.
Fans can purchase the deluxe box set now through Martinez’s official website, with a limited release hitting Walmart.com next week. This special edition not only celebrates PORTALS but also highlights Martinez’s signature creativity, offering an entirely new way to experience her music and artistic universe.
