An interview with Complex magazine, that was released 2/6/2015 (3 days ago) states EP3 will be released "within two months" and will include the songs "Glass & Patron", "Mothercreep", "I'm Your Doll / Dress Me Up", "Figure 8", and "In Time".
"After debuting the new performances, FKA Twigs has formally introduced the first segment of her new material which comes from her forthcoming EP Melissa."
"Melissa" is the name of twigs's personal female energy. She explains that Melissa is not an alter-ego, and clarifies that her female energy never had a name until the EP was being finalised. She named the extended play "Melissa" as a way of separating it from herself. It was this energy that made her want to appear pregnant in the 'Glass & Patron' music video and the videos that follow."
 
@mojib, can you update the name of this ep to the now-official one?
Done!
A Resident Advisor article just surfaced the net telling that an EP called M3LL155X from FKA twigs was going to be available for streaming and download today. Now they deleted it. I think something is moving! :)
Wow, you spotted that early, @youngturk – It’s out!
And it’s badass.
yeah! :D they removed it so quickly this afternoon, there was almost no trace of its existence!
it’s so rad, love it!
woohoo!

amazing, it was so suddenly and by now it’s slaying me really hard
Nice!
I don’t get it, this worship of FKA twigs – she has 1 good song (maybe). This EP is disappointing and dreadful – simply awful. Perhaps Nicki Minaj was correct, that the music industry simply “celebrates women with very slim bodies.” Because that’s all she has going for her IMO…
Really? I thought it was really good. She really tries to distance herself from the typical regressive, misogynistic female identity; showing dismay with such a female pop figure with songs like “I’m your doll” and “glass & patron” which exemplify unjust objectification of women as merely sexual objects, it’s particularly effective in “i’m you’re doll” where she literally becomes a sex doll, completely controlled by the forceful male. Although it may be a little extreme she gets her point across pretty clearly, women are taken advantage of far too often in the entertainment industry and often only recognized for their physical features, not their talent. She further strengthens this ideal by showing herself as a late-term pregnant soon-to-be mother, she embraces her natural yet un-alluring figure to the disapproval of a male figure who finally shows utter disgust as she converts herself into various conventionally unattractive forms. Will you love me when I’m ugly is the question FKA Twigs is asking and the average male is responding with no. So I think there may be a lot more to FKA Twigs than a “very slim body”, she’s got a lot of creativity and profoundness going for her.
Very well put @atmosphericrex
Thank you very much @mojib
so in love
