The album contains the hit singles 'Vampire' and 'Bad Idea Right?' as well as 10 brand new songs. Olivia has since revealed that there will also be a deluxe version of Guts with four additional tracks. As a result the album contains 16 songs in total.
Olivia co-wrote all 16 of the songs on Guts with her close friend and producer Dan Nigro.
Reviews for Guts are yet to come out but journalists have teased what the album sounds like in several Olivia profiles.
Vogue says that the album contains "wrenching, cinematic ballads" and songs that are "playful and insouciant". Meanwhile, The New York Times teased that the album leans heavily into rock. They also described 'Get Him Back' as a "hilarious rap-rock banger". The songs explore Olivia's relationship with fame and romance as a 19-year-old discovering herself.
Discussing how she came up with the title Guts in an Apple Music interview, Olivia explained: "I've had it for a long time. I had it actually when I was making Sour. I'm like, 'I want the next one to be Guts'. I like had it in my head, four letters, all caps, just like Sour, I love it."
She added: "I just think it's an interesting word. People use it in so many interesting contexts, like 'Spill your guts'. 'Hate your guts'. It means bravery, but it also means intuition, like listen to your gut."
Olivia ended the interview saying: "I just think it’s all of these things that coincidentally were things that I’ve really been thinking about in this chapter."
