It was released on 4 July 2014 by Monkey Puzzle and RCA Records worldwide, and Inertia Records in Australia. Primarily an electropop album, the record also incorporates influences from reggae and hip hop.

She wrote the song "Titanium" for American singer Alicia Keys, but it was later sent to David Guetta, who included Sia's original demo vocals on the song and released it as a single in 2011.

The singer agreed to a contract for a new album in which she was not obliged to tour or do press appearances to promote the album. In an interview published by NME in February 2015, Sia revealed that 1000 Forms of Fear was released as a contractual obligation: "Basically, I put this out to get out of my publishing deal. I was planning to be a pop song writer for other artists. But my publishing deal was as an artist so I had to put one more album out. I didn't want to get famous so I kept all the songs I wanted and had a lot of fun making it."http://www.nme.com/news/various-artists/82961 Sia reveals early details of brand new album 'This Is Acting' David Renshaw NME 17 February 2015 18 February 2015 1 October 2015 https://web.archive.org/web/20151001004329/http://www.nme.com/news/various-artists/82961 live Composition 1000 Forms of Fear is primarily an electropop album, with influences of hip hop and reggae.

"Eye of the Needle" is a "military-march" piano ballad, while "Hostage" is a new wave pop and ska track that features Sia's voice "cracking like a punk singer." The sixth song, "Straight for the Knife", is instrumented by strings and lyrically details a tempestuous relationship: "But will someone find me swinging from the rafters / From hanging on your every word." "Fair Game", where Sia sings "Watch me squirm baby, but you're just what I need," is a minimalist and string-laden song about the desire to find an equal partner. The solo version of "Elastic Heart", which originally featured The Weeknd and Diplo, is a trap song. The song addresses "the overwhelming strength [Sia] needed to convince herself that life was worth living after coming out of a crushing relationship."http://www.factmag.com/2014/07/16/1000-forms-of-fear/ 1000 Forms of Fear – FACT magazine Fact 16 July 2014 Aimee Cliff 9 January 2015 https://web.archive.org/web/20150226084752/http://www.factmag.com/2014/07/16/1000-forms-of-fear/ 26 February 2015 live "Free the Animal" lyrically "imagines being killed in lurid, masochistic detail" with the lyrics "Detonate me / Shoot me like a cannon ball / Granulate me / Kill me like an animal."http://www.nme.com/blogs/nme-blogs/how-sias-personal-resurrection-became-her-greatest-work-yet How Sia's Personal Resurrection Became Her Greatest Work Yet Lucy Jones NME 17 July 2014 19 February 2015 28 September 2015 https://web.archive.org/web/20150928083337/http://www.nme.com/blogs/nme-blogs/how-sias-personal-resurrection-became-her-greatest-work-yet live The tenth song, "Fire Meet Gasoline", was compared to Beyoncé's "Halo" by Harriet Gibsone from The Guardian.

If Amy Winehouse was a beehive then I guess I'm a blonde bob. I thought 'well if that's my brand, how can I avoid having to use my face to sell something', so my intention was to create a blonde bob brand. Throughout this whole thing I'll put a different person in a blonde bob and either they lip-synch while I'm doing a live performance or they perform a dance or do some sort of performance while I have my back to the audience, as with Ellen. — Sia In an interview with Dazed & Confused, Sia explained that she had decided not to show her face in videos and press shots in the campaign for 1000 Forms of Fear; instead, she focused on creating visual art through her videos.http://www.dazeddigital.com/music/article/19982/1/sia-on-taking-performance-art-to-the-masses Sia on taking performance to the masses Michael Cragg Dazed May 2014 3 June 2014 29 September 2015 https://web.archive.org/web/20150929020616/http://www.dazeddigital.com/music/article/19982/1/sia-on-taking-performance-art-to-the-masses live During the promotion of the album, Sia recruited Ziegler to be her persona on stage and performed with her back facing to the camera.http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/entertainment/sydney-confidential/shame-sia-for-using-maddie-as-a-decoy/story-fni0cvc9-1227219209181 Shame Sia, for using Maddie Ziegler as a decoy The Daily Telegraph Australia Annette Sharp 13 February 2015 20 February 2015 11 June 2015 https://web.archive.org/web/20150611194544/http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/entertainment/sydney-confidential/shame-sia-for-using-maddie-as-a-decoy/story-fni0cvc9-1227219209181 live On 19 May 2014, Sia performed "Chandelier" on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, where Maddie Ziegler recreated the choreography in the music video.http://pitchfork.com/news/55254-sia-performs-chandelier-on-ellen/ Sia Performs 'Chandelier' on Ellen Pitchfork Media Jeremy Gordon 19 May 2014 7 June 2014 19 May 2015 https://web.archive.org/web/20150519165925/http://pitchfork.com/news/55254-sia-performs-chandelier-on-ellen/ live Sia also performed the song on Late Night with Seth Meyers on 9 June 2014, with Girls star Lena Dunham performing the choreography.https://time.com/2851658/lena-dunham-sia-chandelier-late-night-with-seth-meyers/ Watch Lena Dunham Dance To Sia's 'Chandelier' on Late Night with Seth Meyers Megan Gibson 10 June 2014 Time 20 February 2015 26 April 2015 https://web.archive.org/web/20150426101018/http://time.com/2851658/lena-dunham-sia-chandelier-late-night-with-seth-meyers/ live On 4 July 2014, Sia made an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, where she performed "Chandelier", "Big Girls Cry" and "Elastic Heart".http://www.mtv.com/news/1861328/sia-continues-to-hide-her-face-during-jimmy-kimmel-performance/ Sia Continues To Hide Her Face During 'Jimmy Kimmel' Performance Nadeska Alexis MTV News 4 July 2014 20 February 2015 https://web.archive.org/web/20150323044116/http://www.mtv.com/news/1861328/sia-continues-to-hide-her-face-during-jimmy-kimmel-performance/ 23 March 2015 dead On 30 July 2014, Sia performed "Chandelier", "Elastic Heart" and "Big Girls Cry" on the VH1's show "SoundClash".http://www.vh1.com/music/tuner/2014-07-29/soundclash-leaked-set-list-ep-2/ Ed Sheeran, Grouplove + Sia's Set List for Episode 2 Leaked!

Writing for The Daily Telegraph, Helen Brown praised the album's production and "inspirational" lyrics showcasing Sia struggling to deal with drug addiction and bipolar disorder. Rolling Stones Julianne Escobedo Shepherd simply wrote that "she sounds like a superstar;" while Maura Johnston of Spin characterised 1000 Forms of Fear as "a chunk of the human emotional spectrum committed to record." On behalf of The New York Times, Jon Pareles lauded the "loopy, unresolved passions" on the album in favour of "the triumphal, laminated, computer-perfected tone of Sia’s clients." Writing for Slant Magazine, Annie Galvin opined that 1000 Forms of Fear "should be the vessel that rockets the singer out of relative obscurity and into the stratosphere populated by those more recognizable stars who've come to dominate the pop-music universe thanks, in part, to her songwriting skills." Mikael Wood writing for the Los Angeles Times praised Sia's vocals and the production held by Greg Kurstin. Likewise, Entertainment Weeklys Adam Markovitz positively viewed Sia's voice as "astonishing," giving the album a B score.http://www.ew.com/article/2014/08/26/1000-forms-fear 1000 Forms of Fear Entertainment Weekly Adam Markovitz 26 August 2014 19 February 2015 21 November 2015 https://web.archive.org/web/20151121074429/http://www.ew.com/article/2014/08/26/1000-forms-fear live Robert Christgau gave the album a one-star honorable mention (hm1), citing "Chandelier" and "Elastic Heart" as highlights. On a less enthusiastic review, The Guardian's Harriet Gibsone shared that the album was so impeccable and "contemporary-sounding" that "its impact may fade with time." The A.V. Club writer Annie Zaleski wrote: "1000 Forms of Fear certainly has the songs and contemporary sheen to make Sia a star in her own right, but it's at the expense of both her emotional intimacy and her offbeat personality."
