Ugh these reviews suck. Like all great art, the magic will be lost on a lot of people who don't give it proper focus, or people who already have dismissed Lana before they listen.

Yes exactly! The combo of the final two tracks is really stunning and thrilling, and I really think that she's deliberately placed things that way to lead into Chemtrails, especially given how mysterious she is keeping the album.

Can you sign up for the Audible free trial and get it that way?

I wonder how much the project has changed and evolved since she originally had it planned for release before NFR. After listening so many times, it really does feel like it was meant to come after NFR. Moments like "stupid apartment complex" wouldn't be as special without Mariner's, and the return to Sylvia Plath in Bare Feet on Linoleum is even more powerful after Hope. What she says about people who feed off of paradise seems like an introduction to themes she will explore in Chemtrails over the Country Club. Also, the super stressful ending doesn't sound like it would be leading into something like NFR. Now I expect the new album to be a lot darker than I was originally thinking. As she says, she's gone scorched earth and choosing to end on a note this dark makes me think the project is going to be a little more unhinged.

In one poem she mentions watercolours of orange trees with snakes running through them, so I think the cover is a metaphor for simple things that look peaceful and beautiful but when you look closely there is darkness hiding.

Right!! That line in the context of that whole track gives me chillllllls. Truly an unexpected and thrilling ending, and it makes me SO excited for Chemtrails.

Wow this track is completely stunning it made me cry.

OMG this was terrifying. What a brilliant ending.

OMG I am truly floored. Just listened twice. Absolute masterpiece of atmosphere and storytelling. I'm pretty much speechless tbh what a compelling and unique journey she's put together, I'm so proud of her. The payoff of the last two tracks is so amazing and I am left completely unnerved by the ending. I think this definitely gives us an idea of the direction she's going with Chemtrails and also Behind the Iron Gates.

Uh oh lol

im so nervous that nothing is gonna happen in five minutes LOL

It's on Audible if you click Order Details

Now my hopes are up and I'm gonna sit here for 3 hours waiting patiently, and then it's not gonna come

You too! Fingers crossed

I'm in Canada EST and mine also says coming in 3 hours.

WOW it's so beautiful. Her words and delivery are amazing and the music is truly spectacular. Very gentle yet mysterious and almost sinister in a way. Can't wait to hear the rest!

Sleepaway Camp

I'm not a big Taylor Swift fan usually. I did really like 1989 but I find most of her music pretty obnoxious. This album however is amazing, can't stop listening. Her best work by far in my opinion, she did a great job here.

I kinda feel like we might be overthinking 'Tulsa Jesus Freak: White Hot Forever." She may have just been in Tulsa and that weird caption came to her, and it's nothing more than a caption. We shall see though!

I heard the title track in my dream last night. It had a really long heavy-drums intro, and the opening line was "Mary had a little lamb." It was about a little girl named Mary who kept herself isolated at the country club, and was very strict about who she would let in or not. The song got sassier and more aggressive as it went on and Mary grew up, and at the end of the song Mary looked up at the sky and saw the chemtrails above her and realized the error of her ways. LOL

Does anyone know if audio books are released at midnight the same way albums are? Should I be staying up on Monday until twelve so I can listen?

Maybe she's a performance artist leaning into certain stereotypes and assumptions about her before she eviscerates us all with her brutal take down of rich white hypocritical Jesus freaks in the new album.

I'm nervous. lol Things started so wholesome with Joan's paintings, and then we spiralled real quickly.
