A new snippet of an unleaked song! It's beautiful!

Lana is known for her honesty, yes. Personally, I feel like she only stressed that there will "probably always be more" music just to keep the door open and not be too dramatic. But we'll see

Isn't this the opposite of transparency I feel like she was improvising her speech and misused this word because I have no idea how this is helping her be more transparent.

Yeah I don't think she will be doing 'eras' anymore. At least, I believe Arcadia is the last we'll hear from her about Blue Banisters. She might drop a video for the cover album like she did for Summertime, but I don't see her doing any heavy promo. She wants out of the fame.

She thinks she's so badass, huh.

The piano when she sings 'My curves, San Gabriel all day'. BRILLIANT so many details that keep revealing itself the more I listen. Drew Erickson did an amazing job.

She's definitely not going

Kinda saw this coming. I do support her decision but I'm not sure how she plans to achieve more 'transparency' with this... She'll be back.

Honestly, after the 3 singles my expectations for the album were pretty low. But whew, she knocked it out of the park with Arcadia. One of her best releases in a hot minute. She still has that magic. There is hope after all

This is also how I feel about the Blue Banisters title track. Like the volume of her vocals are all over the place, it kinda sounds like she isn't controlling her breathing properly? And that leads to her 'overshooting' some of the lines and it ends up being painful to hear. Her vocals used to sound very effortless but now it sounds like she's struggling a bit to keep it under control

Unfortunately Tidal doesn't do pre-releases so we will only get those when the album is out

That somber Arcaaaadia at 3:21 followed by this defeated, resigned flourish of strings weeping in the background is one of the highlights of her discography. Wow, her mind! This song is so fucking depressing, I LOVE IT.

Full Arcadia credits from Tidal:

Yep these are songwriting credits

Yeah Rick is a composer on the song. Doesn't mean he necessarily produced it tho.

I'm looking at her store now (where the tracklist came from) and the release date which clearly said "8 October" was changed to 22 October. The Vinyls are now a week later at 29 October. Hopefully they didn't push it back a few weeks, and that we still get the digital on 8th of October.

Now we have two Thunders to listen to. If you want, just listen to the old version then. It's not that deep.

Apple Music usually has new releases 10 minutes early so just 1 HOUR LEFT!

User 1: I hope we don't get any bonus tracks User 2: Idk I kinda like bonus tracks User 3: OMG WE'RE GETTING BONUS TRACKS? A mess. Thank god we got it cleared up that there are no bonus tracks before some rando Twitter news account started circulating it as a rumor.

Y'all really spent a whole year manifesting this dookie. God bless.

Yeah okay Dealer is bad but I can see some of the girls here liking it Well, always nice to get the bad songs out of the way so the first impression of the full album will be better.
