Something about The Grants... 
 
 

I hear someone on this forum is good at reworking Lana songs, but don’t know who it is 

The Chemtrails one was 100% the same vinyl as the other yellow indie ones. I got both and gave them a detailed check. Same vinyl, same sleeve, same Barcodes. You can't tell a difference except for that strip of paper. And because they remove the original foil to add the strip of paper, the risk for seam splits during transport is increased. Actually any record store (and private people) could make these kind of exclusives. Maybe I should buy 5 copies, create an own paper strip x/5 and see how much it brings, lol. (I won't, just kidding.)

i miss the times when we used to get official apple snippets before the release, i remember listening to NFR ones and being so hyped for each song

Wow at some users being 13 with NFR…I am a bit surprised at members’ ages here. But hopefully that registers with people around here to show more understanding and empathy in our interactions, given the differences in age 

Tbh I feel lucky that I was 12 for BTD, 14 for UV, 18 for NFR, and 22 now because I’m not sure I’d be able to appreciate what’s she’s doing now if I was much younger 

She can't tour *cough* she's sick *cough*
 
 

If she’s gonna tour she better announce it before April so I know whether or not to put myself through the stress of Glastonbury resale 

I think it’s a typo and she meant “tune in for”

She worded it so weirdly but I hope she means a full tour 

Or she's ready to cancel the other shows like the infamous NFR tour 

I genuinely don’t think anyone cares about QFTC. It’s simply that the music of the past 2 eras was less captivating to the GP. Dealer was a bit of a streaming/viral hit for her which makes sense considering it’s the most dynamic thing she put out during that era. 

none of the NFR singles were really that successful DURING the NFR era though, most of them have blown up due to tiktok in the last few years, after QFTC. 
 
a&w got over 1 million streams for over 2 weeks, and easily performed the best out of any single shes released in the last 4 years upon release.
 
saying this is pretty reactionary due to it having 2 bad streaming days 3 weeks after it was released when absolutely nothing has been done to sustain its popularity. 

I'm really hoping her UK stop this time isn't just this festival which is almost impossible to get tickets to/lineup is released WAY after sell out. SURELY we need a headline show after 2020s cancellation mess

i’m still trying to understand this:
5 judah smith interlude 
6 candy necklace
7 jon batiste interlude 

Track 4. A&W
Track 5. Judah Smith Interlude 

the fact that i was perfectly fine with waiting for the album until they leaked 3 songs 4 days ago and i was really convinced as we all were that whoever this was was about to leak the rest and ever since i have not been fine with waiting at all

The album when it finally leaves the leaker's hard drive:

I reckon they'll do anything to get the physicals out release week. I remember when the BB records were delayed, mine were dispatched separately and they both didn't even make release week.

This is what I mean - I can understand doing a festival that your fans could easily buy tickets to but I really hope her one appearance after cancelling 2020 isn’t a festival none of us can go to
 
Regardless of Lana Glastonbury is an amazing festival and definitely worth it, so your money would be well spent if you’re lucky in resale!!

In general the way Glastonbury format their lineups is a bit weird (alphabetical minus pyramid headliners). But yeah while disrespectful it’s nothing personal they just don’t announce stage splits until nearer the dates. I’m sure she’s half trolling 

I hopeI read that she's Saturday as well so that's the 24th... 3 full weeks after the last Brazil date

i haven't listened to the leaks but i wanted to bring up an interesting insight...
 
everyone knows the album cover is a reference to the "This Property is Condemned" soundtrack, but could it be that the album is meant to evoke a film score?
 
BOZ has said that the whole album is narratively driven - like films - and if this is what's trying to be achieved with this album that makes me even more stoked 
 
to those who listened to the leaks - any thoughts regarding this?
