Thunder Revenant

If THIS song is not saving the hype for the era, then nothing will ...

Let me put it like that ... If Chemtrails tracklist would have been 01. White Dress [...] 08. Yosemite 09. You Can Be The Boss 10. Serial Killer 11. Us Against The World I would have enjoyed that MUCH more than what we actually got

WITH YOU!

With Thunder and Cherr Blossom we already have 2 tracks that will be great and definitly do not feature Nikki Lame. If it wasn't for Yosemite, CoCC would have 0 good songs after DBJAG ends. And let me mention this one again: It's not unusual that artists keep songs around for a while/ come back for them. Ususally, we just don't know it. Roisin Murphy recently talked about how "Murphy's Law" was initially planned for "Overpowered" and I saw noone crying about her putting it on RM. It's totally normal.

The trailer look GREAT (although I can already smell the cringy "I'm such a messy, close-to-the-simple-people queen"-plot) but ... the music sonds so basic in comparance. I expected tunes like Castle for this. I hope this concept album actually offers some smart an great tunes to go with the visuals ...

You guys remember when she posted those flawless boobie-pics pre-chemtrails and we all thought it would be for a shoot? Yeah, look how that worked out ...

3. There is no video for BB and she used scenes from a scrapped CoCC visual 4. She scrapped the video because it features her exboyfriend

I feel like this is not a single-album and more like something that has to be listened to as a whole piece of music to work

Ugh everything about this rollout is so unerwhelming. Both the title track/lead single and that leaked California song have weak songwriting and a lazy production (Jack really can't come anything new since 2018). Then there is this tryhard-provocative album cover ... nah. I love Lorde as a vocalist but this is NOT it.

I'm all here for an official release for Thunder and Cherry Blossom.

"soon-ish" and "later" ... gawd why can seh NEVER do a normal announement? It's really annoying However, I'm really positive about that album so far. We saw a teaser for a proper music video, have one of her most beautiful album covers ever and all of the songs we heard so far are EXTREMELY well-crafted. I think that this album could be the logical continuation to NFR, the songs resonate very well with the style she used on HIADTFAWLMTH-BIHI. I feel like CoCC was very similar to LFL in a lot of ways - overthought, too many last minute changes based on second thoughts, no solid concept and both kind of interfer with the cohesiveness of her discography. NFR feltlike a logical sequel to UV and HM, while Blue Banisters seems to follow NFR. LFL and CoCC kind of disturb that flow.

God I though that that post was so offensive. Instead of saying "hey guys, the date I announced is not happening" she was just being super vague, implying nothing would come but not having the balls to clear things up. Yeah, it's cool that ~something's coming, specially when you announced a f*ckin date which has already passed but nice of you to give us this cUtE little video ... I still get worked up thinking about it lol

She probably postponed the project to include tracks she will eventually scrap anyway

I mean - are you guys suprised? It's LITERALLY CoCC 2.0, with the only exception that we already have 3 singles. Her impulsively announcing random release-dates and album titles and then turning to radio silence ✓ Insiders talking about how she's still changing stuff about the album, scrapping songs, recording new ones, messing with the tracklist, changing the album's name etc ✓ First single(s) being dropped without any promotion and with an ugly ass selfie-cover ✓ Ben brabbling on about she will release nEw mUsiC sOoN ✓ Nothing happening on either of the dates she teased ✓

I bet that the second one is "blue"

So the digital version of the album only exists as a ohysical version?

The album is nice but I feel like they played it WAY too safe. Both of the Superclean EPs and the standalone singles lived from this atmospheric blend between dreamy bedroom pop, summery vibes, jazzy instrumentation and classic dance rhythms. All of the tunes on CINEMA are pretty solid altpop but there is nothing innovative, nothing you hadn't heard before. The first half of the record is extremely same-ish aswell. The most intriguing parts are the instrumental interludes and I'm really sad they did not carry that energy into the "main" songs. It's a nice album to listen to in the background but not as interesting as any of their former work.

September 5th

I'd LOVE Thunder to see an official release unless it's another BAR situation

I adore her art but following her on social media is extremely annoying nowadays. She comes off extremely narcissistic and makes a big fuss about every little thing she does. When she's contradicting herself (bragging after preaching humility, selling NFTs after advocating for the environment, posing with luxury brand-items after criticising huge concerns) she makes up some melodramatic justification and demonizes the people not agreeing with her in a pretty immature way.

Cool but some people like albums and care about the flow of the tracklist so what's the problem with talking about it? Not everyone is a Spotify-shuffle-person

I hope the new song has a bit more gravity ... The lyrics of SP are so cringy. "Here is my comeback, it's a boring tune about how I love the sUmMeR sOoOo MuCh. yEaH aLl ThE bOiS aNd GuRlS aRE HeRe-AsWeLl wohooooahahahah "

I could see Blue Banisters as the last track on the album or at least as one of the last 3 tracks on the record. I picture Wildflower Wildfire within the second half aswell, Textbook on the other hand feels like something that could happen within the first half maybe track 3.

Lies is great although the chorus is a bit noisy. I prefer the version she performed on Conan. Living Dead on the other hand is a flawless masterpiece.

Yup I could see that happen and it would make me very sad since i always wanted a textless cover - but in an artistic way
