Thunder Revenant

The way she drives ... the way she's STILL filming herself while doing it .... the way bootlickerstans try to defend it ... cringe-overkill I love how whenever she posts something really stupid, it's always a honeypot that tells you who on this forum still has the mindset of an edgy 15 year old.

It was an ok interview until she got a bit too self absorbed, focussing on how great she is and how she always knows everything (LOL). Jack encouraging her by being a brown-noser did not help. The pictures are great though amd it's nice to have some context on the album. I hope that it's ACTUALLY coming this month and that Dealer will only be added as a digital track. Not sure if I like that she memtions her cringy instagram-girlfriends in her music and that country seems to be a part of CoCCs soundscape.

While I like the album, I have to say that - for me - it does not live up to the expectations the singles raised. I feel like she was focussed a bit too much on being artistic, innovative and different and that made some songs become stale, even though the composition and production is beautiful. Habibi has this heartbreakingly beautiful vibe but the stiff vocals and the overuse of autotune does not really improve it. Wallflower has this extremely intriguing percussion, yet she insists on making the song a semi-spoken chant. Gole Bi Goldoon is nice, yet totally unspectacular. And Human Nature is still the most overrated and boring artsy-fartsy-autotune songs within her discography. None of these songs have anything on the immense power of Darkest Hour, Lamp Lady, Joanna or Oh My God. Makes me wonder even more why she decided to exclude Martyr, a vivid and passionate track that went along with the other singles so well. The only other songs on the album that really go with this energy are Shabrang, Eden and Rhode. All Rivers At Once was a very pleasant suprise, as it really is a very new sound for her. It reminds me a slightly bit of stuff Tori Amos could have done. Dormant goes into a similar direction, although it falls off a bit during it's second half. No Way succeeds in what Habibi and Gole Bi Goldoon try and Comet is extremely well produced, although it's obviously meant as an outro-track. So yeah, I enjoy Shabrang, but based on the singles I expected it to be much more powerful and passionate than it turned out to be.

Is it me or is Lamp Lady mastered slightly more quiet than the rest of the album?

I'm SOOOO excited for this. And I just phoned my mum and she casually dropped how she's looking forward to listen to the revord on her way to work tomorrow

All of this heresy and then you end it with the most cringy lyric from her most overrated track ? Better take it down hun ... Meanwhile I hope CoCC will be her Honeymoon 2.0

Habibi is beautifully produced and I'm extremely excited for the visuals. However, I feel like it's a stronger album-song than single.

I. Love. This. Post.

Sorry but this new system version is extremely ... bad. The status updates are a mess, the overall layout is less clear, the functionality feels more clunky... nah

Lol she can't be serious. There is no way she is not doing this on purpose

Ok but why would you expect an insightful posts with depth on this issue? It's not like she's a politicion or tends to be involved with israelian/ palestine culture a lot. Her post was tasteful and I don't think pop singers should be your go-to source for politic discussion

I really don't like the fact that she put HN on this instead of Martyr. I never really got HN's popularity. Yeah, it's artistic and everything but in the end it's 6mins of autotune brabbling. It fit in on The Calling but it feels off to have it on Shabrang now. Martyr is such a beautifully produced & sung track. It's the sister song to Darkest Hour and really has the same vibe as the other Shabrang tracks. Now it's a left out orphan-track. My only hope is that this is a similar situation to "Time", where she leaves the track off the album cause she wanted to add a very similar one or a rework like with Underneath/Shahmaran.

I really hope we will get ANYTHING album-related this weak although I know I'm probs setting myself up for disappointment

I hop that "everything I wanted" and "my future" end up on a new album. Really dig that sound.

Bartender and Religion both feel pretty connected to this album considering the overall vibe

i don't think the poems would impress me when reading them, but her reciting them over the instrumentals is really exciting. "Never To Heaven" and "Past The Bushes Cypress Thriving" are a bit lame but the rest is charming. "Sportcruiser" is a really nice story, "LA who am I to Love You" is EXTREMELY powerful and I hope we will get a song with a production like "My Bedroom Is A Sacred Place Now". "The Land of 1,000 Fires", "Quiet Waiter - Blue Forever", "What Happened Whrn I Left You" and "Violet Bent Backwards Over The Grass" are extremely on point - mainly sonically. "Salamander", "Happy" and "Tessa DiPietro" appear bland at first but then turn out pretty meaningful and smart. "Bare Feet On Linolium" is really leaving you devastated. The production, the way she reads it ... It's super expressive. I hope COCC will have some of that impact. I'm not too happy about the way she left out words tho

If anything she should get shit for letting her nose hang out of her mask and not for her body or weight

Human Nature instead of Martyr... ew. I hope it's a new version. And I hope Kalim was renamed, it sounded so goos I hope there will be other sites that include this bonus track

And that's where the problem's at: The only place to buy it in my country is if I'd get it through the apple store. It's not on Audible or anything

The CD is 18€ which isn't quite cheap

It's not on audible in many countries. Including mine

That's the way things work. They will not change anything for any other reasons but profit. I mean - what's the point of even releasing it early as an audiobook if it's not aviable properly and the physical version only ships in october? If you don't own an apple-product, there is no proper way to listen to it rn.

As long as there is no way to properly buy it outside of the apple/ibook store and the overpriced CD/vinyl/cAsSetTe which ship in october, I'm going to pass. I hope they make a huge loss on this so they decide to handle it better next time I was really intrigued to listen to it, but the way they completely fucked up the rollout ruined it for me

Her not putting the thing up digitally makes 0 sense and is super frustrating. I'm not going to buy an expensive CD or a fucking vinyl/cassette for a spoken-word album or "audiobook". This is such a wannabe hipster bs.

So ... it's not going to be on Amazon, Spotify etc. as a digital audiobook? Bummer
