Well sometimes labels force artists to make songs that would go viral in order to get more streams, so maybe there's that - which I hate ngl because it sometimes means decrease in quality

The way the NTMT 10-year anniversary is closer than any hope of Masochism to come before it hit today

Yep, it's the mandatory skip. I never liked it and honestly the chorus is so rubbish lmao It was not my intention to bash the album just like that Portals is definitely a step in the right direction in all fronts since K-12/After School, but I honestly still feel a little hesitant about the project as a whole. Aside from so many intros and outros that sometimes do not add much to the tracks looking at you, Faerie Soirée and The Contortionist intros, and the vocal production in many songs, the album definitely has strong points and some career highlights imo (Tunnel Vision, The Contortionist, Evil, Pluto). I'm definitely happy we got the deluxe because in the end I love all three new songs and it was a nice addition - I can happily ditch skip Moon Cycle, Nymphology and Spider Web, keep the deluxe tracks and not fearing an extra short album. It's just it's taken me longer than other Melanie albums to fully enjoy even K-12, back in the day I bopped to most of that but now... I don't, but I have hopes that it will grow on me with time. And probably I still mourn for the loss of Needle & Thread, Fingers Crossed and the original Death, Garden and the original Void too. But that's on me because I was so avid for new material that I gave in to the leaks year and a half ago. Sorry for the essay

Okay so she posted two photos in the studio on her InstaStories today... I moved very slightly She could go there and make 100 more songs but where are they girl we need deluxe

English is not my first language either but I can't unhear the lyrics now so they became skips I guess. Same with Nymphology. The rest are much better for me

Not Moon Cycle but yeah, I agree with the rest, mostly about the intros and outros - they would've been better for the film itself, probably the album without that many transitions would be more digestible.

ngl I'd still add them unless they're like gibberish concept demos

I hope If I Fall, Taste of My Own and Mirror somehow see the light of day, they're too good to be left unreleased

Oh the album is truly a masterpiece the tracklist is a little wonky but every song (not you Cute & Cruel) is excellent. Borderline as well, I can't wait for more

ngl I really need this album to grow on me and I'm not even saying I don't like it. Death, Void, Tunnel Vision, Færie Soirée, Venus, Light Shower, Battle of the Larynx, The Contortionist, Amulet, Evil, Womb, Powder, Pluto, Sirens... I literally love all of them but somehow something still has not clicked for me and I don't know why maybe I need to listen on loop or something

Somebody shared the HQ rip a while ago! Here: Groupie Love (Alt. Version) [HQ Rip] Also added a little remaster I did in case y'all are interested

Unreleased album? What did I miss

While I would absolutely adore songs like Pretty Dull, Innocent Kind and All My Lovers Die, I'm really craving to get songs we have heard less/zero from like Vitriol Kisses, Gaslight, Mourning After, Chug Knives or title track forgive me if we got snippets from these other than Masochism title track, I don't keep up with them ---------------------- On another note, look ma I made it, someone placed one of my fanmade Masochism artworks on Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masochism_(album) btw if anyone wants the artwork in HQ, it's here.

I mean she's on tour... maybe it is still happening but not quite soon (bummer). No announcement has been given but I'll still wait sometime before losing hope I guess

On shuffle they would definitely sound cut off but I usually never play music in shuffle so that's fine. I was planning on leaving the tracklist as I placed them in the previous post, with the split songs as follows: The Grants Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd American Whore (4:09) Jimmy Interlude (3:04) Candy Necklace (feat. Jon Batiste) Paris, Texas Fingertips Grandfather please stand on the shoulders of my father while he's deep-sea fishing Kintsugi Let the Light In (feat. Father John Misty) Sweet Margaret (feat. Bleachers) Fishtail Peppers (feat. Tommy Genesis) Taco Truck (2:55) Venice Bitch (Original Version) [2:58] Instead of A&W (7:13) and Taco Truck x VB (5:53) Like, they would still be continuous but just as separate tracks. But you're right, the transitions are so seamless it would sound weird. Mostly the spoken part in Taco Truck where VB starts.

Lana Del Rey - Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd (2023). Basically this is what I settled with and I absolutely love it. The Grants Did you know that there's a tunnel under Ocean Blvd A&W Candy Necklace (feat. Jon Batiste) Paris, Texas Fingertips Grandfather please stand on the shoulders of my father while he's deep-sea fishing Kintsugi Let the Light In (feat. Father John Misty) Sweet Margaret (feat. Bleachers) Fishtail Peppers (feat. Tommy Genesis) Taco Truck x VB I've been thinking of splitting A&W and Taco Truck into two tracks each but I haven't done it yet lol

I totally agree with Hit It From the Back and Revelations being on the album, but Sex Talk? She's cute but girl, Je T'adore, Your Time to Cry, Born Again and Deeper were right there at least I know there are 3 non-skips in the album (4 if counting Claws which made it too)

Well apparently she confirmed in TikTok that the stripped EP is not Dirt Femme deluxe so we still can hope for new tracks soon

I don't know if it's coming an EP entitled Dirt Femme Stripped containing 6 stripped tracks from the album + Borderline stripped is coming tomorrow and I have the bad feeling that THAT is set to be the deluxe I mean I'm glad we have Borderline because is a bop and a half but I am still hoping for 1 or 2 more new songs.

very late but I started to like brrr recently. might as well add it as a bonus or something

May the leakers hear you, I'm avid for those tracks

Yup yup, the album was full of fun bops. FSN, Revelations, Je T'adore, Deeper, Born Again, Left My Body, Your Time to Cry? Pretty solid if you ask me by far, FSN is the best song she put out since Turn Off the Light full, with Malibu as a close second.

I have it! Hold on, let me post it somewhere. EDIT: Here you go! Bonnie McKee - Don't Talk Back

I'd suggest Revelations, Deeper, Your Time to Cry and Born Again. All She Wants and Je T'adore are great too.

Ohhh I would love to read this as well!
