boom like that

I wasn't following her enough when the HM one dropped unfortunately NFR was probably my first era where I really kept up with her and lived with the prerelease era hype. Before that I just listened to all her music without the prerelease meltdoens

The NFR trailer actually made me cry I think we need to at least have a album trailer this era, it'll feel so incomplete without one It'll also be strange if this is the one era that doesn't get a trailer since it really needs the promo

ironic how I was born from the NFR generation even though well.. we know how I feel about her

Idk I have a feeling we won't hear about it for a long time, you never know with leakers ufb crazy for you HSB studio tease

He said he didn't have it when I talked to him and the only thing he had was White Dress

So I'm gonna spill, so I had a conversation with Eclipse last week about the album and he confirmed to me that the "secret" outtake other than Dealer doesn't exist. Apparently Dealer is the only outtake from COCC that the gays as of now currently know of. Want to clarify that because I was one of the girls who clung to that one piece of misinformation and made several posts about. Apparently the gays also have the entire album including Dealer and Yosemite.

I guess what I'm feeling isn't due to spelling errors but multiple other things aswell but I don't want to derail the thread more than I have (not my question for the culture moment )

I mean yeah I can get that, but it still feels weird to me because I'm Japanese myself and its like a weird mixture of feelings if you can get that lol. Especially when theres profit to be made out of it and its incorrect/improper

I'm not very familiar with the whole process so excuse my ignorance on stuff like this. I just kinda had a feeling it was being sold and using the language as an aesthetic purpose which doesn't sit right with me. But the lack of information can't confirm nor deny that so I'll just hope its Japanese owned because it doesn't seem to be released as a Japanese product in Japan like what @Clampigirl said. Yeah if its like being run and owned by people with Japanese ancestry then thats completely fine. Like I don't want to be that girl, but it did raise some questions for me

I'm looking to and I'm not really finding any info on it, on the store in general. I would hope that it is Japanese owned though, because if not.. I just assumed that this was a Japanese edition that was like being sold in Japan that everyone jumped the gun on because it was numbered and exclusive and stuff. Is it even being sold in Japan?

Wait so is Assai records a japanese owned store?

Don't worry, the organ solo in NAWWAL will blow us all away like never before

I wonder if the yellow vinyls will be different from each other? Probably not but imagine I wonder which yellow mockup is true to the actual color? The yellow obi is the same light yellow as the original yellow mockup but that other site also showed that mustardy bright yellow shade

Omg I took off three days I'm beyond excited, I have everything prepared

Glad that dumpster fire has been taken out to the trash Not All Who Wander Are Lost and Yosemite are still my top two most anticipated, nothing can change that! And yes! They'll both serve!

Not All Who Wander Are Lost and Yosemite are definitely my top two tracks that I'm most excited for.. I'm excited for the whole album obviously but those two are just definitely speaking to me

Taking days off for release pretty much means I'm committed to wait till release if leaks happen, otherwise my days off will be completely pointless It'll be more transcendent listening on release day anyway

The next cassette girl supreme is upon us

The tea is burning white hot today

Even if its been two months it still makes the most sense to release it a week before. Releasing it weeks before would've meant three weeks of silence leading up to the release pretty much. The buzz will be more effective closer to the release date regardless of two months of silence before the single. Plus shes been teasing the song so its not like its been that dead. If I was a casual and I heard Lana just released a single and a album out the week after it'd interest me more than a three week gap, the three week gap would turn me off probably.

From a promotional standpoint, releasing White Dress a week before the album makes complete sense. Releasing it then will give everyone enough time to digest the song by itself without it getting too stale when the albums out because it'll only be a week gap. Not only that but it'll catch the attention of the gp and gain hype for the album, "New single by Lana Del Rey, album out next week." Whereas "new single out, album out in three weeks" will definitely lose the attention of the gp from the single when the albums out, three weeks is close to a month. Considering how stripped down this era is, its already hard enough to gain traction. It makes complete sense to release it on the 12th, the best option really I could see it out this week though. Two weeks isn't that far so its a pretty good time aswell

Listening to LMLYLAW is so comforting now that we've had it for months It feels so familiar and fun jiving with it. It brings me back to the late autumn early winter from when it came out Giving us that time to let it grow really is gonna make us love the album a lot more. So glad it came out as a single first instead of being an album song, we'd definitely would've looked over it 100%

It says its exclusive to all tiers aswell so I'm guessing that includes the $1 tier (theres only 19 of them left though)

The fact that Brooklyn Baby is one of the four explicit songs on UV when its one of the more friendlier songs on the album makes it clear, not explicit =/= mainstream/catering towards the gp But yeah I wouldn't be worried about this album being "mainstream" especially when Lana stated that its a fight for her to listen to the album, Mojo magazine also calling it a personal album

I honestly don't think this album will have her catering towards the mainstream media, like at all. I think it just happened to not be explicit, without any intention too. And Honeymoon only has one explicit song (High By The Beach) and its her most authentic, least mainstream album.
