I would kill for a LFL era 2.0. She didn’t post too much, but it was enough to keep us fed. I’ll never forget her listening to White Mustang and doing her makeup Like she could do that again with Henry. Then that random snippet of the Cherry demo. and then Roses Bloom For You? Magical. and on top of that we were constantly fed a stream of new music. Love (which leaked early little fuckers), Lust For Life, Groupie Love, Summer Bummer, and Coachella. Like I know a lot of fans dislike LFL, but you could tell she really loved it and I’d take even a 10th of that. One snippet in almost a year, and the brief times she has talked about music she sounds so disinterested. I would have been happy if the album announcement had included the same snippet of Henry she posted in January. Just something to affirm she’s excited about what she’s been creating

during her W magazine interview she said “I’ll just sing whatever comes to mind into my Voice Notes app. It’s not perfect, obviously. There are pauses, and I stumble. But I’ve been sending those really raw-sounding files to a composer, Drew Erickson, and he’ll add an orchestra beneath the words, matching each syllable with music and adding reverb to my voice.” so I’d take that to mean she fingertips is a literal voice memo manifesting none of that on TRPWS

Realistically Laura would only be mastering the Jack tracks. That Henry snippet sounds amazingly clear, so I have hope someone from Luke’s team mastered their tracks

originally she said before the end of the year, but she went to instagram last week and said we'd get a couple of songs before Stagecoach in April, so i think the 'two songs by the end of the year' has been delayed

I agree! I'd guess Pink Flamingos, too since it was recorded very closely after that first quote

in light of finding out that UV could have been a double album, that makes this quote really interesting. We've been assuming that the double album would have been songs that had been recorded in the same session as the album, but this makes it seem like we're wrong. It also helps make sense why Freak Like Me sounds very UV, it most likely started out for the second album. I'm really interested if the confirmed 2014 songs (California Crazy For You Honeymoon Freak Soft Ice Cream (Salvatore) 24 Hours Swan Song Blackest Day Pink Flamingos (Music To Watch Boys To) Dark City Dead To Me I Can Fly (rework of original 2013 demo)) have the same kind of UV-esque demos. We Know Dark City and California have a more UV vibe

the ATRL insider seems to be a dupe/liar so for now I'm still gonna believe 111!

well, going by the Henry snippet alone, zero!!

blue banisters says hello. idk don’t get me wrong, I’d love a big moment, but from her own description and the one snippet we’ve gotten the songs are giving me Nectar Of The Gods and Earthquakes

tbh I’m not expecting any big moments for this album. Last we heard about this album she said the songs were stripped back and half cooked, so I’m expecting an album full of Henry come on.

Eclipse said the album was mastered months ago, but that it. ATP I’m not sure what could even be teased. I don’t want any album info spilled six months early, that would make time dragggg

Somehow this wait hasn’t felt nearly as bad as NFR, despite being longer. with the album (apparently) coming out in May I don’t want a single until like February or March, because once we get our first single, and the pre release actually starts, that’s when it gets grueling

I’m so happy for her being sold out, and it’s absolutely incredible the star power she’s built just in the last couple of years, but at the same time I wish she could downsize her tours. Her music has always felt like it belongs in an intimate 500-1000 people crowd and I feel like a piece of her is lost in a big arena

this would have been the perfect explanation if she didn't also say we were getting a few songs before Stagecoach (which is end of April)

I absolutely agree, but I'm sure her and her managers are annoyed at the constant comments about lana under literally every single post they make I think "two singles before Stagecoach and album mid next year" would have been a really good announcement, but truly there is no right answer

in an ideal world, this would discourage people from believing fake insiders, but I already know people are going to be fooled again before this album even comes

no it doesn't he reposted about her fake Rock Candy Sweet announcement and we see how that went personally I don't think we'll get Henry before the end of the year (sadly! I really want it right now) for what it's worth I also believed her about Lasso in September, especially when Jack was interviewed and talked about it like weeks later I do agree that it all feels more credible, but at the same time it doesn't because of the fake date. Admittedly, I'm not sure what she could have done differently. If she would have not included a date, she'd be harassed about it. If she did a vague "2025" she'd be harassed about it. I think she should have either just said "May 2025" or at the very least "May 23rd" since that's a Friday, and therefore more believable.

I do absolutely agree that it seems to be more fleshed out than any random announcement she’s ever made, but all of the info we got (album title, number of tracks, AND producers) is all immediately disqualified by her posting a random non-Friday release date. I know 111 said it was finished and mastered months ago, and while I do hope that’s true, it could also be a classic 111 troll

This is the same woman who posted Henry and announced Lasso 8 months in advance. Her posting album info online (without her label backing it) means next to nothing. You’re going to go mad if you try to find reason in what she does.

I just had a thought I wonder what Luke thought when he heard Lana describe the songs as half baked and said she wasn’t sure about them. He said on Instagram that the songs they wrote were some of his most fulfilling creativity wise, which probably is true bc what we’ve heard of Henry is beautiful, but at the same time it’s such a stark difference in talking about the songs

All day it’s been randomly hitting me *wow. We have a new album announced* and then, seconds later my gut says “yeah, 6 months away and on a Wednesday” and I remember who I stan and to not get my hopes up super high for a May 21st release

Better be for the giver! (Or subway) I wanted one for Good Luck Babe but that ship has sailed and I’d prefer a new song released

A chemtrails over the country club outtake, was retitled rock candy sweet. I remember an insider called it a mix of if you lie down with me and Tulsa Jesus freak. I would assume it was produced by Jack!

I genuinely don't understand how anyone could think this is the cover. For one, the ratio doesn't even fit an album cover two, she might make a lot of random choices for covers, but she isn't going to use a selfie. The album is 8 () 6 months away, so I'd assume the album cover isn't even shot yet. She did the exact same thing with Blue Banisters and people freaked out (rightfully so, that pic is cursed) then too, and then she surprised us with some of her absolute best covers.

I need her to post the real album cover ASAP because it's going to be a long 6 months of "this cover sucks"
