It’s been teased, but we don’t have anything concrete from anyone reliable (as far as I know). It’s a matter of time before something gets announced, but we’ll see!

In retrospect, we really made the most of those flower pictures! We took a crumb and held a feast (sort of!)

Thank you for taking the time to respond to the question about its relevance! It really is intriguing, and I’m also curious how much of the sample will be retained with this in mind! I think we’re in for a treat

edit: forgot to use spoilers!

Does that phrase have any established relationship to that person, though, or do we think Lana was just rhyming? I don’t watch a ton of movies or keep up with celebrities much (other than Lana lol), so I wasn’t sure!

I lack a lot of knowledge on pop culture, but does the Kintsugi-teased phrase have any relationship to the individual that follows the lyric? Or do we think she’s just rhyming?

This isn’t a Blue Banisters diss at all, but DYKTTATUOB seems a lot like how I expected BB to be: completely fresh work, heavier atmosphere and sonic pop sensibilities despite being piano-based, a handful of angrier tracks, noticeable shifts in mood, etc. Of course, Blue Banisters does share some of these qualities (though I initially expected them to be more amplified), and my mind could completely change about LDR9; after all, I’ve only heard 1 track, and the rest of my assumptions are based off of the observations of others. That being said, I think Lana’s enthusiasm for this record, its alleged rollout, and the praise of others with vastly different tastes are promising, and I’m sure there is some merit to what insiders have divulged, so I’m excited!

I put down my phone right before Kintsugi started & I just got caught up

Since not much is going on, which songs would you all like to hear in a hypothetical album trailer Alternatively, are there any you hope aren’t there for the sake of spoiling the track? Personally, I think Peppers x The Grants x Title Track x Paris, Texas would be a fun mix! I especially want to reserve Taco Truck, Fishtail, A&W, and Grandfather for the album’s release (assuming no singles).

begging y’all to stay on topic anyways I think Taco Truck will be my favorite

TIWMUG based off of initial vibes!

Sonically, I think Sweet will sound like Lana’s cover of You Must Love Me maybe with some Love-song-esque lyricism sprinkled in!

Only picking one for my sanity -BTD -Ride -Is This Happiness -Terrence Loves You -Get Free -hope -White Dress -WFWF

If the boxset goes on sale tomorrow, for instance, about how long until it sells out? I don’t get paid until, like..Wednesday or Friday, and this will be my first pre-release purchase (hopefully lol)

“but you know I’d stand on the corner embarrassed with a picket sign” is seriously one of my favorite lyrics ever

all of LB discussing the mind/marred lyric rn

Can’t wait to see what her setlist looks like

This is how I feel as well. I mean, creating a completely new record itself is a lot of work, and I know if I were her and had been in the industry that long, I’d probably just want to chill and make art without the excess promotional aspect as well. I totally get why people love the visuals/tours/etc, but I think it’s also important to remember she’s human as well. At this point, she doesn’t really need promotion, and she’s mentioned tours being taxing as well (not to mention her personal safety!), but who knows! Maybe she’ll surprise us, but I’m personally pretty content with just getting albums right now (as long as she’s willing)!

I’m telling myself it’s just a review of the song & a positive remark about the album—if it’s anything more I’ll be pleasantly surprised

One of my favorite songs ever, and it has similar themes to Burnt Norton (albeit a little more bleak) Lana doing something in this vein would shatter the earth but society’s not ready for that i fear

Lana doesn’t have time for a TUOB tour because she’s finalizing the tracklist for LDR11

Literally! Or the people who talk over 50% of the lyrics—it pains me

I’m actually really looking forward to watching TUOB (the album) review videos. I think this album will have some interesting twists and turns, and I love seeing how people respond to Lana’s stylistic choices both sonically and lyrically. Even the not-so-positive reviews are interesting, and one can sometimes tell how a reviewer’s musical background and personal preferences shape their perception of Lana’s music. I particularly enjoy this guy’s videos even if they aren’t the most in-depth dive into her work—it’s just a nice, in-the-moment reaction that doesn’t overcomplicate things:
