No credits for The Trio btw. Who the hell made those trap sounds then?

I thought there were synths in BB, no? @TextBook and @lanasbottom are right though. Wildflower Wildfire has those distorted drums etc. which haven't been listed either. So things are definitely missing. Anyway, I'm very excited about If You Lie Down With Me and Violets for Roses.

Apart from not mentioning Rob on Sweet Carolina, these credits don't mention the synths on Blue Banisters or the distorted drums on Wildflower Wildfire for example. So yeah they are incomplete. I just noticed that Barrie isn't listed on the IYLDWM credits at all. I wonder if the song was in a very very rough form when Lana worked on it with Barrie back in the day. Anyway apparently we have: -> guitars + drums + keyboards on Black Bathing Suit -> trumpets + tubas + drums + guitar + piano + keyboards on If You Lie Down With Me -> piano on Beautiful & Sweet Carolina -> violins + violas + violoncello + synths + piano on Violets for Roses

I just noticed that Sweet Carolina is two seconds longer than expected. What if Lana scrapped Rob's recording, replaced it with Erickson's recording session and hasn't told Rob yet?

It's 100% reworked. Erickson is credited as a co-writer of the song unlike, say, Nectar of the Gods. I suppose Lana wanted consistency in terms of sound so the middle section seems to follow Arcadia's soundscape with all the trumpets on IYLDWM and the violins on VFR. And these are all Erickson collaborations. Unsurprisingly, the good sis Zach Dawes is keeping the rockier elements of Thunder/California on Black Bathing Suit with all the drums and guitars.

The insiders flopping again when they realize they had access to demos and not the real thing again.

If she did remove the guitars on NOTG and LL then both songs are reworked. On the other hand I think these credits are incomplete. For example, Sweet Carolina mentions Drew Erickson but not Rob who 100% plays the piano. Anyway, Violets for Roses having violins and violoncello is EVERYTHING. And If You Lie Down With Me with all the trumpets and tubas. And Miss Black Bathing Suit with guitars and drums.

I hope Chuck serves giraffe realness on the back cover then. Just like her sister.

Chaotic is an understatement...

So my dog farted => scat incoming => album leak tonight ladies. Get in formation.

Fixed it. Thanks, I had no idea.

Text Book Blue Banisters Arcadia Interlude - The Trio Black Bathing Suit If You Lie Down With Me Beautiful Violets for Roses Dealer Thunder Wildflower Wildfire [red basically but I can't use it] Nectar of the Gods Living Legend Cherry Blossom Sweet Carolina Tracks 1-2: Different shades of blue. Text Book is much darker and grittier than Blue Banisters. Tracks 3-4: Arcadia is pale yellow, almost white. The Trio is brownish. Tracks 5-6: Black and grey. Simple stark colors. Tracks 7-11: Shades of red basically. Beautiful is softer, lighter. Violets for Roses is more romantic but bittersweet. Dealer is velvet red; deep and emotional. Thunder is more balanced; a transition. Wildflower Wildfire is the most expressive one. Tracks 12-13: Petrol, metallic and oily colors. Tracks 14-15: Very light pink and yellow. Sweet and soft. A rosy sunset and the sand of the beach.

She's a nuisance to Lana, that's for sure.

What is happening?!

I hope there's a twist and Lana serves background vocals only.

This is very entertaining...the album leak is coming I fear.

Joan Baez and Stevie Nicks performing splits while listening to Queen of Disaster...

People actually think that this "insider" is trustworthy?

Can't wait for Tex and Mex's harmonies during the bridge of Violets for Roses.

Yeah. How the hell can a Honeymoon-esque jazz ballad be the most "commercial" track on the album?
