Needle and thread, Magnets, and Leeches are strong tracks for such "acoustic" sound, I'm hoping they made it onto the album. There's been a lot of people saying her best music is usually unreleased, and while I think part of it is her record label making those decisions, I also think she just doesn't think the material is very strong. She's had a habit of putting so much pressure on building such specific stories, worlds, and sound for her albums that she's scrapped anything that didn't match perfectly to her ideas. This left us with a lot of amazing leaks, but the thing is, the scrapped material was usually better than what it was replaced with, and no one wants to have to turn to leaks to find decent material.
I'm hoping this new era will bring us something newer, bolder, and fully Melanie. And hopefully, one day she'll break from Atlantic Records. But until her films are finished or she's able to find funding elsewhere, I don't see that happening.

Why do you all think she's going to scrap this entire upcoming album when she's been planning it carefully since K-12 was still being made? I highly doubt she's thinking of giving up on or rewriting her entire vision because a relatively small portion of her fans heard some leaks, most of which may or may not even be studio ready. It would be the definition of "punishing the whole class for the actions of a few bad kids", and that just doesn't sound like something she'd do, especially at this point. If anything, she's doing best by refusing to acknowledge the MM3 leaks.
 

Exactly!  
I mean, it's true *some* fans already had access to this material, but like half of these tracks are evidently unfinished. It would've been way better if nothing would've leaked at all, but at this point I don't think she would scrap it and start from scratch. And considering what she said about this film not being her first one, and that she already knows what to avoid when working on it, it's possible it takes her a little less than the last time to finish. This material and concept are so good to be shelved.

agree
TBH this makes sense and i hope your are right

I know 17 is an exaggeration but there were only 4 versions of that too. And night mime. 
I'd like for the use of that f word to never happen. Regardless of whether you identify as gay, etc let's not use it.

its not their fault that a bunch of little kids got into their stuff, yes they did need mroe security but they didnt even know ... and when they did know it was too late. Also not their fault that the same little kids couldn't keep upcoming material to themselves... 

I really don’t want her to go back to Keenan. It’s really refreshing to finally be hearing something different from his work so I just wish they’d figure out something better in terms of security. Clearly whatever they’re using isn’t working. They should just go back to ole faithful and put everything on a flash drive at this point. 

What has leaked in listeanable quality? (from the new album)

I'm lost.
 
 
 
 
I don't know why she just can't make music without a forced story.

There's no effing way Moon Cycle meant to be released, lol. I just can't believe babe really made a song about being on her period that sounds like a 13 year old wrote it and actually intended it to be on a studio album. 🙄 I honestly think we got the best l*aks first with Sirens, Tunnel Vision, Leeches, etc.
