Y'all I just thought about this. So, remember in that one interview Melanie did back in 2019 or something where she said Crybaby's growth isn't gonna be literal. Judging off of the music video, I'm assuming that Crybaby's old self has died and her old self is being mourned. I don't think Crybaby has died in a literal sense. She's going through a spiritual transformation. Everyone missed her old self but she's saying that even though she's evolved or evolving she's not really gone. But it could also apply in a literal sense where someone has passed away and they're trying to reassure their loved ones that they're always there. I don't know if this makes sense or not but this is my thoughts on DEATH.

I agree. There was misinformation on both sides and I think the situation should've been addressed better on Melanie's part but that was so long ago. And yet people love to bring up stuff that happened years ago on Twitter because they have nothing better to do with their life. It's sad.

I am SO tired of seeing people bring up all those allegations from 2017 everytime Melanie releases new music.

I have this theory about PORTALS. So, track 1 is DEATH and track 13 is WOMB. What if track 13 loops back to track 1 (I hope it happens) because the album is about the cycle of life and death. At the beginning of DEATH, we hear "Life is death is life is death is life is..." Now, here's my theory for track 13 WOMB. What if track 13 is a hint for the next album? What if the next album after PORTALS is about Crybaby's next life?

Been listening to DEATH all day. I LOVE the production and the way Melanie says "DEATH" in the background in that one part of the song. I'd say it's her best album opener.

Y'all today marks 10 years since Ode to Dawn Wiener: Embarrassing Love Songs was released. Also I watched Welcome to the Dollhouse for the first time today and I wish it was a longer movie.

I think the new album has such an interesting concept. I love the storyline and the lyrics and the production. Nicole has evolved as an artist, but her music still sounds like her if that makes sense. You can really tell how much she's evolved just by listening to her other 6 albums.

This is a great idea! I've thought the same thing ever since K-12 was released. She should've just waited to do the movie in the future rather than put it out at the same time as the album. Luckily she'll be doing that for her new album. Also I like the concept you mentioned, "here are some songs about Crybaby's teenage relationships/years" . I honestly would've just loved an album focused on Crybaby's teenage years. And I think the vintage polaroid aesthetic she had would've been great for music videos as well.

The tweet

My favorite song off the album is 'Nymphs Finding the Head of Orpheus'. I've probably listened to it a hundred times at this point. Also, did y'all know that 'Nymphs Finding the Head of Orpheus' was a painting from the 1890s? I think that's very interesting.

@rancidgirl thank you so much 🙏

Idk if this is true or just a rumor but I saw a comment on Instagram saying that Ethel Cain will be featured on the songs 'Bad Man' and 'I'll Wait For You To Call'. So i guess we'll just have to wait and see. I'm hoping it's true.

I hope Nicole posts the album's cover and the album's title and tracklist soon. I hope we don't have to wait until January 6th to find out. Also guessing by that clip Nicole posted there will be a music video for the title track and there might be a couple of other music videos for other songs off the album. I can't wait!

Spotify has been sending notifications to fans about Melanie Martinez releasing new music soon. (mels.clubhouse via Instagram ) (melspurgatory via Twitter) So with that being said, expect the lead single sometime between January and March.

Honestly at this point the album should be released January - March 2023. Then she should work on the videos later. I'm hoping she just puts out videos for this next era because if she tries to make a film as well, she most likely won't have enough money to give back to Atlantic.

Nicole hasn't announced the next single yet and she probably won't until January. Considering the next single is the title track I'm gonna assume the title track is coming on January 6th unless Nicole releases it next Friday the 23rd (though I think it's unlikely). I hope the next single comes out next Friday, but I guess we'll see.

I have a feeling that the new single will be out next Friday. I have a feeling the new single will come out next Friday. Nicole will probably post something early next week.

Update: someone shared a snippet that Nicole posted in December 2019 on Twitter and Nicole said that that song will be the third & final single instead. She apparently changed her mind. She said the third & final single will be released next month (I had already assumed before she said anything). Hope this makes sense. If not check out the replies under her latest tweet (it was posted yesterday). I wanted to share screenshots but idk how to do that 😭

Just went over to Twitter and Nicole confirmed that we'll have to wait until January 6th to hear the title track. Also, a fan shared the snippet of a song Nicole posted in 2021. I think it was the one where she sings, "You may just be the death of me." She said she's thinking of putting that song out as the third & final single before the album comes out (I'm assuming the song will be released sometime next month).

I just want Deep End to leak

Does anyone know more about this? I wonder which old song was redone. Also I wonder what MDT stands for?

She said her favorite song is either Moonlite or the title track. She won't say anything about the title track yet but I'm sure we'll find out whenever she posts the tracklist. When asked about the title track she said she's saving it for the record (I'm assuming we won't get to hear the title track until the album comes out although that would've been the perfect first single for the album in my opinion based off the snippets Nicole posted).

I have a feeling we're not getting a single until next year. The album's probably not getting released until September 2023. We haven't had any update from Melanie in a while. Hopefully she'll give us an update soon.

The new single comes out on Friday!! I can't wait to listen to the song.

Yes it's the title track. Nicole replied to someone's comment on Instagram and confirmed it. She also said Atropa Belladonna will be a song on the album. I can't wait for this track to be released though. I wonder if it's the song that'll be released on the 25th. I hope so I've loved this snippet and I know I'll love the full song.
