I'm excited for Chaparelle! 

Victorola's are still bad on vinyls dear, get a new stylus if you're gonna use that!!!

I'm so glad that did that she did "Get Free" with Lana, I'm so happy I found this CD- I'm a fan now, do you guys have any recommendations for her best music? This new projects sounds more folk like "Get Free" and she has the voice for it definitely

Okay does anyone have a functioning record? I have gotten three and they all skip super bad...like pretty much the whole record..i'm like is it just me or no?

It's got a lot of static, but once that goes away the sound is cool-what kind of record player are you using? Please tell me it's not a Crosley!!

yeah thats Johnny Danger

WOW I was front row & I didn't recognize him, he WOULD be bffs with Titanic smh his energy was so terrible he gave off the worst vibes

Does Sky have the same band she had a decade ago? I can't tell if the guy who was queing her tracks this past tour was the same as the guy in this video, she acted like she hated him at my show & it looked like they used to vibe in this video (if that's even him)

I have nothing wrong with her other than the fact that her voice is annoying and the two times she’s been featured on a Charli song the production + annoying vocals just ruins the thirty seconds she’s featured for…. It’s really not any deeper than that 

It's so weird how people try to act like you can't dislike someone who's a minority or from a different country. No matter where you're from or who you fuck you can be terrible..

As far as I know this isn't an indie store, it's run by UMG. 

You're right, it's not Indie it's Universal just like UDiscover 

I vaguely remember the screencap from Heavy Metal Heart, does anyone still have it? It was the same lo-fi vibe as the visual she shared with the old Guardian posts

***edited /deleted the rest of this post  because I originally thought she accidentally lost the tape for the music video in a fire but apparently it was some vhs issue and was actually a love in stereo music video???***

 

SO THEN what  tf happened to the heavy metal heart video 😭 😭 

She teased it in like 2014, we all got excited then Grant never shared it

Heavy Metal Heart is my favorite by far. I love how hard it gets, those drums are insane, the verses are amazing. It's just perfectly made. The worst for me are Kristine and Omanko, I just prefer her vibe on the upbeat pop-rock stuff more. The rest are no skips though. Lost in my bedroom should have been there too.

 

She really did a timeless album, the only one she will ever have but at least she can say that.

1000% Omanko is the worst, I was irritated she did it live at my show and excluded Guardian

Marina Diamandis was on shrooms a few years ago, writing what she thought were lyrics for new music. A few days later, she looked at everything she had written and realized she wanted to go beyond just songs.

“I tried, and it just felt so weird,” she tells Rolling Stone. “I suddenly was like, ‘I think these are poems, actually.’ As soon as I accepted that, I started writing poetry every single day. For a whole summer, it was every single morning.”

What came out of those writing sessions was Eat the World, Marina’s debut poetry book, which Rolling Stone can exclusively announce will drop Oct. 29 via Penguin Random House.

The book intertwines Diamandis’ musings with gorgeous artwork as the singer explores her experiences with dating, reflects on some dark moments in her life, and examines her early career and her “Marina and the Diamonds” days with compassion.

Diamandis says the poetry captures a side of her that’s much more vulnerable and less processed. “There’s stuff that still feels slightly embarrassing to me, but it’s because I am exposing a genuine part of myself that maybe isn’t as glam and glitzy as I would like to portray,” Diamandis admits. “But I think that’s a healthy thing. That’s freedom to me: being able to show up as yourself and being OK with it.”

From her home in Los Angeles, Diamandis spoke about several of her Eat the World‘s poems and gave Rolling Stone an update about her upcoming music:

You’ve been talking about the poetry book for two years now. In October 2022, you tweeted, “I’ve been writing a poetry book this last year. It’s spicy, and brutal, and funny, and sad, and kind of like my lyrics, but way more savage.”
Oh my God. Is it that long ago? It is going to be exactly that. Books just take time to write, especially, with poetry. There is a parallel to an album in that you are encapsulating one chapter of your life, and this definitely felt like that. Sometimes, you can’t decide when it’s done until it feels instinctively like it’s finished. It’s been done for about six months.

How are songwriting and poetry writing different for you?
I’ve discovered this magical new form of expression where I can still story-tell like I do with my songs, but I’m able to be way more honest and open about things that is just not possible with songwriting. I love the element of fantasy still with pop and with concepts, and sometimes, you have to forego a little bit of the objectivity of a situation for that. So with poetry, it’s completely different. It’s like I’m able to play with and process the past in a completely different format. It’s like there’s no rules.

What have you learned about yourself through the process?
I really learned about the parts of myself that I wasn’t comfortable with at all. I think, on the subject of relationships, they’re amazing because they are mirrors for us. Even being out of relationship, if something ends or if you’re doing random dating, all of those things just show us different parts of ourselves. The book has allowed me the space to be able to explore thing I wasn’t happy about myself in a way that I just don’t think I could have with music. 

“Sex Robot” was very relatable, and touches on your experience dating in your 30s. What’s that been like?
I can’t be totally honest, because we’re doing an interview! I think we all struggle with that no matter what age because I think we are living in a very confusing time. The way that we function on social media has distorted the way that we perceive our lives and other people’s lives. I’m very much focused on how my life feels as opposed to how it looks. I’m just feeling very happy and content in myself now.

What does the “Eat the World” poem reflect about the rest of the book?
It was one of the first poems I wrote. I wanted to encapsulate this feeling I’d had throughout my teens and my twenties that drove a lot of my work at the time. It’s like this insatiable need to be loved, essentially, and no matter what you achieve, there’s nothing that can really fill it permanently. I don’t feel like it’s tapping into negative things. I think it was just a reflection on how things were, and I wrote that when I got out of my record deal with Atlantic. It was a real end of an era where I could look at how I had been. I don’t think I really am looking for validation in the same way at all. I think now, it’s just like, is it fun? Is it going to contribute something positive in the world? Otherwise, why am I doing it?

It seems like you’re going through a transitional time in your life.
Definitely. I don’t even know what’s coming with music. All I know is that I feel different, and I also don’t feel in a mad rush. I feel like this next record’s going to be important, and I think the poetry book is also reflective of that. I’m able to take a left turn and do something that was genuinely just for the joy of doing it. I’m in a separate part of my memory bank. That’s how it feels.

You seem more free. Are you?
Yes. I am. Thanks for noticing.

What’s that like?
Oh my God. It’s amazing. Wait. Let me ask you. Do you feel free?

I don’t think so. I feel so stuck on this idea of where I want to be. I feel so chained to the idea of what I want in the future that I don’t feel like I’m free right now.
That’s so interesting. You’ve sparked something in my head, because when we go through these feelings, we think that we’re the only ones that could possibly be feeling that specific thing. For myself, it’s just related to how I grew up and feeling scared actually to be who I want to be. I think the last few years, I’ve really broken through that. I would always walk around the world thinking that everyone is free except for me, which is so ludicrous. I think a lot of us in creative professions are doing it because it makes us feel free in some way. It’s like a portal to freedom. Poetry has made me feel free, because it’s writing about things that, if I’m quite honest, I would rather people not know.

How has your relationship with the Electra Heart, Family Jewels era changed? 
I feel so much more compassion for that version of myself. It feels very far away. It is hard to even watch interviews from that time, because I’m like, “Who is she?” Whenever I hear those records, I love them. I love my past, and it also always helps to listen to them right before I’m doing a new record. Because I want to know where I’ve come from, and what I’d like to bring in, what energy I want to bring in. I think this time, it’s an opportunity to do something really different.

You mentioned you’re working on new music. What’s the update on that?
I’ve been writing for six months. It’s still at the beginning. I haven’t started producing anything yet. Part of me is desperate to get things out, but also, part of me is just saying, “Enjoy this process.” Because this is my favorite thing: to build the record and build the world around it. I don’t have any timeline yet, but sooner rather than later. I know it’s been a while, but I’ve had things going on.

Looking at the lyrics of L&F and ADIAML I am NOT looking forward to this.

 

Unrelated to the book - I just listened to The Last Dinner Party's debut record and I feel like it's givibg major TFJ/Die Life vibes. So if you are an "early MATD" fan, you shouldprobably check that out!

The girl just pronounces words like Marina, neither her voice or lyrics can hold a candle to Marina ESPECIALLY The Family Jewels.

C’mon girl it’s a figure of speech. Countless artists have spoken out about this. I can acknowledge sky’s faults she not a saint, but we can also acknowledge that she’s clearly trying to do something with breaking the contract and going on tours 

Facts. Mindless consumers proving how high the demand is for Sky's supply by trying to downplay her worth on a forum dedicated to her. People have no idea how record deals work and the way the label literally OWNS you the second you sign a massive record deal. It's been clear they were trying to shelve her, they already stole the majority of her 20s from her. When you speak out against the "man" you're gonna face the consequences. I'm proud of her bravery. Hopefully she'll get her masters back, she's still the same girl she was when she got signed, sure she's older & disillusioned by the lies h-wood tries to sell you, but she really brought "Pretty Dull" back for a few dates last year and sang new songs in the middle of a battle for her artistry. If she gets her entire catalog back, she could drop the old pop albums if she wanted to, Night Time B-Sides Part 2 and so many other things. The fact that's she's still out here using her gifts and showing the fans she's still breathing is absolutely amazing. She's a tough bitch, the odds may have been stacked against her the past several years, but if she really got out of her record deal she's only going up from here. If she gets out with her masters teenage Sky + all the fans who grew up with her will be massively vindicated. It's disgusting seeing so many negative losers spew hate online, Sky's in a position where she needs love and encouragement. I wouldn't want to give my "fans" shit after seeing all the nasty drivel these wannabe keyboard warriors have vomited on this site.

I hear you, but how people spend their money is up to them. Maybe you need to take a break from Sky/the thread 

Literally, it's giving unhinged obsessive psychopath vibes. I know so many people who traveled to see Sky this last tour and loved everything about it. Some people are just so chronically pessimistic + dopamine deprived they actually get angry seeing other people enjoying life and what it has to offer

i really hate slut pop, not as a concept (i love a good ayesha rip off moment) but the songs are TRASH. the lyricism is lazy, the production even more so. her career became such a mess the moment she signed to that label, i miss the clarity days

So bad. The beats are headache inducing in addition to the disgusting lyrics. 

Why release Slut Pop 2 when she has Candy collecting dust? So weird milking a (shitty) idea that she already did
