I hope y'all who are listening the hell out of that leak will do the same when the album is available on streaming platforms august 30th

 

I mean, listening on repeat to songs with that quality is a clown ass move. After you listen like once or twice you don't even feel the need to anymore cause of the quality so it's all good lmao. (well at least for me)

The quality is shit but that hasn’t stopped me from listening to Cinnamon 73 times,,,,

yeaaaah i agree with this, but i actually think it works.  the whole album feels a little half finished, from the messy era to the cover art to the shitty recording quality of the leak (which really just adds to the vintage feel to me tbh), but i think it does work.  i think its a throwback to like all her unreleased shit getting leaked, which ultimately made her the icon she is bc it was just that good.  some of her best songs are unreleased demos that sound unfinished and raw, and i think this album captured that raw feeling really well.  and it proves her talent as a musician bc she can just sing a beautiful melody atop a simple piano track and its stunning af.  i really cunt believe im a Lana fan again.

i agree, i havent listen to the leaks besides the greatest, but im thinking the same, it reminds me of her unreleased stuff so much, it feels raw and simple <3

Where is that user who works at Target when we need him the most?

[Foxglove 2,266]

can we talk about how bad the “interludes” in HIAB sound?

The bits where she’s like “I was one thing now I’m being another” so bad... soooo bad

Maybe it’s just me but literally ruined the song for me

 

HIAB was the track i cared about the least, and now its one of my faves.  

i thought it was so cringy at first, but it grew on me, especially the little interludes where her voice goes real high briefly.  idk its so not like any other Lana-ish sound, so it caught me off guard but i kinda love it now after a few listens

nvm i cant fucking read

[Flowerbomb 65,555]

Is it true the album got pushed back to 13 September or has this been debunked

 

Not true. People just like to be dramatic.

[lagatabajolalluvia 384]

Nope it’s always been “on back order until Aug 30” so it’s still available!! It’s just on pre-order is all. It might have sold out but they DID restock if that’s the case

  

it was for a few hours/days. But they restocked and now it is not limited, because it doesn't say anymore that it's limited to 10k.

omg! thanks for the clarification, I was scared to get excited and buy it only to be refunded shortly

I swear to fuck, if you’re serious don’t even dare come into the post release thread saying it’s stale and old in 2 weeks.......

[FFXSoul91 1,007]

I think The Greatest should have been the closing song for the album. It would have been perfect.

[house of balloons 12,770]

those leaks are so fucking bad i can't even remember what each song sounds like, why would anyone stream them if not to get an ear congestion 

[Psychedelic Pussy 28,979]

I swear to fuck, if you’re serious don’t even dare come into the post release thread saying it’s stale and old in 2 weeks.......

Why is everyone who hasn’t listened to the leaks acting soooo fucking bitter, like, girl!

The song is never gonna be *stale*, I’ve been listening to UV regularly since 2014 and u think after 2 weeks I’m gnna think a song is stale? Cinnamon is literally so godly. The second verse, the drop, the way her voice flutters over the instrumental, the OUTRO! Like... I’m gonna have this song blasting on the daily. This is my new jam.

How anyone could think such a timeless bop could ever go stale.....

I can’t wait for u to listen to it when the album drops so we can both live this dream

[nationalxanthem 1,308]

i just found out how to use this  

 

[CmonDownToFL 6,680]

Those are the best parts for me.

 

I love how the song rapidly switches in mood.

[house of balloons 12,770]

why is everyone slandering hiab, she's cute  

[Fingertips 72,117]

People who haven't listened to the leaks sound awfully bitter and incredibly dramatic
