Norman Fucking Rockwell - Pre-Release Thread

[Psychedelic Pussy 30,108]

This sublime cover really might quench my thirst for a couple months.....

The lyrics, the production, her VOICE ahhhhhh

[mrborntolose 9,967]

well it’s over...but well on it’s way to not being so over anymore

[Rorman Nockwell 56,711]

She needs to stop behaving like a sloth on oxycontin and use the momentum from the DT release to release another single not long after. Has to. She's irritating, but she isn't stupid, and it'd be stupid not to.

So genuinely asking.

How's everyone been heightening the listening experiences of the tracks we've gotten so far?

I've been listening to keyboard smash just now and feel like just unwinding w some coffee and cigarettes don't judge me I was afraid of this. Sincerity is scary.mp3

You know, a month ago it was all poetry, poetry, poetry, and everyone was like "WHERE THE FUCK IS YOUR ALBUM?", and now it's just Insta saddie shit + the snippet (which I maintain we only got because she had to say something because of the doco) ... and the poetry has disappeared. 

 

No news about the book, no poems ... what the fuck? Has she lost interest in that, too? 

 

The only reason I care is because we ain't gettin' the album 'til we get that. 

 

I have nfi what that bitch is doing. 

 

 

I have a feeling Lana gets bored quickly and easily. I hope she is still releasing the poetry book.

Since she's so much into Nina Simone, I'd love to hear her covering Summertime. I like that they sampled it in Doin' Time but it doesn't compare to the original.

[Creyk 11,699]

ugggghhhhhhhhhh i can't stand the wait i rlly just want hiab is that too much to ask for? i really don't care about the poetry book or whatever cover she releases.. fr she d e s t r o y e d my hype for everything she puts out so much that nothing can excite me, except the album (and i lowkey only love hiab. sorry cinnamon). when i say that i have no hype for that documentary cover, i really mean it. like i didn't feel SHIT.

I'm pretty sure most people agree with you. Except for the not liking cinnamon part.

Wha I find annoying is that the snippets she posted so far are all better than the songs we actually did get in full.

[Beautiful Loser 48,827]

I think I've finally accepted that we won't get the album this month, next month, not in July and not in August either. I'm so disappointed but whatever I guess. I'll live.

[kitschesque 9,882]

I'm trying to convince myself not to expect anything but that sudden rush of joy I'd felt when she posted the Doin Time snippet is so tempting

It truly doesn't feel like a release cycle at all. Hell it doesn't feel like any cycle at all lmao we're just wandering in the dark trying to put 3 broken pieces into an era FOR HER

[Make me your Dream Life 87,810]

Not counting the weekend, we've got somewhere round a week til the song drops. Give it a good week til it fades to b safe, n then it'll b June th did the year go?

She's probably still figuring out how to release it without causing riots in whatever bookstores in Silver Lake she drops it off at. There will almost certainly be more people wanting it than there are copies available.

 

She might not even tell anyone when she's dropped it off. That wouldn't surprise me at all.

[Prettywhenyoudye 1,512]

i’m bored

Hunty join the club

[Life 3,966]

the meltdowns in here are so fucking funny 

 

this website is literally a mental institute.

[GeminiLanaFan 49,038]

She said it's got surf elements, RHCP influence, whatever the fuck ... that's a summer album.

 

So ... wouldn't you release that ... in the summer?

Didn’t she say the last songs of the album have that? I only expect 3 or 4, the rest will mostly be piano driven. That doesn’t seem too summer for me.

[triangles19 2,454]

I don't like this snippet teasing promo, it's kinda alienating, we're checking endlessly for the release of songs that never come, it can be cool if things happen, but here it's an aggressive marketing to hold our attention. Can't we just listen to the music ?
 

Btw I think she's bringing her album on summer to fit Doin' Time lyrics/vibe.

+ I got the feeling this track will be a new West Coast.

She said:

 

“It was in the vein of a Laurel Canyon sound,” she told R1, “and it’s kind of transformed a little bit because there’s some surf elements to some of the songs – it’s not really surfy like Dick Dale but a lot of electric guitar, a little Red Hot Chili Peppers influence in there.”

 

As usual, she's vague as all fuck, but she makes it sound summery.

[bloodsucker 145]

Am I the only one that doesn’t like snippets? I just want to hear the music new and fresh all at once or get a full leaked song? idk

[Flowerbomb 65,594]

OKAY YALL. I heard the other snippet from the festival and whew it sounded good af I love how you hear the harp and then it gets into the cool beat. And I love the way she sings 'tangeriiIInne"

 

Now what's all this drama about Disney?
