Norman Fucking Rockwell - Pre-Release Thread

[divebarsinger 2,715]

imagine the sheer impact if we'd never heard any snippets and she'd just released the damn thing. imagine those first few listens. imagine how one track would sit next to another and potentially change our enjoyment of each one when listened to as a whole. FFS

NFR? NFR???

 

Oh my fuckin god, she dead.

[LanaFlowers 8,752]

yall are really doing the most this era lmaooo as if you only now noticed all this shit

 

you guys are just salty we have no info on NFR

Speaking for myself alone, I definitely admit I turned a blind eye to things I shouldn't have ignored. I'm really sorry about that, I mean it. I regret it 100% and I would not do it again. I've learned my lesson. Thank you NFR mess, guess I needed that

[SparkleJumpropeNoose 8,750]

Kinda really want Doin' Time on NFR, because I'd like to listen it on vinyl

A highly unrealistic but great concept: Doin Time 7" vinyl........... my dream..............

[LanaFlowers 8,752]

no one said she didn't have problems. you're purposefully not reading what's been said, we were specifically talking about trauma and her potentially covering subjects there's no indication she has personal experience of as part of a 'persona'

being denied financial support but also knowing you conditionally have financial support to fall back on if you make lifestyle changes is entirely different from socioeconomic based poverty where you die in the gutter with no other options, so yes.. although it was bad for her it DOES sound privileged compared to a lot of others circumstances sorry

And how do we even know she was denied financial support?

[honeycookie 1,032]

welp, lana deleted my comment just like i predicted earlier. it’s over! time 2 unfollow and i guess know that whatever i’m stanning from this point on is a ghost

 

this was my comment btw, i wasn’t even being disrespectful which i guess annoys me the most because now i wish i was. i’m also gonna take this as a sign that NFR’s scrapped.

weeelll exactly lol. i mean...this is all her perspective. she says her family weren't that wealthy but they could also afford to send her to boarding school when she was behaving badly. this is all very relative

[LanaFlowers 8,752]

No it does not you are just grasping at very far SJW straws to hate on an amazing person with your 96 posts

@@LanaFlowers they keep swimming into the net idk

[LanaFlowers 8,752]

It's her having normal friends that aren't homeless drug addicts or schizos that they can't understand. It ignites some severe hatred inside them for some reason. 

 

Lana bonding with her gal pals and finding a supportive community suddenly invalidates every single thing she's done and written about in the past decade, it appears. She's not allowed to seek change and surround herself with less destructive people, if it were up to LanaBoard users. Eyeroll!

a supportive homophobic cult, how wonderful

 

Jane, Stella, Pam, Abel, Klaus, Anna, Jaime, Kyle, Blake, Miles, Dan, Alex, Ashley, Byron, etc didn't seem like homeless drug addicts or schizos to me. She's had problematic friends before the saddie crew, like Azaelia and Courtney, but come on.

[Flowerbomb 65,593]

Okay the fact that she's deleting comments seems to be very telling about the album. I wouldn't be surprised if she has scrapped it after all this time. @@GeminiLanaFan I know you're gonna pull your hair out at my comment, but something smells fishy here right now, so I can't help but really wonder if this is the case.

 

Maybe not even scrapped it, but she could be re-working some new songs to replace the 'oldies' MAC and VB. I mean c'mon. It would be ridiculous to keep them on NFR even though your entire fanbase has heard them since last year. But I could be wrong too.

 

Who knows what's up. Maybe Lana just wanted everyone to focus on DT, but is instead being bombarded with NFR questions so she got salty and is deleting them out of annoyance. This isn't a drag @ anyone who asked her about NFR, I would have done the same tbh.

 

But yeah...something's up.

Idk if I sound like a crackhead here with this wild ass theory but am I the only one who feels like the NFR lead up has been weirdly similar to the AKA one? Aka was recorded in 2008 and she released an ep of 3 songs from it in fall ‘08 and was supposed to release it early ‘09 but it was shelved and she was forced to put everything on hold and just live her life then it was finally released early 2010. Ok so we know nfr was recorded in 2018 and she gave us 2 songs in the fall (and another in Jan) and the album was supposed to be out at “the top of 2019” but we’ve had no news and Lana seems to just be living her life so idk I keep thinking the album will be out Jan 2020 to parallel completely whether deliberately (transitioning back to Lizzy? Leaving her label? Idk) or just a weird coincidence the universe set up or maybe I’m just connecting things that aren’t related lol. I first started thinking that when she was on her old twitter and said something about how over 10 years things have changed but haven’t changed at all. Thought I’d finally share my delusional theory with everyone. And yeah I know it’s all likely bullshit but I’m just having fun while I wait.

This is a good theory, but wasn't the reason AKA got delayed was because the record label was on it's last legs? Interscope are doing well...so idk. Could be for many other reasons, though.

[LanaFlowers 8,752]

Well in that case we should just crucify J.K Rowling and all fantasy or sci-fi writers since their art/creation is not rooted in their actual life experiences, then it can't be good right? Then it has no right to exist.

Ah, yes, who can forget J.K. Rowling insisting she was born a boy named Harry James Potter, attended Hogwarts, defeated Voldemort, and then transitioned to female, changed her name and wrote her autobiography to share what she went through with us Muggles.

I was more thinking maybe this time the label is getting over Lana OR that she could deliberately be doing this to parallel AKA’s release idk lol.

Ok you think Lana is a bad person for writing about sad things

Ignoring questions or not answering them is one thing... deleting questions is another.

Who knows why she did it... She wants the focus to be on Doin' Time? She is pissed we are asking her constantly about it even when she just released a new song? Or maybe there is something else she is not telling us. 

Everyone is getting impatient with her right now, though. 

As for MAC and VB getting left out of NFR, as of a couple of weeks ago, I thought it would be so stupid to do so, for the cohesion of the album and all. Now, I don't find the idea stupid: they will be 1-year old soon.

You're not impressing me with the list of people on her payroll. I'm also not falling for your association fallacy regarding the homophobia/hillsong fiasco.
