Norman Fucking Rockwell - Pre-Release Thread

[xxmissdaytonaxx 30,079]

Like this if u won't listen to the any new song she will put out before the album release

i usually am very quick to listen to her new songs but i really want to try and hold off on listening to any new singles now so i can be surprised during the release. tho, if we get song samples on iTunes, i’ll most likely listen to those.

Doin Time, LOL, shes punishing us all for being obese.

 

Also, BAR, wow, come through queen!

 

Am i the only person whos never heard bartender?

[Platinum Greenwich 13,862]

i just wish LA on fire in the background would've been done in acrylic too, like the clouds

 

i see what she was going for with the random pop art but it doesn't really work, either 

[Lanalouis1 2,511]

also the fact that Papa Rick is tagged is just probably because he will have writing credits on BAR and maybe Bartender

I adore the album cover. The more I look at it, the more I think it could've not been better. Even the picture that we got last September and that I absolutely loved is nothing compared to the actual cover. I really don't understand how some of you call it her worst album cover ever. It's different for once, she's not just standing stupidly with a car behind her, she's inviting us on her boat, the reference to MAC's lyrics is brillant, the painting of the sky is genius too, it's such a subtile reference to NR the painter.

 

Totally agreed. I was enamored with the first promotional image, but this IS Norman Fucking Rockwell, while that was just a taste of the colors.

Finally an INTELECTUAL

The visible painting strokes, her pose, her facial expression, California on fire, the American flag. The more that I look at it, the more I love it. It has movement and has a story going on. It's really going to vibe well with the songs.

The Norman Fucking Rockwell hit single 'Doin' Time' is now the NUMBER ONE SONG on Triple A Radio

 

A day!

What if the guy on the cover is part of the upcoming double video somehow? Like, I'm expecting some type of narrative on this upcoming video. I believe we have no idea of when the cover was actually shot so it could be part of the video shot somehow too?

THAT ALBUM COVER
AND WE'RE GETTING BAR?! 

[WilshireBoulevard 5,421]

The back of the cover (the one with the tracklist) the guy looks like a dark-haired leo dicaprio and i'm here for it omg

Chuck only tagged Jack and Laura for production so I guess BAR has been reworked by him.. idk what Zach Dawes is doing though

From her Elle UK June 2017 Interview:

Lana is enjoying being part of a music scene in LA where her friends include photographer Emma Tillman (also the wife ofsinger-songwriter Father John Misty), Zach Dawes, who has played bass with the British super-group The Last Shadow Puppets, and musicians Jonathan Wilson and Cam Avery. They play music together, which is not something she's done with friends before.

Zach Dawes' involvement has me excited. From Wikipedia:

 

Dawes spent many years assisting and playing bass for American record producer T Bone Burnett. He played bass on The Hunger Games soundtrack, True Detective, Nashville (season 1), A Place at the Table, Lisa Marie Presley's Storm and Grace, The Secret Sisters, Inside Llewyn Davis and The New Basement Tapes.

 

Someone else is overseeing the Catching Fire soundtrack, but T-Bone Burnett did the first one. I've previously expressed my desire for Lana to work with him on my covers show podcast. I'd love it if this were true and they brought T-Bone back to do this one.

As for someone new she should work with, T Bone Burnett:

 

 

 

I wish she'd just work with T Bone Burnett, but Zach Dawes might be the next best thing.
