I haven't received any cancellation emails for any of my preorders. The only editions I was not able to preorder were the cassette or cassettes (I'm still confused over how many there will be, or will not be for that matter). As of this morning (US Eastern timezone) all of my preorders are still good.

[UltraviolenceBaby 5,013]

im actually still wondering if UO will have a special edition

[daphnedinkley 12,396]

There was no guarantee that the FNAC exclusive color was going to be cream that I know of. The only store saying the color was cream colored was the official Universal Music store (which is where I preordered my cream color edition from). We only found out the FNAC vinyl color yesterday (before then is was an undisclosed vinyl color). Maybe I'm incorrect and FNAC also offered a cream colored edition, but I never saw that. Hopefully, someone else who preordered a cream edition from FNAC will chime in to clarify things. Wish I could be more help for you

No, you’re right. We didn’t know the vinyl color until last night/this morning.

Hey!

 

Any info/speculations regarding some "single" from the album before it's release on 28?

Well she's already posted "What happened when I left you" and another poem on instagram, so I guess we already have two tracks

Okay, so I checked my orders for the Cream Vinyl through Lana's store and the cassette order from FNAC, neither appear to be cancelled and I haven't gotten an email, but I will update if I do or something changes. I sent off an email to Lana's store earlier today asking about the Cream Vinyl to check if my order was okay anyway.

[Emanueldelsun 91]

I am sure... because FNAC is a French sign... and I preorder the vinyle the day it was put on Fnac soooo I AM SURE it was cream and it was confirmed by the website

no fnac never specified the color

[BlueRibbonSparklerBaby 100]

So do y'all think the bundles are going to go up once the audiobook is released? I feel like any other time would be kind of strange

[Log Lana 911]

[Lemonade Tears 1,574]

I can’t believe how close it is!

Just imagine her voice reading us to sleep every night

I didn't even realize that we are going to hear it in a week but I kind of want to wait until I get the physical copies, especially because they will arrive shortly before my birthday. I probably won't be able to resist though.

[gatadelrey 4,575]

Omg it’s only a week away. I’m so excited!

[Log Lana 911]

[necessary sacrifice 8,864]

I can’t believe it’s only a week away!!!! I can barely contain my excitement. I have a feeling this project is gonna absolutely blow us away. I’ve been rereading some of the poems to get myself ready. It’s a shame the physical copies won’t be out til October, but I’m just so happy I’ll get to hear it at all.

 

Does anyone have plans for their first listen?

[overlookglow 288]

Does anyone have plans for their first listen?

I'm gonna stay up until midnight and wait for it to drop on Audible. For once, I don't think this will leak "early" since there are no physical copies available yet, though it may go online in some regions earlier than others.

 

My iPhone is ready for Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass lol  https://imgur.com/a/XR5RawY
