Blue Banisters - Pre-Pre-Release Thread

[MrFameKills 11,123]

My disappointment over the delay is gone, she talked to us 

 

I love the cover and the snippet is gorgeous

She even changed her twitter profile picture, Doing Time is finally gone

I just woke up. This album cover  I might snatch one vinyl. 

[barttttender 5,247]

The cover is GORGEOUS. Effortlessly beautiful. Her best since Ultraviolence. Do we know who shot it?

 

And the upcoming single sounds GORGEOUS as well. I kinda wish she started with that and didn't realise the past 3 singles so we have more tracks to look forward to. I also think this new track sounds like the best song out of the 4. Do we know who produced it?

 

She better fucking release it soon! I'll give her one month.

Neil Krug shot the cover and according to BoZ, Drew Erickson produced the song (who has been a producer for Weyes Blood in the past)!

[COCC 29,554]

Thank you! God bless Neil Krug. No idea who Drew Erickson is, but I love that she's working with different producers on this one. It's safe to say it'll be  an album packed with paino ballads and her slowest one yet - even slower than Chemtrails. 

 

Do we know the name of the new single??? Map of La?

yellow is the color of optimism and enlightenment - and since the banisters are unpainted on the cover it'd mean she's starting fresh

Idk but this colour suits her so much!

[Chiunzhan 1,480]

I'm glad she at least acknowledged the album, hopefully it comes this year

Nah. She only has these 4 songs, maybe one more. The album will come out in one year at the earliest. 

 

Mind you - when everyone said the album will come out July 4th, I said notta chance in helll, and I was right.

While I am not an “art gay,” I think I can explain LOL! 
 

Yellow appears to be a motif for this record’s visuals. Her dress on the cover is yellow, her top and cardigan in the music video snippet are yellow, and her nails are yellow in both. The shade of yellow she chose for each is a pastel shade, which symbolizes being soft and delicate. However, and excessive amount of yellow is thought to breed aggression, anger, frustration, a sense of pent-up-ness.

 

I think these two moods - one very light and the other potentially dark - reflects exactly how she has described the last year or so to have been for her. QFTC serves as a preamble for this record, in a way - it discussed the theme of fragility and conveyed a sense of frustration in regards to that theme, so I think that’s what the yellow links to in terms of Lana’s life experiences and potentially the narrative of the album.

i wish there was no border and the banisters were blue and the font was different

blue banisters is just a metaphor though (so i'm glad they aren't blue)
