Blue Banisters - Pre-Pre-Release Thread

[Golden Hour 5,187]

I buy physicals for all of my favorite artists and albums, but Lana is the only one I make sure to do it for in the first week typically. This will definitely impact the album's run since she's so dominant in physicals, but I don't think by too much.

It's not like we're basing our opinions off of low quality, out of context snippets. We have had some of these songs for years now, I think we're entitled to an opinion on the album because of that lol. 

those are either stripped down or concept demo so it's too soon to even think of judging the album by now lol

Also the album is way more streamble then cocc. Like, we have alot of fan favorites in here and the sound its bigger then cocc so maybe the public outside of fanbase probally gonna stream it too, just like nfr

[CinnamonGay 10,527]

The way @lustforlife was correct..

 

Omg..

Can someone please summarize?  

 

...what the hell why no physicals first week.

Incoming #100 debut. ...

[SalvaWHORE 33,938]

the "interlude instrumental" track might featured Tex & Mex barking along with the ambient nature sounding...

 

It's secretly called "Tex & Mex Summer Frolic Interlude"

I think that the label dont expect anything big anymore. But she needs to do the transition. Vinil is cute only on the debut. The only vinyl that sales years later is BTD. Stream today give more longevity to artists 

 

Not true at all-- my local record stores absolutely have to have Lana in because her records sell every time they order her. Don't get me wrong, steaming is a big deal, but vinyl records at least for her specifically, is very important too. I think at this point SHE might not care too much because she already knows she's going to end up selling the vinyls. Maybe this could be a test run to see what happens if she puts out a digital album first and then she'll have a better idea of how she'd do if she actually did a digital only album. I don't think she'd do bad at all, we should all just be sure to stream it

And the album was finished in the beggining of August so of course the pshcyal copies are not ready... 

 

But she is in trouble 

 

15 we have Coldplay 

21 we have Ed Sheran

28 we have a act that its very big on UK 

03 we have abba and posssible Adele 

 

The rest of year we have the xmas season

 

Theres no date left! 

 

 

[CinnamonGay 10,527]

So there is no way for her to get a #1 ..

 

That's so horrible.

[Vanilla Icy 29,598]

the dramatics she's still going to sell a shit ton of physical copies once they're out she just won't have a large debut

[CinnamonGay 10,527]

If her label had some sense they would release ATLEAST CDS AND CASETTES. Vinyls can wait

Yes. Lana del Rey's most acclaimed album debut #95 at billboard with total first week sales 10k ?????

Not a good headline

ITS NOT A PIANO ALBUM CALM DOWN 

 

Apologies for bombarding you with questions (but I have to say it’s my first one!).

 

If you had to choose two songs from her past discography that best summarize/encapsulate the sonority of this album, which ones would you choose?

[hyaluronicacid 640]

sorry if Im late and im supposed to know this but what time does Arcadia drop on Wednesday???

[gsf 213]

@lustforlife PLEASE SPILL ONE MORE ON THE TRACKLIST ??

[lustforlife 19,008]

Olivia Billie and Taylor get some weeks in #1 with 55k! We just need to stream HARD

[ultrabanisters 44,642]

you’ll start to enjoy the music alot more once you realise charts are just made up lists and they mean nothing (apart from labels but…)

 

[CinnamonGay 10,527]

@lustforlife pls drop some hints. 

Is never let me go there

Or loved u then and now

Good good? Under my skin
