Blue Banisters - Pre-Pre-Release Thread

[May 13,311]

I know this is completely out of left field but I’m tipsy and listening to this and thinking about how fucking good Lana would sound covering it:

it’s exactly the type of shouty but laid back rock I’d love from this album

[Super Movie 51,644]

a whole record of songs in the same vein as what lana described dealer to be would be a literal dream

It will either be a worthy addition to her great discography, or her worst project yet

I don’t think she’s capable of making a bad album.

maybe she has because it's done already  As someone pointed out, she probably wouldn't announce a date that's literally two months away if she weren't sure. But on the other hand, she and delays do have history. And I also keep wondering why she said to Annie Mac she didn't have "four songs" ready for the next record. I have a hard time believing she made an entire album within the last two months.

It could be that she didn’t have four songs leftover from COCC/intended for COCC that she saved, but rather started new and fresh in the studio going in a different direction with new songs as early as whenever her and Jack completed COCC. So in a way, she could have had more than four songs for RCS at that time but that wasn’t Annie’s question I don’t think—it was framed more as are there leftovers from the COCC sessions and Lana answered no, not really. IT GIVES ME HOPE FOR A BRAND NEW SOUND!

Well-planned queen was setting herself up for the big surprise announcement

Right can we stop doubting her at this point

 

However I do think this will be her most different album yet, especially if it was all written during an angry and defensive point in her life. She doesn’t have many songs with those emotions I don’t think - even UVs more passionate songs were more about fallout from relationships and such which is different imo

So do we think that this album will be released in 2021? 

[honeybadger 40,619]

imagine something like smarty  NOBODY NOBODY NOBODY WHO HAS A FaCE LIKE SMARTY DOES??????? NOBODYYYY

 

the kind up upbeat instrumentals with bitter, sarcastic lyrics and vocals that would be perfect for an album called rock candy sweet

[necessary sacrifice 8,865]

Since we know she was working on traditional folk & country covers recently, do we think the old country folk song Big Rock Candy Mountain could’ve influenced this new album sonically/thematically at all?

Yes. June 1, one week before my birthday

You’re not alone ! I’ve always wanted her to cover this 

[Future Jazz 9,189]

one think that makes me sad is that she's probably going to break the tradition of having one LFL outtake on her new album  I mean I'm glad she's moving on but having Yosemite on Chemtrails was delightful not only because of how good the song is but also because it's a bit heartbreaking to discover a song that dates back to 2015-2016 for the first time, through official ways. I love the soothed, Honeymoon-inspired, stripped-down vibes she used to have in 2016 before all the baddie/QFTC mess, I love the richness of Rick's production. So although LFL is not a career highlight, it's always a bit heartbreaking, in a good way, to get material from that very special era.

 

OR we're getting Wild One on RCS because its title totally fits the theme omg team delulu keeps on winning

I just really hope June 1 doesn't become another "September 5"

If June 1 she does release RCS, she missed another great opportunity for a surprise release by telling us about it 

[Gothicula 1,148]

with chemtrails she def learned her lesson about album deadlines and vinyl delays and all of that, i don't think she ever wants to delay something unless it's necessary maybe it's coming yall

I don’t believe that date. We are lucky if a single from it drops this summer.

it does seem, to me at least, that she was truly sorry and disappointed COCC was delayed 6 months, so i hope hope hope itll actually come out in June

Three weird album rollouts convinced me she never learns from her past mistakes lol 

the only thing preserving all my love for her is the constancy in her music.

maybe she's going to not release any single though? I could picture that. she could just randomly drop the album. it doesn't seem to be made to serve commercial purposes.
