All the predictors who said we would get something in June or early July were sadly wrong

in their defense Ben did say "new music incoming" and "New music soon" in early June so June/July felt logical at the time

i have a suspicion there is no ldr9. it’s all hype “coming soon” my azzzzz

I agree, we got spoiled with two albums last year. I don't see another one coming this year

[Dark Angel 203,561]

i hope all of the tracks on this album are recent (2020-2022) & aren’t ultraviolence scraps (unless they’re entirely reworked) or leaked songs we already have

I adore you and this is not directed towards you at all, but I don't understand most of the fan complaints about leaked tracks making records

 

First, it's "this song deserved to be on the album, wow how could she not release this!"

Then, when it makes the album in an altered form in some way, it's "she ruined it by changing it!"

Then, when it makes the album in its exact form, it's "we've had this song forever, how lazy!"

 

I think people should pick a lane about this issue. I get it's all subjective and people are going to have different reactions to reworked tracks, and no one has to like everything she does, but I find it inconsistent sometimes

Can someone give me an example of a raw song lana did by the past? I struggle to get the meaning of the word, I feel like it can mean one thing or another depending on who we’re talking about.

Team new songs only (but also unheard older tracks acceptable) rise

Not sure who originally posted this, but I get "raw" vibes from Pretty When You Cry, Wildflower Wildfire, Cruel World, Ultraviolence, Living Legend

the thing is, I love the leaked tracks that made it to BB, but it did feel underwhelming cause we’ve had them for a while, so the whole experience was less exciting, plus almost half the album were tracks we already heard except iyldwm

I totally get that and it's super valid to feel that way! I personally feel that Cherry Blossom and Living Legend fit perfectly on the record with their maternal imagery/lyrics of that last section. I could have done without Thunder, but it is what it is.

for the record, i’m somebody who is very against the idea the idea of putting leaked tracks onto albums because of the fact that they’re already out there & people have heard them, especially in the case of blue banisters where the leaked tracks were recorded 8 years prior to the other tracks & are still at a demo stage of recording, i think it’s better if the track is reworked, though, but with the case of thunder, she didn’t re-record the vocals & from what i’ve heard (i only listened to the album version once) it was like they filtered out the previous instrumental, idk, i think it’s subjective & nuanced, i do consider adding leaked tracks without any changes a bit lazy & less enjoyable to me compared to entirely new songs, but that’s just how i feel

anna is in nyc but she’s not w lana today according to her insta story but that doesn’t mean she wasn’t with lana other days 

according to a person on twitter, lana was seen on michigan ave in chicago yesterday. i think she's visiting jack because he was there on the 4th and that's his hometown  but we know she was in NY on the 4th

That person probably just heard Yes To Heaven (Version 85) and that's it

Nah that's totally valid - I more so meant "any change" rather than "rework," because we know that she hasn't been the most motivated to do the latter lol 

 

Some people just complain both ways, they want these leaked tracks to make her albums, but still complain whichever way she goes about it
