i feel like lana’s team wouldn’t care enough to make a worldwide thursday night single release, so i think this week is officially off the table unless something comes out within the next two hours

 

well… A&W next week then 

or the week after that

or the week after that

or the week after that

or the week after that

or the week after that

or the week after that

 

 

we're guaranteed to get it that very last 'or the week after that' because it's album release week

I'm very late but

 

Spoiler

Let the light in sounding like Religion... that's my favorite LDR song hands down. I think Kintsugi probably meant that the instrumental/nostalgic vibes reminded him of it, but I wonder if the lyrics will take us to church or be sensual, or maybe both

Lana: *breathes*

I literally get chills when the breath sound appears. To me, it sounds like she’s trying to calm herself down, and I like that the breath almost grows to a breeze…like one passing through a tunnel

 

Then again, maybe she just liked the cool windy sound

Taco Truck not having drums surprised me (particularly with it having the VB sample), but I’m excited nonetheless!

 

It’s tough to tell whether it will be toned down or not since production credits don’t say a ton about the mixing/how emphasized the instrumental is, but I guess we’ll find out soon

I wonder if drums aren’t credited because they are just a part of the sample. I have a strong feeling that is actually what the case is.

Evanescence did that for their album back in 2020 and it ruined the experience of listening to the album on release. Like what's the point of an album if you only have like 3-4 new songs left. 

Hearing the whole album without knowing what to expect is unmatched I guess. I guess I just can't wait.

As some other people have said , another single would be ok.

 

And about The Bitter Truth , what ruined it was the mixing and not following this vibe

I made an error—it actually has drums!!!

Drums are credited on Taco Truck x VB

When Lana serves another "my pu**y tastes like pepsi cola" line on A&W THEN WHAT?!

Judging by the reliable insider's comments, this album sounds like her 'Sargent Peppers' or 'Hissing of Summer Lawns,' or the first U2 album when they broke away completely from their somber, brooding sound and decided to have fun and lighten up a little. So I'm expecting something startling, completely fresh, and unprecedented in her catalog. Though the single certainly did not suggest that, at least to me. 

this is also her first album without production/lyrics by rick nowels so it really is a fresh slate, seems like she’s breaking away from typical archetypes in her lyrics and experimenting with her sound more.

I think the last time she properly worked with Rick was L4L. 

And in my opinion she need to work with Rick Again.

WHAT IF LANA just made AMERICAN WHORE titled A&W because she is gonna reference COLA?

rick gave lana her “signature/classic lana” sound, maybe she wanted a change from that? in any case i hope they work together again at some point because they’re really a match made in heaven. i feel like he makes her lyrics more concise and solid, plus he gave us her magnum opus honeymoon. i really miss his touches in lana’s music

[WhitehotOcean 1,073]

imagine another surprise release like the title track one, I’m almost sure that A&W will do better numbers than it and title track ones were already really good

If nothing happens this week I’m checking out until the release because all of the delusions this week were exhausting

Rick Nowels lives in a retirement home now. His family reached out to me to say that he was showing early signs of dementia.
