I loved all if your ideas, and I'm definitely manifesting:

"Southern Gothic" vibe/aesthetic/songtitle.

Orville Peck.

Ethel Cain.

 

Of course I'm being delusional, but who knows. Also, am I the only one who would prefer a 2024 singles releases and a 2025 album release?

 

This year, every single artist and their mothers are releasing music, so it's a little too crowded. I wouldn't want "Lasso" to gwt lost in the shuffle...

Yeah, I see what you mean. Cowboy Carter, BRAT, Hit Me Hard And Soft… female artists have been popping off lately. But if it is southern gothic, I realllyy want an October release - it would be so perfect. It’s also my birthday month, so it would be a great birthday gift from Lana

In my heart I still hold a morsel of hope that something could happen this Friday, and if nothing, then I will resign myself to nothing happening this year. 

I’m not really holding on to hope for Friday, but there’s still a long way to go before saying it’s not coming this year, hun

This!

 

we didn’t get Arcadia until September and the album came in October (which I think is a perfect rollout amount of time) and before Arcadia came out it was mostly crickets (I say mostly because we did get the album cover July 4th and “album later later single soonish” but we know from BOZ that that announcement wasn’t planned)

I know people generally associate country with summer, but southern gothic is more of a fall vibe imo. It would be perf for the start of the season 

[NikoGo 60,597]

Henry come on sounds like such a ‘sitting by the campfire strumming guitar in late fall’ song, and Southern Gothic makes me think of winter in the south, where it’s still warm, but the days are short

it would be great to release southern gothic country album in the end of October. perfect for Halloween and start of Scorpio Sun season

I'm from Florida, and to me, Southern Gothic is humid swampy nights spent in old wooden houses with gross carpeting and animal heads all over the walls with the only thing to cool you off being a half-broken fan, and if you wanna go to the bathroom, you have to use the one in the RV camper outside because it's the only one that works

Heavy on Raise Me Up. It fits southern gothic soo well. 

 

“It's the voodoo Mississippi south
Sixty-nine million stars
Birds are flyin' out of my mouth
Spirits creepin' in my yard

Oh, my head, it's tiltin' back
Something dancin' me around
Puttin' crystals on my neck

Liftin' my feet off the ground, the ground”

 

like come on

Would you rather have

 

Lasso in September with a surprise release but there are 2 Nikki Lane collabs where Nikki sings most of the songs

 

or LDRX in late 2025, might be Lasso or not but guaranteed that there is no Nikki or Lane

 

It’s a survey for my PhD dissertation so I appreciate your input

[Rorman Nockwell 56,493]

I don't want it to be called Lasso

I want it to be called Simone Biles is the GOAT

And I want the vinyl to be mauve

I want the cover to be lenticular

I'll let you know what else I want when I want 

[Rorman Nockwell 56,493]

Didn't she do a cover of House of the Rising Sun?

That'll probably be on Simone Biles is the GOAT (formerly Lasso)

I mean we lost 2 tunnel tracks to interludes, 3 bb tracks to songs we already heard, two nikki collabs won’t hurt, at least we know it’s still coming next month
