Lasso - Pre-Pre-Release Thread

[gothphetamine 1,123]

I’m so happy that there’s a prerelease thread already 

 

Lock in girlies… this one is going to be big

[Prettiest Boy In Country Music 1,072]

how sure are we that "Prettiest girl in country music" will be on lasso?, I think it's one of my favorite Lana's songs and if it's not on the album I'm gonna ugly cry

This is the same conclusion I came to, she didn’t make herself visible. Boygenius did SNL leading up to the Grammys, Billie did countless interviews for her song + SNL, Taylor Swift was everywhere the whole year. Lana had a huge year but she didn’t campaign as hard for her awards like the other nominees did, besides a magazine cover. I hope she plays the game next year.

I hope she doesn’t play the game, be true to yourself Lana!

Honestly yeah, I think desperation for grammys diminishes the art a bit idk, and even now with her doing more interviews and magazine covers I still felt she was being authentic and just proud of her work, not desperate for a worthless popularity contest, she lets her art speak for itself and doesn't play their games I've always loved her for her honesty and originality. I can't wait for Lasso and to see where her poetry leads her next

How amazing would it be if she wins AOTY and SOTY next year and doesn’t bother to show up

updated my username to officially enter LASSO era  Ready to channel all the negative feelings I have towards the Grammys into her perfect gothic Americana album she’s about to punch us in the face with

She should drop something from this sometime this week, she has so much attention online right now

I wish we could hear something from the album already but if she plans on releasing it in September I think it's too early to start a "rollout" (specially if we get a NFR situation with snippets 1 year before the release cause it gets pushed back).

 

At least we're getting that cover next week (or at least soon) so I think she'll start the new era more towards the spring

well, but knowing Lana, she literally sang "I never really knew that what I have to decide, to play someone's game or live my own life" - and Lust for Life was the last time she questioned herself that matter, as well as the last time she plays the industry's games, which is why this was still her most mainstream era ever.

I personally don't think she - as who she is right now will the "the game", but who knows, Lana, please surprise me with unexpected!!!

I will stand behind whatever she decides to do but you can’t deny that this is something she wants. I don’t think the music will be more mainstream like LFL but she herself said this will be more simple songs.

She played it up a little bit more this time than 2020 and I wouldn’t be surprised if she does even more next time around, but obviously if she doesn’t I won’t blame her

Releasing the lead single in April (Coachella month) would be awesome. We're probably getting "Blue Skies" this month so there's no need to rush things. I think that she must be in the final stages of production; she might go back to Nashville and work with Laird again or she might keep working with Jack during these last 2-3 months, but she'll obviously be in California in April because of Coachella, so she might have the final session(s) with Jack around that time. Which kind of makes sense; it'd be a 5-month gap between April and September (assuming the album will be released then) and vinyls etc. will probably be ready on time.

I think for the first time in a long time, title track is going to encapsulate the album perfectly. 
 

BTD/UV/HM all did that

LFL/NFR kind of was an indication of the album, but not really 

COTCC/BB (and their albums as a whole) were just no indication of what we were getting 

Did you know . . . Went back to the LFL/NFR kind of an indication of the album, but as a whole the album was still a pretty broad range of sound 

 

I think Lasso is going to be a BTD/UV/HM level again 

Omg, Imagine a grand, production-heavy song with spaghetti western and Ennio morricone influences, joining the title track tier of btd/hm/uv, it would be perfect

[SalvaWHORE 34,157]

Yea, she definitely needs to release that Henry C'mon song this week as a buzz pre-single.

 

And then Lead single in mid-April

Music video in May

Album cover in end of July with second single 

Music video in Ausgust

Tracklist

Album Pre-order link announcement

The album release

 

Manifesting album has 15-18 songs, with country psychedelic, and songs 3-5 / 6 minutes.
