i think it’s not her best song ever, which is kinda meh since it’s a single with a music video but i like the song and i don’t think it’s bad. i love the melodies and the lyrics, i love the vocals aswell. it’s just very short and it doesn’t seem to fit that much with the devil. but i like it… except the trap beat haha

 

I agree with you, I like the song better than The Devil but none of them is making me feel more super excited about the album. 

 

So far it has been a let down, but I know the album will have amazing songs that I will love.

we need the album

[Glitter Boy 16,558]

I kinda liked Skinnydipped but it's... not my cup of tea I guess. This, however, feels like a grower, opposite to The Devil, honestly. The piano was great, though. I don't like her vocals in the second verse  I'm beginning to worry about the album

Those songs sound like SZA? Wow never thought about it. 

 

Maybe Better but not Contaminated 

I guess i just associate banks' strained vocals with sza (specifically i was thinking of 20 something)

but anyway ive already listened to skinnydipped more than the devil, so its doing what it should do

[Ceremonials 2,894]

do insiders have anything about the album ? 

 

idk i’m kinda nervous because skinnydipped is a mess, she's such a good writer normally. like it's completely thrown me off.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks so about skinnydipped. I was keen at first but I haven't relistened more than 3 times.

Hopefully skinnydipped is just another "Look What You're Doing To Me" situation and the rest of the album is killer. 

[EXODUS 9,914]

So far this album has been a let down, I hope the upcoming songs are better 

[Coney Island King 26,002]

So is there an album? This whole roll out is such a non-event….

[ConstableReggie 509]

Still no news… she’s sick
 

you know all those Twitter memes about like “you don’t get to decide when you move onto the next stage of your life, it’s when Lorde drops an album”, this is literally me but with Banks. The Altar and III releases both coincided with big turning-point moments in my life

 

I really hope we get an announcement soon, I need a new Banks album in my life to heal me

Supposedly she will release something before the year ends 

 

But I highly doubt it.

eh, i could see the week after xmas since she's independent and doesn't have to follow the rules 

 

BUT i'm concerned about the 'something' more. If it's a painfully short track or visual, i'd rather wait until we finally have an album announcement. 

 

I have a *different* autoimmune disease so i get her taking her time, sometimes it's impossible to function, i'm just very much an album consumer ( buy physicals always ) and wish she would wait until the project was finished to start dropping things. Like are skinnydipped and the devil droplet singles or on the aforementioned album ??

They feel like droplets 

 

Last album cycle all the singles felt like leading to something, this time doesn't feel like that

Yeah, most likely. Also, in previous album cycles she release the singles more close to each other. This time it was these two in the year, and no album announcement followed them, nor a third single, so I think the era hasn't properly started yet. There's still a chance these two make it to the album as bonus tracks or something.

Wait what? Where did she announce it? Album title? Pre-order? Next single upcoming? Lol so many questions  

Many of these songs sound very interesting though, Misunderstood, Meteorite, Dead End, Burn, By the Sea, Unleavable and I Still Love You being my favourites  

I'm saving hopes for the singles to sound better within the album than on their own.

Tracklist was shared by someone very reliable on ATRL. He doesn’t know the release date or album name tho (BlackoutZone shared the tentative date but he isn’t sure)

I agree, I was disappointed by the two singles but I have still big hopes on this new album as I adore the other three she has released.
