sadness is a butterfly 5,795 Posted March 11, 2023 5 minutes ago, Salem said: I have made my judgements thus far under the understanding that these are snippets, and do intend to listen to the album through at least once to form final opinions, but snippets certainly do give you enough to get a feel for a project and can build or damage your level of hype. That said: I am still holding out hope for at least some old content to make the cut, since this new content sounds almost unfinished in the way there's vocal effects yet not vocal mastering, and there seems to be little to no mixing in that she is often hard to hear and understand. I agree, these snippets don’t seem quite finished. Even the HQ versions sound pretty low quality through headphones. Lower quality than the leaks we have of MM3 honestly, and much lower quality than streaming. Even the videos from her Instagram and TikTok seem to be that way. In a way I hate this snippet roll out. It’s almost as hard to make judgments as the nightmare of snippets leaked for DYKTTATUOB. Every song tells a story on its own, and are hard to judge sometimes outside of a whole album, particularly in Melanie’s case, let alone a snippet of a song with no context. I don’t know why she’s doing it this way, particularly with how concept and album focused she is in telling a story. 5 Quote It's a beautiful life, remember that too, for me.

The Siren 30,521 Posted March 11, 2023 (edited) even though ive already made and ordered a cd of my version of the mm3 leaks, im rearranging the leaks again i love the idea of Fairy Dance being the opener, i like the idea that Faerie Soiree fades in from FD but idk if i like FS being as part of the opening (ive edited the two in audacity to be crossfaded into each other; but kept them as separate tracks) Faerie Dance (intro) Faerie Soiree Sirens Tunnel Vision Dragon's Blood Corpse Leeches Void Garden Emerald Needle & Thread Inconsistent Flame Fingers Crossed Labyrinth Not Dead, Just Expired Synchronicities Death Edited March 11, 2023 by The Siren 1 Quote Last.FM | Discogs | JOYRIDE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SalvaWHORE 34,006 Posted March 11, 2023 atp, i really believes Crybaby is her only good album & thats just so sad & depressing to think about. I know how far this woman can go but im not feeling good about this project. When you dont even hear that 'signature' within the artist themselves in a genre-switch type of album, its not really a good sign, to change & develop your craft is so close to lost yourself to something else and im afraid she fell into that pitfall. And dont let me start with her songwriting, where did her Crybaby pen go? These snipets really tell me what I need to know, if they cant keep me excited then how? Spoiler but im ready to be proven wrong, this is her third album, she better do something to redeem after that K-12 thing 8 Quote @WHORE OF TROPICO ⇨ @SALVAWHORE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Psychedelic Pussy 30,108 Posted March 11, 2023 don’t listen to Melanie but seeing y’all’s comments about artists falling off @ their third album made me think about how crazy it is that Lana is literally on her 10th and still going so strong ?!? Like her third album was literally UV which is a masterpiece. Y’all’s faves could never…. Sorry bout it! I may listen to felony Martinez if she drops the infantilisation thing 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SarcasticBeauty 1,540 Posted March 11, 2023 Death-It's okay. don't like the chorus Void-love it I can't wait for the full Spider Web-....no Battle of Larynx-love it Evil-love it. I'm not super picky when it comes to Ms. Martinez. The only thing she released that I didn't really like was that Ep. I loved the albums. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I may listen to felony Martinez if she drops the infantilisation thing Melanie fell off at her second album but still hopeful for something better. But you’re right, it’s rare to find artists who keep improving their craft. I’ll forgive a sophomore slump, but another K-12, I’ll be cutting the string like she talked about in Needle and Thread, I fear. 4 Quote It's a beautiful life, remember that too, for me.

missanthrophocene 1,672 Posted March 11, 2023 I don't think I will ever recover if Sirens don't make the album, this just is unacceptable, it even fits the rock image she's going for I CAN'T ACCEPT HER SAMPLING THE SONG FOR 30 SECONDS TO USE IT AS A INTRO TO ANOTHER COMPLETELY DIFFERENT SONG THAT DON'T EVEN MATCH SONICALLY(tv or void, if that web finder thing is right) this just ain't it shes sick it was going to be her magnum opus the critics would eat it up the people deserves to hear it mixed mastered releasef officialy 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No sign of a single diaper / baby bottle. 💀 I think we’ve finally been saved from that with this album 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
