Can we talk about how Alphabet City is likely a whole separate song from Alphabet Boy and it's a 2014 Cry Baby registry... the fact we grouped it based off the title is kinda dumb. Even the length is different. It is a song I fear

It lists Alphabet Boy as an alt title and K&OL as contributors

When Gold Diggin Love leaks and I can fully retire my Stan card

How is that in any way an alt title ?

[WildChild]

How tf do we have studios of Dear Porcupines, Run, I Think I'm Crazy, Birthing Addicts, and Curly Cue ???

[Veinsineon]

And the Dollhouse EP version of Intervals. A need.

 

she peaked during DH era tour I fear 

[ButterflyBones]

Omfg--

I don't know what's in those mushrooms she's been taking, but no. Just.. holy fuck, no.

[ButterflyBones]

It looks so cheap and ugly?? For $200+.. I do not understand anything about this fucking era at all anymore

Genuinely, it's one of the last songs I'm desperately wanting ATM

edit 2 - we all already knew melanie self produced Void, but did we know she self-produced Light Shower too? i just saw it in the credits of my vinyl insert

My copy is similar, the pitch also changes off and on in death, and the vinyl sounds slow. Do you also have the blood splatter variant?

Oh Lord yep that's the one I have it definitely sounds and plays like how you described, I had the colored variant and it sounded better ? but it was warped hence why I have the bloodshot

I honestly like the perfume bottles. I just wish the box was a simple ornate treasure chest

The Portals perfume release is... interesting to say the least. When we started being told a perfume was coming, I was hoping to see something similar to the Crybaby perfume that, while a bit niche, is over all an appealing blend with a simple package you can tuck into a drawer if you don't want to display it. I know smaller and more affordable bottles are meant to be coming out next spring, but it just leads me to think this release was being pushed out before it was ready and rushed to completion.

Another thing I've started to see now that people are receiving their packages is that even if they are over all happy with the product in terms of the packaging, they're disappointed with the fragrances themselves. u/blue_cookie_cutter on reddit said the fragrances only lasted for around ten minutes on their skin, and had a plasticy overtone after drying down that they compared to a c*ndom. I do hope that this is just a case of an individual receiving a poor product, possibly from winter temperatures during transit, but if this does turn out to be a consistent issue it's disappointing that this is another instance of low-quality merchandise being pushed by Melanie that probably won't be spoken on.
