100% agree. at first i thought it was fine but nothing great, but it really grew on me and ended up definitely being in my top 5 albums of the year

it does seem really weird to "announce" an album with a commercial at the Grammys, but not disclose a title, cover art, or release date. i dont think it's having the desired effect of generating hype/buzz, but rather just confusing people a little. i wonder if something got held up unexpectedly..? My galaxybrain theory would be that they heard Taylor was going to announce and album and said something like "whoa okay, it's too late to pull the commercial, so let's just turn this into a tease so we can get more press coverage a week or so later with a more formal album announcement"

Was hoping for a sneaky "Garden of Eden" vinyl drop at the Boston show last weekend (similar to the 10yr anni version of Stick Up Kids i grabbed at the show 4 years ago) but alas, i guess i'll have to wait a bit longer

Would it be safe to assume that MOM are going to be involved with this new Bad Rabbits record? https://www.kerrang.com/bad-rabbits-announce-new-album-release-single-with-enter-shikaris-rou-reynolds

i think Matty Healy is kinda cringey and seems like a bit of an douchebag... but him saying a few offensive things in interviews is not the same as being a white supremacist. feels like this is all getting blown out of proportion, and/or being used as an excuse to take shots at Taylor which plenty of people are dying to find any reason to do. (or maybe it's all completely true and legit, idk. just seems overly harsh to jump all the way to some of the conclusions in that article.)

signed was sent as a Spotify exclusive /300 (of the /1500 variant) so that's why it didn't pop up as a normal option, but it's real and likely won't get canceled

don't really get the whole "mixtape" thing but i love these guys so easy decision to preorder

I like-but-dont-love the single. Definitely still grabbing a preorder though. (i'm part of the Patreon but haven't seen a post or link to that exclusive, hopefully i can snag one of those.)

pumped this is finally getting a repress after i (somewhat regrettably) sold my first pressing years ago. but really really hoping there's an anniversary tour like there was for Manners.

definitely excited to see what they cook up for the repress/merch/etc., after how great i think the upsides/suburbia reissue came out. moreso than any of that, keeping my fingers crossed for a fall anniversary tour.

Dad Hats are right up my alley. Those two songs are both really good. I'll definitely check out more. (Really waiting on some new Bad Rabbits though. Sounds like this year is the year. 🙏)

very excited. grabbed a pink marble

So um... i got my Revolver copy in yesterday. Kinda don't care about having a magazine i've never heard of that's numbered out of 250, but whatever. Finally have a copy of the record. Pretty cool, i guess... right guys?

ayyyy just got a shipping notification email for the Revolver order

anyone else still waiting on a signed LP to actually ship? trying to figure out if i have to email them. this still hasn't moved and it's been like 6 weeks

my Moonstone Blue signed copy updated with tracking back on 10/20, but still says "Pre-Shipment - Shipping Label Created, USPS Awaiting Item"

Wtf does “a journey through the music eras of my career” even mean?! Lol isn’t that just a normal concert... The only way it makes sense is if the setlist is in order by album… But closing a show with songs from folklore evermore midnights would be a weird move. That being said, i'll try to go to one of these. Probably looking to make a weekend out of it in a fun city because getting from downtown Boston to Gillette Stadium is absolutely unbearable.

Revolver just sent an email about the yellow /250... pushed back again, to "the end of November"

its back

dammit i wouldve caved and finally ordered the signed one but i was way too late. hopefully they pop back up at some point

got this email yesterday actually: Thank you so much for your purchase! We are sorry to inform you that due to global production delays at vinyl plants the following bundle: REVOLVER x TURNSTILE WINTER 2021 ISSUE HAND-NUMBERED SLIPCASE W/ 'GLOW ON' MUSTARD YELLOW LP - ONLY 250 AVAILABLE Vinyl release dates have been pushed back to the End of September 2022. Please continue to check the product page for updates. If these dates change again, we will reach back out and continue to update you on your orders. We hope everyone is staying healthy and well! If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to [email protected]

the product page says limited to 800 but the email i got from them says 1000. wonder which is right. not that it matters, i preordered immediately anyway

got the butterfly /1000. kinda surprised that there are two different deluxe variants out of 2500 each

way in for this. there's also a spotify-exclusive variant

This new one is a lot slower paced obviously, but i think it's a really really good song. not exactly an upbeat jam i'm throwing on playlists or anything, but they cant all be
