jhulud Posted August 22, 2019 Author Share Posted August 22, 2019 I’ll have stream it tomorrow. I preordered the deluxe from Target and that shit won’t show up til next week. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nardes Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 (edited) Good mix of sounds from pervious albums but lyrically it might just be her most solid. Also, I'm glad they took out "Hey Kids, spelling is fun!" I'm also going to add that it's pretty impressive that this technically didn't leak, as the "leak" was sourced from it being released on release day internationally. I know Target stores have had copies for over a week... it's amazing nothing made it out for an album this big.

timsimmons Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 This rip is also a transcode if you care about that type of thing. It would be nice if they released the Merch DLs early tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted August 22, 2019 Author Share Posted August 22, 2019 MusicToday kinda overdid it on the packing of the Tim McGraw 7”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Shipping Box wise? I thought it was pretty standard. Mine was just a folded cardboard insert over the 45 in a 45 mailer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted August 22, 2019 Author Share Posted August 22, 2019 I ordered two. Got each one wrapped in a folded piece of cardboard. Inside a bubble mailer. Both mailers wrapped in craft wrapping paper. All inside a decent sized box. Was pretty impressive but felt overboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmhmm Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 I Forgot You Existed is so good... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhulud Posted August 24, 2019 Author Share Posted August 24, 2019 Listened to the whole thing this morning. I love it. None of the tracks felt like fillers and kept my attention all throughout. “Paper Rings” is definitely my stand-out favorite track so far.

timsimmons Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 (edited) London Boy and False God can go. Also I forgot you existed is a terrible album opener. But the album is real good otherwise.

jhulud Posted August 24, 2019 Author Share Posted August 24, 2019 Hopefully more news will roll out on that vinyl. And it’d better be on some sort of color wax. The artwork itself calls for a lot of potential for color vinyl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marc32137 Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 After a second listen, Paper Rings is like 80% Weezer’s (If You’re Wondering If I Want You To) I Want You To. Anyone else get that vibe? Snaggle Von Swift 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snaggle Von Swift Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 “Cruel Summer” and “Paper Rings” should have been the lead up singles, this album is so damn good. nardes, RowBearToe and ShagCarpetGuy 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slinch Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Man, this album really is stellar. It's been on a daily rotation since release and I don't see that changing anytime soon. It also kind of feels like a pop compilation, so many songs have a "some other current pop artist" feel, The Man gives me a Haim vibe, I Think He Knows is a straight up CRJ song, especially that chorus, London Boy sounds so much like a Tessa Violet track, and there's also a nice mix of previous TS sounds, especially getting a Red vibe with some of the slower ones. I feel like the weakest point is ME!, more specifically that dude's part. I Forgot, The Man and Paper Rings are current faves. I think I might even like this better than CRJs Dedicated, but maybe just because there's just a bit more of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 I think its better than Dedicated, but I've barely played it since Norman Fucking Rockwell leaked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timsimmons Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 London Boy and False God, just drag it down for me. Unless Vektroid wants to remix False God, because I do love its vaporwave vibes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryantark Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 The most feels from across room distance scream, “He looks so pretty like a devil” in Cruel Summer. Hints of Neko Case in the verses of Lover. Nice album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bro Use for a Name Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 (edited) Looks like she's announcing the vinyl release of Lover on Fallon tonight: Edit: Guess not, but at least we know that it exists now.
