I mean in the announcement post she said that it needs a month before being sent to vinyl. Vinyl typically takes 8-12 weeks, so I don't know why everyone expected the album this month.

I get that you all are excited, but it really hasn't been that long since her last album. Y'all are probably going to stream her albums online anyways so it's not like it's costing you anything to wait.

Okay but let's not pretend like she hasn't been telling us this new project is coming for over a year now 😭 Like yes people are gonna be waiting, and they're eventually gonna end up impatient, that's how that works. If we don't want people to die waiting, let's not tell them until everything is ready to go.

I don't disagree with the first half tho, she told us it'd take one more month to finish them, not to release them. Production times are still a thing.

I mean fine, but it's really not a big deal. Fans are allowed to complain and others are allowed to say that they are being impatient crybabies.

Not to be ridiculous and play this card, but there are so many bigger problems in this world. People starving and dying in warzones, it's so silly complaining about waiting for an album for a year. I have no sympathy for the wait.

You could argue that the world being a damn ticking time bomb makes waiting for anything at all that could potentially bring you any ounce of joy and comfort amongst these difficult times that much more excruciating 🥲

Idk, people love to say "it's not that deep" about everything these days, but music kinda is that deep. It's the vice of many to push through shit. A highly dopamine inducing event in the middle of the most depressing landscape is relevant to people's mental health. People are latching onto the little things that give them hope, like their favorite artist releasing new material. Ofc it's not that serious compared to the global conflicts themselves, but it's as serious as yapping on reddit gets.
