It’s honesty shocking to go from Rainbow to High road. Massive downgrade in quality. I thought Kesha finally found her way but i can’t even finish HR. I can say it has such amazing stand out tracks but it’s bury under generic non sense & desperation. It honesty feels like she was trying to please her cannibal stans & her Rainbow stans in the same album. That can’t work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonnonA Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 2 hours ago, CroNich said: It doesn’t didn’t come across like an acoustic/stripped back album. Some songs have parts that are really stripped back mixed with parts that are more produced. I know you only heard the songs once, but could you tell if the vocals on the other songs are the same “lo-fi” quality as ETA/ Fine Line or do they sound more polished?

No definitely not. I mean tbh I consider the vocals on fine line good quality they’re just more spoken word but I promise you will be getting some clean crisp stellar vocals throughout the album that aren’t just spoken word. Some of the vocal layering throughout the songs gave me chills. Like I said it’s crazy to think this is the same artist that released high road. But I would say eta has the most shaky mixing on the album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CroNich Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 But also I didn’t listen to the album with headphones so can’t say for certain but even through the speaker you could tell eta was the weakest mastering wise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The singles numbers on all platforms are abysmal, Raising Hell did some cute numbers at least, just based on that I really don't expect the album to hit top 40. But like I said, that's okay, she's clearly not aiming for commercial success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she wanted a chance at charting she would’ve released literally any other song on the album. I think eta/fine like were released to demonstrate this album is not your typical pop album. Like I’ve said before there are multiple songs on the album y’all haven’t heard that could be hits if lightning was to strike at the right time.

Kevin Parker Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Weird comparison, but Gag Order will probably serve Norman ******* Rockwell! The quality, acclaim and word of mouth will make it one of her most successful albums Not necessarily a first-week thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearman Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 I feel like they're saving all the promo for release week so they maximise the impact. She's clearly been shooting a lot of content that we still haven't seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

josesuxx Posted May 11, 2023 Author Share Posted May 11, 2023 I'm just trying not to get my hopes up about the commercial performance! I already know this will be my favorite album by her and that's all I care about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Witchpop Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 I'm not worried about chart performance because I'd rather have an album that feels raw & genuine and something that Kesha WANTS us to hear, then have something she's "forced" to make and doesn't give a **** about behind the scenes. The descriptions of the songs from the listening parties have me so hyped. Only a week now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole era was like a hot-air balloon that was gradually losing so much steam that it had hit rock bottom by the time the album finally got released (after multiple delays) because no one was even willing to look forward to the release of an album that had absolutely nothing going for it, mixed reception and a way too long and uneventful rollout given the limited impact the era had.

Mattyboy Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Fine Line & Eat the Acid are definitely growers. I can’t say I want old Ke$ha either because I adored Rainbow A new Kesha album next week though guys!!

collin Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Prepare for this album to miss the Top 10 tbh, I am pretty sure High Road had tour ticket bundles back when that was a thing which propped it up quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nashe Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 yeah I think top 40 is more realistic. only fans really know about the album coming out and the fanbase is pretty small hoping for the best though she deserves EVERYTHING! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. As if the Ke$ha feature was a selling point to anyone but a limited amount of stans. The initial trailer built some hype but the era was DOA once Raising Hell dropped. 36 minutes ago, collin said: I sort of feel like the gays and girls still pay attention to her enough for it to be Top 20. We’ll see! Yeah, I feel like the gays and girls always check for a release from her. The reception on music twitter to ETA (while slow) has been overwhelmingly positive.
