Her team was probably afraid to do a 180 in aesthetics and receive a backlash from the fanbase

Now that I think about it, it's actually refreshing to have an artist continue with the same aesthetics instead of reinventing with each era ironically. I am curious how closely her sound will continue in the same realm. Hmmm  I'm also interested to see if she will stick with this like Adele and Ed Sheeran, or if she'll eventually break away into something else.

Not every artist is a Madonna, loads of artists used to evolve slowly. A rebrand will feel so more impactful later on.

oop just saw this post lol @ us plugging into the same matrix mind  

 

totally AGREED (of course ). I think her sound and aesthetic is strong and unique enough to sustain itself, her brand fills a niche that people would want to come back to. I alrREDy want another colour for her 3rd album though ngl  three purples in a row is giving The Barney & Friends 'I LOVE YOU!' Movie: The 2nd Sequel teas. I think red would be a HOT colour for her WHOO

I like the subtle change of her having black nail polish on both covers, but it’s chipped and messy on the GUTS cover. 

oooooh I love love LOVE details like this  her next album cover should serve Wolverine, her nails becoming an iconic part of her career like Ariana's ponytail

She didn’t have to cut her hair off or dye it blonde, but like, another plain purple background?  After two years? Puzzling.

I never preorder before hearing at LEAST the first single to make sure I like it, but it’s Olivia. Should I snag a preorder while I can? 😭

100%

Artists especially female ones are too afraid nowadays to sustain a signature look/aesthetic and I do get why given the way this industry treats them but a signature look/aesthetic can do SO much for an artist that wants to build their own lore long term. MJ's glove, the Ariana ponytail, Taylor's red lipstick, Katy and the candy outfits and blue hair, Miley and the tongue, Britney and crop tops. Lana and that font. Consistency is underrated. It's nice that there's already specific things that we can associate Olivia with.

Oh she's taking it and ATRL is not able to cope 

This only means she's going to pull huge numbers

This needs to be the upbeat angsty pop/rock album I wanted Sour to be cause I like her but I hated most of the album. 

[SpaceOddity]

I like the cover as it is but

this would've been even better.

oof Spill Your Guts sounds so sexy  nnnnnnnn   it gives me a certain show on Showtime but I won't say which one in case some girlies wanna go into it blind, but ifykyk

I would love it if that was still a track on the album, it's a title too good to waste.

I like that cute little thing artists do where a track on the album is basically the title track with subtle changes in the title (like Monster on The Fame Monster or Midnight Rain on Midnights). idk why but it's oddly satisfying to me

love this idea! Something in the same realm, but a different expression of it. There might be better examples but something like what Bjork did with Homogenic and Vespertine, where Homogenic is the more bombastic and warm one whereas Vespertine is the more withdrawn and cold one but the two albums kinda go together as companions.

 

I don't mind if GUTS has the same colour as SOUR but I would like a different shade, and I have hope that it will be.

This is my policy too, but I am ready to hit the pre-order button on Friday.

Finally! I know it's purple again but that was kinda obvious based on the single cover, she looks great and it's a nice cover.

 the music will be good anyway, that's all that matters 

[KOMH]

 

Let me guess, the album will have 11 tracks and will be under an hour long. Groundbreaking.

She’s going for screamo

Did this announcement make any noise?  I didn’t even see it trend on Twitter.
