Cruel Summer Posted February 28 Posted February 28 7 minutes ago, State of Grace. said: Why wasn't this the album cover....... Was literally about to post this. This would have been perfect. What even is this album title and cover? Like I think more highly of Charli than just about any other artist in the world, and she’s never let me down on the music, but I’m so not following the marketing approach for this era. 1
troubledparadise Posted February 28 Posted February 28 can someone confirm if von dutch is a standalone single or if it's an album track so i can sort my scrobbles xx

She already like *kinda* did that with HIFN and this one isn't artfully or tastefully done enough to look intentional. It just looks lazy and bad. Also, in case anyone wasn't sure if she signed with Ratlantic again: 2

I lowkey love it that it's pixelated. her name/logo on her website is also pixelated. me too, it adds to the aesthetic
Alfred Bulgakov Posted February 28 Posted February 28 please be indie sleaze kinda thing and for the love of god please be a placeholder cover
Epica Posted February 28 Posted February 28 The worst shade of green on the entire color system. Still excited for the music, but I’m worried 1
Dula Peep Posted February 28 Posted February 28 She obviously didn’t slap a pixelated word brat in green because it was meant to be a placeholder… It’s the official cover

I want to believe it's a placeholder but electronic music releases rarely have pictures, they are usually text and graphics so it kinda would make sense to have that as the official cover since it's "club" music. 1

Curaga Posted February 28 Posted February 28 CRASH rollout again where the lead single is 6 months ahead of the album Imagine how tired we are Kinda love the title though, but that had better be a placeholder cover There’s a difference between being “pixely” for aesthetic (like Courier font, or another old digital font) and having straight up jpg artifacts like this has. It’s giving
americanlife Posted February 28 Posted February 28 I never pre-order vinyl for albums I haven’t heard, but I just had to pre order that picture disc
dcol Posted February 28 Posted February 28 the cover is a big slay spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, **** on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it. 1 1
Jooj Posted February 28 Posted February 28 I would've prefered XCX brat as a reference to XCX world but this title is okay i guess. Hopefully the material is good
wigglytuffer Posted February 28 Posted February 28 her logo is now a pixelated charli xcx as is the brat imagery for the album art; I feel like it might be a throwback / homage to her myspace rave scene days? She did say this is the music she always wanted to make, so maybe she's paying tribute to the unpolished internet of the 2000s (or so I am telling myself so I can begin to like it) 3 1
Blue Monday Posted February 28 Posted February 28 I'm crying laughing that we still haven't gotten Von Dutch yet
