I've streamed them to death! Especially Training Season and I'm still not tired of them. I'm just not listening to them anymore, not until the album comes out. I'm not listening to Illusion either. I want to experience the album fully when it drops.
Relampago. Posted April 4 Posted April 4 The alternate cover is so ugly I am so glad she doesn't listen to you f*** and does what she thinks is best 1

Tyrion_LMG Posted April 4 Posted April 4 People complaining about absolutely Dua has done this era is insufferable just because of the commercial underperformance. Houdini is perfection, TS is beyond great and Illusion sounds terribly promising. Let's pray she grabs a hit so you stop the hate train 5 4

Sergi91 Posted April 4 Posted April 4 The alternative cover seems like it was meant to be the OG cover. It goes well with the singles artwork. 3

unclefloprry Posted April 4 Posted April 4 I thank the lord that the album will not be just a Tame Impala production with Dua's voice. Don't get me wrong, but for a pop girl it's not something that I like. At the end the production is having that little touch of Kevin Parker without losing the essence of Dua and I love it .

halcyonday Posted April 4 Posted April 4 not us actually bullying her into giving an artwork cohesive to H/TS and it's worse than the OG
hallucinate Posted April 4 Posted April 4 love the illusion snippet but i wish she didn't release it before the album nnnn 1

Seems like it but definitely wasn't meant to be the OG cover. The whole album shoot was done at once and it's pretty clear she brought in a literal shark on purpose for the cover. 2

skwonderfactory Posted April 5 Posted April 5 "Illusion" sounds… fine. I'm not going to judge based on a 30 second snippet but it'll probably be my least favorite so far. Hopefully she doesn't release anything other new songs until we get the album May 3rd. If she does, I will not be listening.
mike_int Posted April 5 Posted April 5 Alternative cover vinyl made it easy for me cause I was on a fence to cancel the "deluxe" webstore vinyl (I just didnt like the shade of blue didnt match the cover) So I ordered the curacao transparent one plus the alternative cover one, I love how completely different they look. Will be nice addition to a collection

I wish she went either with a splatter or either aquamarine/red for the deluxe because that half and half is so ugly 1

See if anything I wish it was more Tame Impala sounding. I'm by no means jumping on the hate train because I love everything we've gotten so far but I would have no clue Kevin Parker worked on those songs just from hearing them.

Maximizing a debut by keeping as many songs under wraps before release is the best strategy right now. Also both Houdini and Training Season are currently top 30 on Spotify, deviating attention from them further would only cause more harm. On 3/18/2024 at 7:15 PM, mike_int said: Even based on this she still has 3 weeks to release 3rd single cause album is out May 3rd and closest Friday to "month before album" is April 5th, even I personally would wait until 22nd or 29th of April On 3/18/2024 at 6:44 PM, Popboi. said: We shouldn't get another song until at least a week before the album, we just got Training Season On 3/18/2024 at 6:42 PM, mike_int said: Its been month since release of TS and since then we got Brit performance, album announcement, extended version, live version video and its still not enough? Illusion is coming. Looks like I got my wish.
