Nah I disagree with that - it's giving whataboutism.

 

We should be a little more environmentally conscious when it comes to excess packaging... and this isn't just Taylor, this applies to everyone in the game.

 

Take Ellie Goulding as an example, she delayed her album last year to make sure the vinyl/album packaging was sustainably sourced and recyclable - there are ways around it.

It's not giving what aboutism. 

If for you Is not a problem coachella or the eras tour or any festival exists (their impact on enviromment is crazily bad) and for you Is not a problem they Just made 100M carbon emissions to produce the movie Dune part 2 but It's a problem a variant of a vinyl exists It's giving what about the prioritism or what about not being casually selectivism

At least until TS12 which will be the new new opus :gaycat5:

 

I think, TS12 will either be an evermore to ttpd or something experimental, messy and Loveresque. She need a little downgrade to smash everyone with TS13 later :bam:

The Albatross has the worst cover out of the 3 but the best back cover so it kinda balances out?

It's my personal favourite, I love the mysterious shot near the water. But as an original cover to be used everywhere, The Manuscript version is superior:alexz2:

Actually, The Albatross being a reference to Baudelaire makes perfect sense after reading it again. :coffee:

 

And it's also much more plausible that Baudelaire is the inspiration behind the song considering this poem talks about the way society impacts and treats artists/poets, than for the song to be about Joe based on "an albatross can stay 6 years without touching land". :suburban:

But we’re not talking about festivals? Or film productions?

 

Lets stay on topic - we’re talking about vinyl production / packaging… 

 

Should artists just not care about sustainable packaging just because… tours and festivals are a thing? I’m confused.

 

:clack:

the fact that The Albatross variant alone is going to sell more than the 2nd and 3rd best-selling albums of the year combined

I love the new cover, it might be the best one yet. And the back cover is just gorgeous :heart: I'm really tempted to buy this one.

Just out of curiosity, are there any swifties in r/swiftlyneutral?? Like this is a genuine question. I really don’t know how they find a negative thing to say about EVERYTHING this blondie does. They are so pressed abt Karma is the guy on the chiefs- like??? Don’t you have a day job ma’am?

Anyone posting on r/swiftlyneutral is very clearly in an unemployed state of mind, even if they actually have a job.

I’m expecting a dark gray border with the slightest hint of sepia for the next one :gaycat4:

 

Even though that stages of grief theory is totally made up, they’re probably on to something with the colors. Next (and last most likely?) one will be darker gray and then if there’s a RSD or Target exclusive it’ll be even darker.

Yeah the stages of grief theory felt silly to me because it's not as if there's some official color assigned to each stage, that's just some graphic someone made :deadbanana4:

She’s getting whacked by swifties on instagram. The comments are stacking up :deadbanana:

 

personally I don’t mind the variants but this bonus track thing is extremely annoying, especially since we didn’t get a 3AM vinyl. She needs to try to appear less greedy, it’s turning people off

Are we going to be completely in the dark about any kind of sales estimates until the release week? Kinda exciting tbh. Cause with Midnights and 1989TV we kinda knew well in advance that they were very likely to debut with 1m+

I’m sorry but these titles are not giving midnights 2.0…

Yes, I don't think we'll have any idea before the HDD prediction. 

 

I think the only figure we have is that the original sold 100k vinyls in its first hour. After that tracking pre-sales was no longer possible.

i really don't get the "she doesn't care about the fans anymore"

 

every major label now makes multi versions for every artist. They didn't announce any variants in the first day.

 

Instead of launching variants are just changing for the colour of the cover (like the 90% makes) she (despite already 16 songs) recorded a new song for every new variants. You know writing and recording a song it's not just something you make in 10 seconds, needs work. If somethings as always she tries to give people something more.
