Julia Fox Posted Wednesday at 08:40 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 08:40 PM (edited) Name an album that was a total commercial bomb or was bad quality-wise but had incredible visuals (artwork, MV's, etc) from a pop girl. Hope you don't come with these indie girls because they obviously are very artsy and are very used to have good visuals in general like Weyes Blood and Caroline. For example, Kylie Minogue "Impossible Princess" was a commercial bomb and wasn't that well received by critics at least at its time of release -besides being one of my faves Kylie albums-, but the visuals were incredibly stunning what are other examples?

MidnightsAtPeace Posted Wednesday at 09:17 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 09:17 PM (edited) It was her first top 10 entry and her most acclaimed work at the time, but it wasn't as successful as her pervious albums. STUNNING visuals that pay justice to the amazing album that it is Edited Wednesday at 09:19 PM by MidnightsAtPeace 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a commercial underperformance and a flop, even more considering she had a movie that led the project to a disastrous bomb that left the label with such negative numbers. But yeah it was an incredible album with ambitious visuals and we love it 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If her former label wanted to make more money from the film, they should have promoted it more and not streamed it for only 1 night in select IMAX cinemas.
