Memo 176 Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 i was not a fan when Lungs came out. i was a casual fan up until WTWGM, which really made me interested, and then i saw they had an album coming out, so i started paying more attention. and then SIO came out, and i was blown away and i kept updated everyday until Ceremonials came out...after which, I was obsessed. so album 3 will be first release that i have been a humongous fan. i am SO excited. as for the sound, i want it to be something different from the first two. Ceremonials is incredible, but she can't (and isn't going to) repeat it. it'll be something different. "upbeat" and "happy" are the only two descriptions we have oh, and "fire" about WKOM. whatever that means :P i am beyond excited. the wait will kill me, but i'm pretty sure even though it was 3.5 years, they clearly took their time to make an immaculate record. hope i'm right in assuming that. just hope there are no basic songs. like, they clearely took their time with every song on the first two albums: a billion vocal takes/layers, harmonies, diverse, interesting music behind the vocals, great lyrics. every single song. hope it's the same case on the 3rd They put a lot of effort on both Lungs and Ceremonials, and besides that Flo said that after Ceremonials success the label wasn't pressuring them so she had more free time. I'm highly sure it won't feel rushed and I doubt Flo can do basic, even Sweet Nothing is marvelous, just by the lyrics and the live acoustics she did. I'm excited to hear the new sound too, I think everything points to a mix of organic and electronic sounds, she worked with a hip hop producer I think last year. Really can't wait for this Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMTT 160 Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 i hope her work with Kid Harpoon and SBTRKT is on the album. they're both folksy sort of. i hope whatever hip hop influenc eon the album is EXTREMELY minimal, i am NOT here for that. i'm sure it also won't be solely produced by one person again like Ceremonials was. 3 seems more eclectic. but yeah, i don't think she'd ever have basic music backing. just hope the layered vocals and harmonies remain...that is a MUST.

True true, hope Isa co-produces again this time too because Cosmic Love, I'm Not Calling You A Liar, Breath Of Life :nooo: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same. I remember reading her interview about her creative process and inspirations for Ceremonials, it was basically what converted me to a full stan and then listening to the album gave me an almost spiritual experience I haven't had with most albums It's why I'll always prefer it over Lungs(even tho people think the opposite) and probably why I'm not sure she'll ever top it for me :giveup: Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(btw, would you link me to that interview? :) ) whereas Lungs is more about her relations with the external world, Ceremonials is a more internal, self-reflective album than anything. it's spiritual, and Ceremonials is the perfect title for it. sonically, it makes sense, because each song is like that, but also thematically. it's not a religious album, but it is definitely spiritual. like she's said, songs like SIO, NLNL, SD, and LMB are very much a musical exorcism of all your demons. as cheesy as that sounds, and as dark as the album is, it's also very empowering. every song is so meaningful and personal. i hate when people say she doesn't write personal lyrics. even though they're filled with metaphors and imagery, you can tell it's very deep and personal. Ceremonials tops Lungs for me, but both are two of my favorite albums and have a special place in my heart. ready for the third book in flo's bible though :P Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryhanna 3,507 Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Guys Flo is in LA filming YET ANOTHER music video Some say this one is in the style of Lana's Tropicohttp://instagram.com/p/yYfHeJyYKG/ Flo what r u doing omgWhat if she pulls an iamamiwhoami/Beyoncé and makes vids for every song omg Wouldn't shock me, given that Flo hasn't said anything but the album is seemingly completed or near completion, and all these shoots taking place. I actually think it's quite a possibility. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
