Hayley Williams - Ego Death At A Bachelorette Party (July 28, 2025) • Page 11

I’m just rolling with the one originally posted here unless she says otherwise and trying to not let it drive me nuts haha

 

Love having a brain that’s broken in a “probably have undiagnosed ADHD” way and seeing people whose brains are broken in the opposite direction crave structure, lol.

My first listen was the order they were listed in the general “this is Hayley Williams” or whatever playlist. But, I now have a playlist of the 17 songs with shuffle turned on. Look forward to actively refusing to listen to this the same way twice.

 

per Pitchfork, it looks like Secretly is handling distribution for this, so i'm assuming there's a strong chance we'll get vinyl/physical copies down the line

 

Mirtazapine reminds me a lot of Snail Mail’s most recent album.

 

Looks like Jack didn’t produce it?

 

Correct! Which surprised me, I thought her performance with Bleachers was a PR move for sharing her new album was produced by him but I guess I was wrong lol

 

I bought all the songs on iTunes since I like to actually have the tracks in my possession in case streaming dies out and iPods come back in full swing lol

 

in the early days hayley had a handwritten "paramore is a band" shirt, then they made one for record store day last year

 

Must be what I’m thinking of, thanks!

 

First listen through this morning. And on the "original" 128kbs files like a trve fan. Only song that didn't hit was Discovery Channel. I organized it by that initial tracklist order and I think that works.

 

Hayley Williams Releases Solo Singles

press release for those curious

 

This sounds so good loslessly. Adopting this playlist's order for today's binge.

 

I didn’t hear Glum when I listened to this originally and this is an absolute banger

 

What they're using as the "cover" multiple places:

 

Press release officially refers to it as "the third batch of work released from Williams as a solo artist"

Petition to rename the thread Hayley Williams - third batch of work (July 31, 2025)" ?????

 

I love the collage of pics from each song so using that for my playlist, but this is cool too

 

I honestly hate how this has been released. I like albums. I like structure. I like to follow a story or experience it in order. The idea of making an order and listening, only for a vinyl release down the line to be a totally different order would bother me, even though it obviously shouldn’t. I don’t know why but it’s important lol.

That said, absolutely cannot wait to listen to this later.

 

I mean, assuming there is gonna be a vinyl. But they'd have to make an official tracklisting

 

Imagine there’s multiple pressings with multiple track lists

 

One for every possible configuration

 

this is just mean to put into the world

 

Only released as CD-R where each burn is a randomly selected order

 

as in other publications call this the cover or the press release more or less indicates this is the cover?

A fun idea that would be massively expensive to carry out at scale. She could probably do a very short lathe-cut run that randomized the track order, but that would have to cap out at like 100 copies / permutations because they just take so long to produce.
