Thatโs the thing. Everyone keep quoting a year old article and expect it to hold true today. That + she may be making punk rock songs today, but by the time the record will be released it could be something entirely different. Thatโs how so many people get disappointed, and I promise you that whoever is going into this with expectations of any sort will be VERY disapointed and I wont be here for the meltdowns. People are already starting meltdowns and we still know nothing about the record lol.

If you guys donโt know how to understand what you read, then I canโt help you. Youโre misinterpreting everything Iโve been trying to say. No one said anything about sacrificing quality for success. I never said any of that. And if itโs rude to try to look on the positive side of the possibility of her being signed to a major record label then it is what it is. You can have your opinion and I can have mine. Most of Bandaids is so stuck inside their little boxes of what โqualityโ and โgoodโ music is and Iโm glad the rest of the fandom isnโt like this. I donโt understand why itโs hard for some of you to wrap around your minds that a song worked on by Avril + hitmakers with respect to the sound of the rest of the record is a GOOD thing. Wanting success for your favorite artist while understanding that she doesnโt have to be a HUGE pop star like she used to be is a GOOD thing. That's Bandaids for you, they see what they want too see. You say you want her to be successful again they're right at you yelling "but success doesn't quality !!!!!111!!!" when that wasn't even your point or part of the story. And then they complain about other members being a mean and disrespectful. The joke writes itself, I guess. On topic: I hope the lead single will be a top 10 hit in the US.

It freaking sucks. You sign into an Avril Lavigne forum and the members are almost as bad as the haters who cry โTHE OLD AVRIL WUZ BETTERโ. Itโs ridiculous. Expectations vs Reality at its finest. Theyโre the same people who are making wild assumptions and will cry about how AL6 wasnโt what they thought it was going to be. Itโs a huge circle of pots calling the kettle black. .

Well in the end the album will be what it will be. We are all allowed to have an opinion, a wish and asumptions. The album will be released when it is done. The boring thing for fans. Causual listeners. And everyone occasionaly check in on news from Avril Lavigne is there rearly are any of relevance. And that there have been a grey cloud hanging over bandaids. Or more particularly the threads that cover any discussion or "news" about AL6, is more than understandable. The world arent always a happy, positive pink cloud. But nor is it a black, negative hole. We are in a face were it feels hopeless. Many had the impression that AL6 would be years away, if ever released. Then the christmas video. It gave a promise. That Avril is in the studio working. And there has been either a flow of ideas, lots of creativity, that have/is taking time. Or if it has been a draught. Stuck. A lack of creative energy. Some wanna know. Some want an explanation. Some is ok with it. Some move on. But one thing that will never work. No matter how much you want it. Is telling others to be; more positive, patient, more realistic, more greatful, less demanding. Or whatever. That will just bring us agaisnt each other. Force members away from the forum. Angry. Pissed off. Sad. Hurt. Ignorant. It is a discussion forum. And no one but Avril and her team has the right answers. So everything on here is pure speculation or wishes, before they eventuality is proven right or wrong. So remember, it is ok to agree to disagree and not diss each other.

Hun, you are just as guilty of misinterpreting what weโre saying and not understanding our points of view.

@bogo Friend. Thatโs why I said itโs pots calling the kettle black. None of us are innocent of that.

OMG you guys are the WORST. I'm done. Literally 411 pages of people telling other people off for being 'rude' and trying to assert their authority. Boring. One of the most hostile fandoms I have ever encountered. Get better updates from Twitter anyway.

I'm happy to hear she is trying to make some punk rock sounding songs... but I won't put my expectations high, since maybe they won't make it all to the album... or maybe the will discard them

I'm happy to hear she is trying to make some punk rock sounding songs... but I won't put my expectations high, since maybe they won't make it all to the album... or maybe the will discard them Her last Punk song was RNR and I PERSONALLY didn't like it. But Punk-Rock I think it was Smile which I really love. I know most of you are talking about success, quality, labels and so on. But she said back in March that she wanted to have a #1 single again, so I don't think Punk isn't successful anymore. Talking about Girlfriend she said "I remember my manager Terry McBride calling me and telling me it went to No. 1. I hope to hear those words again!" so if she wants this again I think she needs to adjust her music to today's popular sounds or create a new one. If this album has many sounds it will be probably AL5 2.0 talking about sounds not quality. I think its better to have a consistent sound in the album that many that sometimes does not make any sense to ME. But ok, I will support her no matter what she releases. The only thing I don't like about Avril is that she takes so much time to release music, she has a career of 15 years and we only have 5 albums. Many great singers have shorter careers and have more albums like Taylor, Rihanna, etc. Also that she's always talking about making music and does not release anything, I remember her talking about back to back albums, christmas album, unreleased songs, etc, and we will probably never hear that music. Just my opinion, Love

I'm staying away from all this and the speculations.... I don't blame the fans at all, this is what happens when it has been almost 1 year and all we got is a lot of miscommunication, "lies" how many times have we heard soon from the team and we got nothing in return..... basically zero basic information about the album... apart from the same kind of pictures, information over and over again We basically don't know anything about the album, has the original vision of the album been scrapped?? Who knows So far we have heard that the album will sound like many music genres, maybe it will be like AL5....

Honestly when she says punk rock I get the sense she means pop punk a la TBDT or Bad Girl.

But Punk-Rock I think it was Smile which I really love Smile has nothing to do with punk rock nor RNR. These are pop, or rather pop rock songs. Full of fake instruments. Can't be further from punk rock.
