"I'm doing some rock songs.. so... everybody is happy" Is it just me or does this sound, like her label wanted her to do some "hit maker songs" again ._. Pop-rock songs as a mainstream thing are dead. If the label wanted her to release a hit song, they would make her work with Max Martin or something like that, not release rock songs.

I agree, if the label wanted hit singles they would have called Jack Antonoff or someone who's in right now. Avril wants those rock songs.

"I'm doing some rock songs.. so... everybody is happy" Is it just me or does this sound, like her label wanted her to do some "hit maker songs" again ._. I'm sure she meant her fans, not her label; probably meant some "upbeat" songs to balance things out, which is ok if she doesn't change the concept of the album in general. Yes, she probably made some songs that a little more catchy and commercial, since she's working with JR Rotem which a known producer that has helped to make some top-10 songs last 10 years or so. The fact that she keeps saying "rock" is making me excited, but she better deliver with songs that are, at least, musically similar to UMS and TBDT (or those from LG). Here's the FB live posted on Youtube by sliperslip : In general, I think she did a GREAT job, and surpassed my expectations. I didn't think she wasn't going to talk about her album that much, more about ALF and other "miscellaneous" stuff. But she did quite the opposite, and I'm extremely glad that she did. She didn't say the album is going to be released next year, but at this point we all knew about it and it was kind of pointless (she should've said a few months ago). She explained very well how the album is going to be and why all the "delays" happened. And the description of the album is what I expected from: deep, emotional, meaningful, mature; I think it's time to deliver an AC album and leave the MFP (as she said while show TBDT vinyl ) behind FOR GOOD. She seemed to be a bit "clueless" since it was the first time she does that, but I prefer this over a set of pre-chosen questions/topics; I hope she makes more like this in the future, since it's simple to do and she can engage with fan easily. But so far great job Avril, keep it up!

So she reached out to producers but they didn't have time back then. Does that mean that they have time now or is Rotem producing the whole album?

I checked Rotam on wikipedia and I'm not THAT impressed by him tbh. I mean he produced a couple of songs before I like, but the rest is "whatever" category for me. I love me some meaningful, rock-ish, dark vibe, but I really hope there will be some great, upbeat tune also. Duh, I became excited again. Damn 2018, better be hurry. Also, can someone light me up what is "mixing" mean? Or what is probably the next steps making the record?

WOW. What a great surprise. I didn't take time to watch it last night, went to sleep instead as most people, I was expected random questions about her favorite stuff and that she would avoid AL6 questions but she proved us wrong (and thanks to those of you who took time to write a summary on here) ๐๐
Even though organization wasn't the greatest, it is just a detail, this live perfectly made up for all the microphone pictures we had recently. We now have answers to some stuff we were wondering.
I love her look here, beanies always suit her. She seems so serene and above all has a strong vision as to what she wants for this album โค๏ธ

Also, can someone light me up what is "mixing" mean? Or what is probably the next steps making the record? Mixing and mastering is the last stage of the album. They take all of her vocal takes and choose the best ones, mix them with the track to make sure theyโre balanced with the music, make sure thereโs no glitches or errors in the sound, clean up the sound, like remove hisses and white noise, etc. It shouldnโt take that long. Itโs still impossible for the album to come out this year even if they finished quickly, but hopefully since sheโs been in meetings with her manager theyโre already working on a plan to release a single and decide on dates. I think if sheโs wrapping this month I think after sheโs done sheโs going to take a break for the holidays and probably be with her family. So I think the album wonโt even come in the first quarter of 2018. I think maybe we could get the single in March followed by album in April or May. I imagine that maybe springtime is what theyโre aiming for as it kind of symbolizes her rebirth, new beginning, etc.

But I do hope we at least get an artwork, snippet, announcment in 2018 january.

Maybe the label wants to use the nostalgia card, that's why they wanted her to make some rock songs. Something like "The LG/UMS Avril is back". They want to bring the old Avril back like EVERYBODY wanted the last ten years. And by everybody i mean the GP

Not sure if BMG can afford Martin and also, he isn't that obvious hitmaker choice anymore. He works for some of the artists, but look at Katy - it clearly didn't work. Let's hope the new more upbeat tracks (which I mean are both for her fans and the label tbh) will not make this entire album messy. You know, let's hope they fit the overall sound.
For now, if they really move to mixing this month and it's smooth, March album release is possible.

I think we have a Goodbye Lullaby album release schedule coming our way. If she wraps up production this month, December will be for mixing, probably January and part of February. She could definitely drop her lead single in January, like she did with WTH, and release the album early March.
She could still take time off to enjoy her holidays while mixing is taking place. The heaviest part of the making is almost complete.
I hope we donโt have to wait till spring or summer for a single and album.

So i Think 1st single is Coming out late February/ March
The Record in April/May along with a 2nd single
-- I can't see a single in December or January because she will finish it this month, then mix it in December, so I think it will "truly be done" around Christmas, but then promo / photoshoot must be done..

So she still has to write/record/produce some songs but most of the songs are already done. If she really finishes everything this month then she's done when it comes to the music since she's not doing the mixing anyway. She still has to do the music video and album cover.
