I rewatched it today and it doesn’t even have a million views. She has millions of followers on FB. I’d say if management was trying to see how interested fans are, this doesn’t cut it.

I think the managememt or even Avril read some comments before and they know that the fan base is unhappy because of the lack of information. I think they did this really quick just to give some info about the album. So they can hype the fans a little bit and give some info so we wont bitching all day lol.

If you look at her other videos on FB you'll see that she doesn't get a lot of views on FB. If they did an Instagram Live it would have had more views at the time of the live stream. The only thing about Instagram is its only up for the 24 hours.

That’s what I’m thinking also when she says “punk rock” that she means more like TBDT pop punk. If it’s like TBDT with mature lyrics, I’m pretty cool with that. However, I hope the original vision for the album hasn’t changed too much. I was pretty excited about her going back to her roots and doing something we hadn’t heard before. I was excited to hear emotional songs about her illness. I hope those songs haven’t been scrapped. And I hope if there’s a mixture of songs it won’t sound like a mess like AL. I wonder if she had a similar situation like with GL, where she realized it was an album full of ballads and decided to write some upbeat songs to balance it out. I've honestly thought of the same thing. I believe of what she meant by making Punk Rock music is that she'll add some Pop Punk songs on her upcoming record. I'll love that to be honest, but hopefully they'll be well executed once they're released.

I think everyone knows Joe Strummer is the lead vocalist of the Clash I'm happy to hear that. I think he deserves the recognition. The last time The Clash released an album, Avril was still in diapers. So, I doubted many of her fans would know of him. I must say that without internet I wouldn't had ever heard about The Clash- or about most of the pre-90s music. I think that it has filled the generational gap for many people. Oh, and the movies, maybe. I have the vague memory of having heard "I fought the law" in a film for the first time. An entirely different matter is what Avril calls punk rock. The funny thing about her is that she KNOWS what punk rock is because during the Let Go/ UMS era she was introduced to the most important bands by her bandmates (from what I remember to have read in interviews, they specifically mentioned to listen to the Sex Pistols and the Ramones with her, so at least she knows the two founding punk acts) but I'm 99% sure she isn't referring to what most people would call punk at all. My personal take on this is that she means something like a Blink 182 kind of fast paced song à la "Dammit" or maybe like Green Day's most upbeat stuff but by no means anything you could find in Never Mind The Bollocks or Unknown Pleasures. Regarding the stream, I think that, knowing Avril, we should focus on the softest side. At least she was willing to communicate with her fans as many of them wanted her to. I agree that several important questions got overlooked though. I agree with Andrea-btw, that was a good attempt, I wish she had replied to your questions - we shouldn't expect anything really relevant until the end of the holiday season.

I honestly don’t think she’s ever going to explicitly say “the album is delayed.” I think she realizes most fans can figure out for themselves the album isn’t coming this year, I mean it’s obvious without her having to explain it. Her team may have advised her to pretend like the 2017 announcement never happened and not to say anything about delays or pushbacks because it would make fans get angry at her (the immature ones on IG and Twitter I mean). It might also circulate bad press in the media. We’ve all figured out there’s no way the album can come out this year. There’s really no need for her to say it. I expect she’ll probably make an announcement when she has wrapped production and then she’ll probably break for the holidays, we’ll get lots of holiday posts. In the beginning of 2018 she’ll announce the first single release and album release date. I believe things will start rolling in Q1 of 2018, once the holidays are over. That’s provided they truly finish this month. Good point. I guess I still had a glimmer of hope that we just might see a 2017 release. Despite her silence though, whenever her album does come out, I'm almost certain that interviewers will question her about the delay. I wonder what her response will be and what exactly happened... Thanks for sharing

Yeah, I know The Clash just because I once heard one song on the tv show and liked it) but I knew this name before As for Avril, I remember she once said she was listening to pennywise, so for her (like for many others of our generation) punk rock it’s Californian skate punk first)
