It's easy to blame people. Do we really know what's happening? I don't think so. Relax, don't think too much about AL6 and enjoy your life with something else. 😉 Thats kinda what the problem is

I don’t know if is more annoying the silence about everything, or if it’s us expectulating for more than one year here. Every few days, if not everyday, it’s the same thing. Some people saying they are over it, some saying “whatever when comes will come”, others trying to find crazy excuses and paint Avril as perfect, some extreme comments as if a life depends on the album, some other extreme comments as if people know all that’s going on..
We are all crazy cause of it, one way or another. Doesn’t matter if we are fine waiting or desperate waiting.
I just can’t wait for when the album is out, doesn’t matter when, so we can finally talk about something cool. Like comment on the lyrics/music and so on

I mean we have 491 pages of literally about NOTHING. It would be cool talking about our favourite tracks, what should be the next single, but this is life, whatever we do or talk, we have to wait.

Some album titles I was thinking the last couple of days
"Risen" (I was thinking the opposite of Fallen by Evanescence) "From The Ashes" "Forsake Never" or "Never Forsaken" "Benevolence" "Escape" "Brightened" or "Bright Side Of Life" "Fears And Tears" "From Seething To Healing"

Are you aware we had one thread before she made the christmas moring announcement in 2016.. so there are a lot more pages

I’m not a fan of them but to me that album is iconic so yeah made me excited with that name ahaha

We have no idea what her manager does. You can’t just say she doesn’t do anything just because we don’t see what she does. I feel bad for Avril because any time she does say something, fans still bitch at her in the comments and I can understand why she stays silent. She’s damned if she does and damned if she doesn’t. If she says anything, it’s usually a vague statement saying “soon” and fans complain about waiting longer and that the statement isn’t specific enough. Her statements also don’t mean anything anymore if she has been saying soon for 2 years. Every time she says she’s going to be done, another delay happens. There’s little point in her saying anything right now when it will probably change. There’s a lot of artists who honestly don’t communicate much with their fans when delays are happening. Dalton had said his album would be out in late 2016, then it was Jan/Feb 2017, then nothing until September 2017. He never explained why the album was delayed and never said “Sorry guys, not this month.” Or “It’s taking longer than I expected.” Only when I saw him at a show in March 2017 and got to ask him in person about it did he finally talk about what was going on. And even as an independent artist with no label, he still had to have songs approved by his management. He did not get 100% control over it so you can imagine what kinds of red tape Avril has to deal with. Danielle Bradbery has a similar situation, she kept saying soon about her new album for literally years. She even said originally it was going to be an EP released in September 2016. The interview where she said that was pulled immediately when that idea fell through. She never said what was taking so long to finish the album, on Twitter she just kept saying soon. Only at some kind of event with a Q&A did she finally discuss why it was taking so long, and a fan was able to record it and share it. So it wasn’t even anything that was nationally broadcast where everyone could see it. Finally in August she announced her album for December 2017. Like Avril, she wanted to get the right mix of songs and she kept writing a lot. Ideally she should let us know what is happening, if she’s still writing or recording or what, because we’ve been told numerous times soon and production is wrapping. It’s confusing where she’s at right now. But I honestly think he IG stories are the most of an explanation we can hope for. I’d rather her say nothing at all until everything is truly finished and they have a single with a release date. Because anything she says these days ends up meaning nothing and what’s really the point in that? By the way, I can’t help but expess my utter disgust at so-called “fans” writing death threats to her on her own fansite. That post should be edited or removed entirely IMO and it goes WAY over the line of what is acceptable. A fan would never write something like that especially wishing death on a woman who almost died of a serious disease. That’s truly disgusting and no matter how frustrating the album situation may be, nothing warrants fans wishing death on her. People like that and comments like that are one of the many reasons why Avril probably stays silent. That’s what I’m not understand, look I have no problem with the waiting, but does she really not now what’s going on in her fan base Why can’t she not say: There are some issues with the new album going on and I will inform you guys by any news. So everything would be fine. What’s so difficult about that

I think this album is going to be her worst yet... clearly the songs written with Chad were scrapped. I’m sure the personal and cleaver lyrics are gone. She’s writing while drunk which never results in good music from her... all of her album rewrites have turned out terrible... Dr. Luke, Alex Da Kid, Max Martin, Martin Johnson, and now this. I like the idea of an album forming organically, but now she’s forcing one out (again). At 19 I thought Avril acting like a “punk” by writing and recording music while drunk was fun, but let me tell you I personally do not want another TBDT when I’m turning 30 next month 🙄 Goodbye Lullaby (the original cut anyway) was ahead of its time... I’d like another introspective record with meaningful songs about health, recovery, and positive inspiration while taking influences from country and jazz. Now I fear it’s just going to be recycled pop songs like GF, ICDB, IDHTT, WTH, Smile, HTNGU, RnR, Bitchin’ Summer, YASNY, Hello Kitty, SOS, and Bad Girl...
I am SOOO over her... I’m done posting here, and I’m done commenting on shit from her social media. Until there’s an actual press release, I’m done. Done, done, DONE. This is not healthy... everybody handles things in different ways, but the last DECADE has been NOTHING but delays and revisions, and I’m over it... and I think it is perfectly acceptable for somebody to be frustrated by this point... she’s been in the studio writing songs for almost 3 years, now! Obviously I will listen to the entire record, if it ever comes out... I will listen to the lead single once it’s released (and hopefully won’t lose my shit again), and then buy the CD off Amazon.jp. If it really turns out to be mostly piano ballads, then great! Hopefully I’ll enjoy it as much as I love Goodbye Lullaby, Under My Skin, Let Go, and the B-Sides... but I swear to fucking god if it’s another motherfucking princess “punk” album aimed at 14-year-old scene kids, I will hit that unlike button so fast on her Facebook page my head is going to spin 😡😡😡

Absolutely pathetic as well seeing how they're (hopefully) empty threats. Yes the wait is long and it's frustrating and she's never been very communicative but Jesus it's only an album...how does that even warrant giving her shit like that?

I don't think we can blame the fans for bitching around about her social media activity, when it's Avril's fault for half-assing everything for years now. She posts something then stays silent for weeks and posts the same picture with a different filter and the caption "recording for u guys xx" again. Fans can't control what she posts but they're just asking for a little consistency. If she was a "private person" as she says and used social media only to promote her music fans wouldn't have those expectations that she has update us every week with the current album status. Either use social media right or don't use it at all, she isn't doing either. That's the problem.

Death threats shouldn't be tolerated here or anywhere else.

I feel the same, but the end of the day what we can do? Hope, pray that the album will be really worth the wait. Problem is that we know absolutely nothing at all, since what Avril said in the FB Live is now gone, so we can assume what she said there is also not 100% confirmed it will happen. Sure, I dont want another AL or TBDT, but I dont think jazz or country will be good 4 her. Anyways, we have our own tastes

I'm not sure if they are even checking the comments. If they would they know what is going on in her fanbase.

She grew up singing country and has listened to jazz for years... feels like a natural progression to me. Let Go has country influences and BICO is jazz. I think she sounds great in those 🤷🏿♀️
