AL7 Album Speculations Thread

I'm sorry if I didn't explain myself, I wasn't talking about songs that may come later. I was just saying that the songs she is doing right now may not be as pop-punk as we think, maybe not more of what RnR was. I was just saying that even if they turn out to be something softer, we have to remember this moment of her enjoying doing these songs and being open about the process. These are clearly songs Avril wants to make, just like Dumb Blonde was.

She was just as passionate about songs like 17 and described those songs like "rock" and even talked about "killer drums" that were never there. I just take Avril's concept of rock with a grain of salt.

Besides, was it ever confirmed that the non-tripod songs from AL were pushed by the label? Maybe she was completely on board with making pop-hit material songs. Didn't she bring herself one of the producers (whose name I cant remember) of Team Avril for Hello Kitty first?

PS. I do agree the current co-workers seem way more legit that the whole team she got AL. The production of those is either lacking or basic AF.

We can't really compare john feldmann who has like a 30+ y/o career with martin johnson who's credits as a producer back then was a hannah montana soundtrack. And mitch allan who did dumb blonde it's very disney driven when it comes to production as well. Not to mention the song it's like that on purpose?
Just travis barker being envolved with his kick ass drums it's a statement that we won't get summer songs this time around. She's working with REALLY good people. Even modsun that it's not that well known seems to be very talented and hands on with instrumentation. I guess underproduced tracks won't be a problem this time around

Can you imagine bringing Evan back just to write/cowrite with her? We're just dreaming too much now xD

The fact that Feldman is on this project eases my mind too. Avril can be loose with the word "rock" but not Feldman and Barker. It's the EDM influence around her that I'm more curious about. Also has anyone thought about the rap influence it may have too? Mod sun is or was a rapper.

And yesss Evan being a part of this project would be amazing!

I'm pretty sure in the series of stories she posted in the studio we saw ModSun sitting at the drum kit and so was Avril, maybe even she herself is playing drums on the record, which she has never done before.

I think it would be the best to actually release the video for Flames simultaneously with the song. Most of Mod Sun's fanbase is US based so even if the video is not right away released they will stream the song on streaming services. Avril's fan base is much more "global" and YouTube is the only service a big portion of her fanbase uses to consume her music. He would want to draw as much Avril fans as possible to the song, so I think that unlike with the other videos for his singles, the Flame one will be released on January 8.
