Avril has a new hair color. I hope this is a start of a new era.

Although I don't believe a new album is coming anytime soon, I was wondering if this gap between the end of the European leg (July 13) and the beginning of the next North American leg (August 12) would be the perfect time to release a new single... The hype is here, and it's gonna be wasted. It's such a pity. Even if it's just for a GH deluxe (featuring 1, new song, 2, Hot, 3, WYWH, 4, Alice, 5, HK: totalling 25 songs on the collection). Btw this is just me fanfictioning, no way it's happening! 🤣 If we were talking about any other artist I’d say it’s very possible she’d use the gap to release a new single but sadly Avril and her team never seem to capitalize on opportunities like this. They will probably let it pass with nothing.

Well considering some of the songs that didn't make it to LS, she have enough to keep the "punkish" sound and some cool themes to explore: "Anesthesia", "C'est la vie" and even "Teenage nightmare" are kind of "motivation songs" about having hard times and getting over them. Also, we have some upbeat love songs such as "Too fast to live" and "Eternally" and even the snippet with blink-182's sample "Rock show". Maybe we are done with the "love sucks theme" but not with the sound and I'm fine with this. Because this is the sound she feels more confortable with and still be a good.

Not really a fan of these "avant garde" type fashion shoots but I like the punkier photos that look more like her normal self. I also like what she had to say about how she handles balance in her career and her advice to new artists about staying true to themselves. I'm surprised to hear she is up on the new pop girl acts.

Also since there is no direct reference to new music, I'm going to assume there's nothing coming anytime soon or this year. I think she's intending to ride this Greatest Hits wave for a while and take her time. Which I'm honestly ok with. I'd rather she take her time and put out a good album than rush it and it stinks. We're so used to getting things quickly nowadays and just moving from one thing to the next without really absorbing it or appreciating it. I can respect that she wants to use the GH to celebrate her career thus far and enjoy the legacy she has built for a while before moving on to the next phase of her career, she doesn't seem like she's really sure on what her next move is, and so it's probably wise not to rush into a new album right now if she's just not inspired or it's not coming together just yet. She's at a point in her career where she doesn't have to put out music that often anymore, she has her fanbase that supports her and will be here even if it takes another 5 years for her to put out another album.

I tend to assume she's so out of touch with what is current (based on the way she manages her own career) but when she answers questions about what she is listening at a certain moment she always surprises me

I just find it funny how she went from "my 8th album is almost there" in February 2023 to pretending there was never an album to begin with.
The outfits are nice, but tbh I'm kind of done with the LG throwbacks being constantly thrown at our faces with the tie and tank top situation. Ever since 2022, everything has been about LG. I can see why it keeps getting the attention by being her debut, but can we move on from it? We're still celebrating it's "20th" anniversary after more than 2 years lol. We've had her wearing a tank top and a tie so often now it's lost its magic "nostalgia" touch.
I'm worried she's actually scrapped everything she had, cause she's now in "I have a guitar to write in case I'm inspired" mode. It's like, where's the album she hinted so many times last year? If it's scrapped, I'd rather know it by now, so we know we're not getting new music for at least two more years. I guess we'll have to wait and see. She did say in December last year she would "definitely be releasing new music next year". Is that still the case? How long are we going to be living in this GH era?
If she’s taking a break from music after tour it’s perfectly fine, but I’d rather know if there are no plans for an album anymore. I’m fine with it, but we always thought a new album would be coming s**n, so it does make one feel a bit frustrated lol.

I love Chappell Roan, and I can see why Avril mentioned her. A few of her songs have some post-TBDT Avril touches, especially those where Avril experiments with electronics or highly produced pop songs. I don't know if Chappell was somehow inspired by Avril, but I've seen a video of her singing I'm with You.
Regarding Let Go references, I find self-references increasingly boring. However, Let Go remains her most iconic, best-selling, and memorable album. To me, it makes more sense to reference it now during GH era than during her new eras, when she should focus on the new aspects of her image. For instance, I disliked the idea of her putting colors on her hair during Love Sux because it feels too reminiscent of TBDT or even GL. I preferred it when she cut her hair short, as it was new, modern, and unlike anything she had done before. But, of course, opinions can vary.

Honestly, I wasn't that excited about a GH album and tour before, but it is kind of fun. The only bad side is we don't have any singles to follow. This "era" will clearly last for at least a year. I don't know if the hype will still be there when she finally launches AL8, because it's probably not coming anytime soon, but maybe this tour could be the perfect thing to do her documentary, and that would be the perfect warm-up for a new era too.

For me it’s the best styled shoot in last 2-3 years for sure! They tried smth new on her and it all looks really fashionable, so i really love this shoot
