Album threads

Most of the old album threads have been closed for good. Album threads will no longer be used to discuss the artist in general. This type of discussion has been moved to the artist threads in Base.

To open an album thread, the following is required:
Title is known
Exact release date is known
Release date is less than a month from now

What can be posted/discussed in an album thread:
Track listing
Reviews, thoughts about the album, both your own and those of critics
First sales weeks, discussion of these sales
Promo for the album

Album threads will be closed a few weeks after release, at the discretion of the moderators. The shorter life span of the album threads should help keep the focus on discussing only the album. After the thread is closed, the later performance and sales of the album can be discussed in the artist's Base thread, and in the Charts section.

Single threads

Single threads can still be created for each single, but you need to provide a source that confirms the song was indeed chosen as a single.

What can be posted/discussed in a single thread:
Reviews, thoughts about the single, both your own and those of critics
(Worldwide) charts, sales, iTunes and airplay updates
Promo for the single, including the music video

Kelly performed at Sony's CES conference today. Random!

It looks like Kelly is the new Image of Sony

So... I guess we talk about Stronger and Kelly here now?

How about we don't even bother making a What Doesn't Kill You thread then since it will be closed in 2 months and it obviously will be still charting by then...Mr. Know It All may still be going in 2 months LOL!

I say we just put everything in here now...including AI updates and stuff

Doesn't surprise me one bit

Kelly is currently RCA's #1 artist right now since basically everything else released lately by the label has failed and Stronger has already been more successful then them with just one single

[Sky Engineer]

[Mzd]

when was this?

[vonno]

Damn, had hoped it was walk away
Her hair is pretty long (without exentions), bet she changes it again before tour

I don't get why the last thread closed?? I think everything from the this era should be on that thread. Similar to how Pulse does it. Oh well. Base seems rather useless to me. It's more for the useless talk like what singles we want, previous eras, etc.

Anyway. Looks like they pulled a fast one. Kelly sang MKIA at Sony Press Conference CES in Las Vegas tonight!

So are you guys sticking with BASE? or do we continue with the Album thread?? I really don't wanna post the same crap twice.

[vonno]

I'm inclined to say base cause mods will just close all album threads eventually
