The Weeknd - Dawn FM

[spaceship]

It's serving fictional Grand Theft Auto radio station and I'm living for that.

 

[RMK]

The GQ article from the summer had me perched, and radio tag is intriguing as a concept. Not sure what to think of some of these features, but ready.

 

[Andy French]

Jim Carrey being involved in this is iconic and feels like such a full circle moment after the story of how they met in the most Weeknd way possible earlier this year

The trailer leaves me cold, however I adore Take My Breath (way more than almost all of you ddd) so I’m sufficiently perched.

[Bobbyrae]

Lil Wayne?! The fuck.

Yes the extended version of 'Take My Breath'!

Two of my favs releasing on Friday. I hope I'll survive the rush of dopamine.

 

[Smooth Criminal]

Him using the extended version of Take My Breath as the album version... I know that's right.

 

[1991]

Tyler getting a spot on the album? I know that's right! I see he stays being a Bret Easton Ellis stan too with the Less Than Zero.

Perched for Friday! After Hours is probably my second favourite after House of Balloons.

Surely not dddd

I don’t hate it but it caught me off guard. I’m guessing he’s playing the old version of his After Hours character. Interested in how the concept plays out:

Picture the album being like the listener is dead. And they’re stuck in this purgatory state, which I always imagined would be like being stuck in traffic waiting to reach the light at the end of the tunnel. And while you’re stuck in traffic, they got a radio station playing in the car, with a radio host guiding you to the light and helping you transition to the other side. So it could feel celebratory, could feel bleak, however you want to make it feel, but that’s what The Dawn is for me.

Zzzz at the cover. Nothing about this project feels fresh so far.

 

[Madaboutmusic]

I love the premise of the album based on what we've seen so far. Looking forward to hearing the full thing on Friday.

Robert Beatty snapped on the alternate covers, as per usual.

 

[Aidan]

The vinyl isn’t shipping until April but those alternate covers are too good to pass up.

I... second artwork in a row where somethings up with his face. His visuals don't hit me the way his music does.
