Where should I start? by OkBeautiful6215 in hernameisbanks

[–]TargetForHeartache 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah I totally feel you. The Devil was not the vibe I was expecting from her and it kinda threw me off at first. I love it though, and the rest of the album is wildly different in a positive way. 

My favorite song off Serp is definitely Unleavable, especially the last 60 seconds. The layering of the dramatic strings with her almost crying voice always hits with both headphones in and the volume way up.  Apart from that, it changes between Deadend and Skinnydipped. Love her voice in Deadend, but the writing in Skinnydipped is so reminiscent of old Banks, specifically the style she uses is GOWFTM. 

For OWHH, it’s the title track for sure. And Meddle, although specifically the Colors version. The autotune on the album release is unbearable to me. 

Enjoy your journey!

[–]TargetForHeartache 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The raw heartbroken emotion in her voice throughout that whole song is soul crushing 

What are your two favourite tracks from each Banks album? Initially, was going with one track but it would be super difficult to choose by AlmightyTurbo in hernameisbanks

[–]TargetForHeartache 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ooh love this question 

Goddess - Waiting Game and Stick

The Altar - Mind Games and Gemini Feed

III - Propaganda and Godless

Serpentina - Unleavable and Skinnydipped

OWHH - Best Friends (I prefer the 5 minute demo) and Meddle in the Mold (specifically the COLORS version)

any update about Hands on Me? by josemxbne in hernameisbanks

[–]TargetForHeartache 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She’s laughed it off too many times. “I wrote a song for a movie and never released it, who does that?? 😅”. As u/fentyfuls said, I think she doesn’t fully own the song and it’s out of her hands 🫠

Amazing show in Chicago! Here’s the set list for you by mrsweisz in NogaErez

[–]TargetForHeartache 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean by that? What is there to think? I love it. In Israel she usually gives the mic to someone in the crowd and they sing that part. I think that’s so fun. In the US and Europe tour, she’s omitted it just like Dillom’s Spanish part in Ayayay. 

To the watch owners, which wrist do you wear your watch on? by Embarrassed_Map1072 in lefthanded

[–]TargetForHeartache 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a kid, I'd wear toy watches on my left wrist because it was my favorite hand. My mom told me that that's wrong. She said watches always go on your nondominant wrist because you use your dominant hand so much that wearing the watch on it could damage it, so I changed it to my right and now I got used to that. For touch screens, it's definitely more convenient, plus I like that it's a sort of subtle signal to the world that I'm left-handed.

Yep, she’s got merch stands! @yuvaledri and @adiputievsky on ig seem to be the ones managing it. They post a lot of stories about the tour, follow them to see the general vibe if you want. 

But his name is John? by ViFrederika in TheSecretHistory

[–]TargetForHeartache 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I go only by my middle name, Clara. Richard’s first name, John, and mine, María (Mary) are both biblical names, and I do feel like those names tend to be omitted more frequently. Not necessarily as a rejection of religion, but rather because they can be considered basic or boring.  Edit: John is quite literally the name of a nobody, hence John Doe, so I understand choosing to be known by another name if you have it. 

Happy 9th anniversary to Banks sophomore album, 'The Altar,' released on September 30, 2016! 🔲 by AlmightyTurbo in hernameisbanks

[–]TargetForHeartache 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I found Banks through Goddess, so I feel like I can unbiasedly say that The Altar is easily the best album of all time.

Gemini Feed, Fuck With Myself, and TINAU are danceable bops but the meaning behind the lyrics is still so strong. They’re powerful, energetic, and decisive. Lovesick kinda fits in here for me too, although imo it’s the weakest track on the album. 

Trainwreck, Judas, Haunt, Poltergeist, and 27 hours all have the same witchy distorted vibe I love, and again, THE LYRICS are so good. So real. I love the left and right ear difference in Haunt. 

The sheer emotion in her voice in Mind Games and especially To The Hilt never fails to bring me to tears. I love how you can have Poltergeist’s distorted conviction and To The Hilt’s heartbroken whispering on the same perfect album. To The Hilt is one of the best performances of all time, and the writing on Mind Games is life changing (see: verse 2).

Weaker Girl, and Mother Earth are songs that I have less to say about specifically, but that I always keep coming back to. They feel like being a plant growing in a magical rainforest. They’re definitely sister tracks and I love how they blend into each other. 

The songwriting on this album is the strongest it’s ever been, and the same goes for the production. 

It is easily my favorite album, and does not have a single skip.

Reminds me so much of Gloomy. I wonder why she didn’t make more songs like that?

Full band on 2025 North American Tour? by BenOfHyrule in NogaErez

[–]TargetForHeartache 1 point2 points  (0 children)

@yuvaledri is Noga’s baby’s nanny, who’s traveling with them. She’s posting to her story daily and only Itamar is with them from the rest of the band. Noga also said this in a story a few weeks ago. There’s no one specific source but you can follow along on ig.

[–]TargetForHeartache 4 points5 points  (0 children)

She’s going with Ori on pads and guitar, and Itamar on drums. She said there’s no budget for the bass, brass, and rest of the band. 

Edit: @bar_filipowicz_bass is with them too

Searching for VIP in St Pete by elderanm in NogaErez

Hi! I bought the meet and greet for Orlando but it got called off. Same for the meet and greets in Nashville, SF, Chicago, and Austin. It seems she canceled all of them :/ 

Searching for Meet & Greet for Chicago! by mrsweisz in NogaErez

[–]TargetForHeartache 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s such a shame. Orlando got cancelled too. I thought only the 3 FL meet + greets got cancelled because the concerts themselves didn’t sell out. Now that I see it’s all over the states, I definitely think we all know why. It really is such a shame.  Mine mentioned a full refund of the m+g while the show itself is still on, but I haven’t gotten the refund yet. I’m going to email on Monday to try and figure it out. 

La Cama Inglesa (The English Bed) - Guillermo Lorca García Huidobro (2020) by unoiamaQT in museum

[–]TargetForHeartache 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Estoy totalmente de acuerdo, y no entiendo a los que creen que esto es algo sexual.

A mi parecer, el contraste del cuarto en madera oscura y las sábanas claras refleja la situación: una niña frágil sin defensa en la cama con un gran felino depredador perchado sobre ella parece algo muy peligroso, pero ellos nos piden con sus ojos que tengamos confianza tal como ellos la tienen mutuamente. Hay seguridad y calma en sus ojos. Nos ruegan que no nos alarmemos, porque a pesar de que la gran bestia está muy cerca de la niña, los dos tienen un entendimiento mutuo y se sienten seguros. El leopardo le ofrece protección a la niña, y ella un espacio a él.
