Great Pitchfork writeup. I love what he says about Vanessa's confidence in this album. She comes off as very worldly, I think. Particularly in songs "Blue Pool" where she portrays this older washed-up celebrity (that's the story, right?), "Take it Easy" and "House of Seven Swords" where she seems to be giving advice to someone younger about how the world works, and "Operator" where she portrays an older woman seducing a younger man. Even "NWSUTB" approaches a breakup with more wisdom than most songs do. If you want to call me, just do it. That's actually very adult.

We've all been calling Liberman "mature" and I was never really sure why, but this review made me think about how true that really is.

Very true, the review was really smart. I think you've really hit the nail on the head with your analysis here. It's definitely her most mature record. I think the improvements in her vocals really help here also. Her voice really sells the wisdom and one of the albums biggest strengths is how well she is able to use her voice as an instrument now.

Pitchfork just posted a review!

Yay!! Good one to. The album seems to be getting a bit of attention now, which is encouraging. Although it still cracks me up that seemingly everyone of them is going to reference ATM in the first paragraph.

Preorder your signed copy of Liberman now through @vanessacarlton’s webstore! Head to http://bit.ly/VClstore  for details

and when you preorder it you get "Nothing Where Something Used To Be" and if you choose the deluxe edition you get "House Of Seven Swords (Demo)" too!

The studio version of NWSUTB?

Also, trailer for Liberman! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=av3z6bGgbis

Edit: Don't make the same mistake I did and checkout as a guest or you won't be able to download the free mp3 apparently

yep, messed up too. don't check out as guest/go straight to paypal w/o making an account.

i did the same. that's so lame. the main reason why i bought the CD right now was because of the digital downloads. so we just dont get to have the songs?

I did this also, so mad. There is really no way to figure it out in advance that I can see. Wish I'd popped on here earlier

i tried to contact them about this but havent got any answer yet.

On the site it says "If you purchased a digital download, your download link is included in the sales receipt email that you will receive about 5 mins after your purchase is complete."

I got the receipt but no links, is it possible that they just aren't available yet?

same here. but i saw somewhere that they send the links on the friday after the purchase. so i hope we get it tomorrow (which is still lame, because i think if we have been logged in while buying it we would already have the songs, but i'll take it.)

Oh that's something at least. Fingers crossed for tomorrow then!

Beginning to worry that the album is not going to be available to buy internationally
