It appears “Bois Lie” is getting all the attention. But my god I think “Love Sux” is one of the cutest songs I have ever heard.

As a 20 year stan, it’s so emotional listening to this. What a fucking record.

This is a fantastic album.. not a single dud. I had high hopes but this far exceeds expectations. Holy shit.
My early favorites: Love Sux Avalanche Boys Lie Cannonball

The album is so good! I'll need a few more listens before picking favourites as every song is my favourite currently!
It's so great to see it being her most critically acclaimed album so far!
I hope "Bois Lie" gets sent to Alt/Pop and can become a hit.

Avril has never delivered a misfire of an album for me -- big longtime stan here -- so I'm not surprised, but I fucking LOVE it. My only complaint is that I wish it were longer. Like if she could've done a deluxe edition with a few more songs. It's so good though and I hope the current single really gets going on radio and that "Bois Lie" can be a hit next. So good!

For a casual fan like me, I like the shorter songs in general. Good album.

This album is f**king RELENTLESS. It goes IN and IN and IN and drums, drums, drums. I think that's what's making me put this on repeat. The drums + anthemic choruses make rocking out more reflex than choice. It's an infectious, addictive record in the best way.

I've played Avalanche NONstop since Wednesday...
So good, but those lyrics are hitting so hard that it's not good that I can relate that much :(

Apparantly she had the highest streaming debut for a female so far this year on Spotify.

I think she is going ot do a deluxe edition later to coincide with a vinyl release. I'm definitely for that strategy especially if she added 3 or 4 songs onto it. This is a super cohesive album and im pleasently surprised at the amount of streaming and radio support it is getting. I guess it pays to be doing the current up and coming sound + having the background to have earned your place to do it. Go Avril, you deserve all the success!

Wow. So happy for her seeing early success with this album! It deserves. I haven't taken it out of rotation since getting it, although this morning, while getting out of bed, I realized that I didn't have Bite Me uploaded on my computer or phone. LOL at my bopping to an incomplete album since release day. I think it's because I had already downloaded Bite Me from Apple Music when it dropped, so when I uploaded the CD to my iTunes, it just skipped over that song, figuring it was a repeat. I added it back today, but it's funny, the album was fine without it and I actually like that song.

DTA deal isn't doing her any favour in terms of playlisting. The previous 2 singles & now da almbum tracks, non of em have good playlisting. (I really thought Bite me would blow up, it'd all da ingredients & hype to be huge but playlisting was bad)

It’s a business at the end of the day.

Another thing I love (because I can't stop praising this album) is how hooky it is. I'll wake up with "F.U." in my head, hum "Bois Lie" during my workout, absentmindedly belt "Kiss Me Like The World Is Ending" in the shower, etc. I can't remember the last time I listened to a new record and had so many different songs from it stuck in my head.
I know a lot of people don't love the shorter songs, but I think they add to the replayability of this album. Like I'll go to Spotify for "Déjà Vu," then queue up "Love Sux," then just end up listening to every song. Only takes a half hour, and I keep wanting more when it's done.

Tomato, tomahto, dahling. Who cares, really? Avril also pronounces all of her Ts, which is even more uncommon, especially in music. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

SAME! Even the songs that weren’t immediate. I woke up today and was humming “from the city that never loved you, from the town I always hated, me and you, can’t lose oh woaaaah oh woaaaaah”
