Surely a fan-made cover, but a nicely-done one at that. I wouldn't mind if that were something close to the real thing. JUST MORE COLOR.

Songs so far:
XX. Mad World XX. You are the only one XX. TODAY XX. Survivor XX. ? XX. ? XX. ? XX. ? XX. ? XX. ? XX. ? XX. ? XX. ? ...? Anyone seeing kind of a pattern here? This seems like a very I am...-y list. I really hope the album cover is not safe or on a bed. There's just too much potential here!

The lyrics of Survivor are awesome so far. She really got me with them, I'm so excited for the whole song now.

^ In what way could this possibly be I am-y?
There is seriouly no pattern to be seen here. She is just teasing by uploading everyday another title.

It's very "worldly" and general/straightforward, something she hasn't done in a long time... probably since Rock'n'Roll Circus. And in this manner, not since I am... IMO.
You don't have to agree, but I really get that sort of "this is my worldview and how I choose to live" vibe from the titles so far.

Well the photos might be from/related to the album's booklet... Only bad thing is that ayu's revealing them before hand if so. =\

hmm..isn't it a bit weird to show the whole booklet before the covers are even released? LOVE and sixxxxxx are mini albums and ayu's EP's are usually marketed differently than her studio albums. LOVE was practically a single and sixxxxxx was like an extension of A ONE, both being part of her "return to form, fresh ayu" project. I believe that 2015 was like a "restart" because 2010 saw the end of a cicle (12 LPs, 12 years, Virgin Road being the epilogue) and from 2011 to 2014 she tried different things : first mini album in 8 years FIVE which didn't have any preceding single, conceptual album Party Queen, anniversary demo-ish LOVE again which was preceded by 2 maxi singles marketed as mini albums and a mostly dance pop record with massive western influences which was promoted through "special" singles sold at the PS venues.
So yeah, I hope that these pics are just promo pics. Titles and snippet lyrics look too promising for such a simple shooting.

I love this form of promotion. It sucks that we are not getting snippets but one song being revealed everyday is kind of got me on edge like I use to be for her releases. I don't think I have been this excited since GUILTY released in 2008.

I like the word "worldly". I really hope the pictures she posted along with the lyrics have nothing to do with the new album art. I want conceptual cover please.

You know the lyrical content of the next album is indeed good when they dare to use words rather than sound as promotion material ; -)
Still, hoping the visual of the album can be conceptual and/or edgy. I suppose they use Numero recycled shoots only because they dont want to reveal or havent yet done the actual photoshoot

Even just a conceptual cover would be amazing.
But the shoot as a whole is so basic that it's making me sad, lol. She looks great but that is basically it. I do have a sliver of hope that perhaps there is a different shoot but for now... I am not expecting it by any means. I kind of already exhausted all my tags, so if someone could also help tag this thread with new titles, please do so! Thanks.

An outdoor shoot would have been good too ... With the them of 4 seasons a looot of amazing things were possible ...after all they are only pictures but they are flat compared to the strong lyrics :/

The biggest twist would be, on release date, you can order the album, but only with a plastic case + CD/DVD/BD, and you have to actually download and print your own booklet from twitter/facebook pictures xDDD
EDIT: ^Yes, but I wouldn't mind it. It's classy and japanese at the same time
