Taylor Swift attends the 77th Annual Golden Globe Awards at The Beverly Hilton Hotel on January 05, 2020 in Beverly Hills, California.

Not a whole lot going on at the moment...or is there?! On Thursday morning (Dec. 10), Taylor Swift dropped another epic surprise with the news that her ninth studio album would be dropping in just a matter of hours.

Titled Evermore, Swift revealed via social media that her second LP of the year is a "sister record" to 2020's Folklore, and -- in classic Tay fashion -- she's been dropping hints and Easter eggs for days that the album was on its way.

On Nov. 22, the singer sent her army of Swifties into a frenzy by posting a moody photo with the caption, "Not a lot going on at the moment," a surefire sign in Swiftian lore that she was up to something. (Swift last posted the message ahead of Folklore.)

As it turns out, she's also been dropping references to song titles found on Evermore's 17-song track list like bread crumbs through the proverbial forest. The grayscale snap on Instagram featured a hint about lead single "Willow," thanks to the framed photo of a willow tree behind Swift on the wall. And just one day ago, she name-dropped the title of track four, "'Tis the Damn Season," in an Instagram Story promoting her new cover story for Entertainment Weekly.

Fan accounts were quick to point out even more teases and Easter eggs. "'Epiphany' is the 13th track on #folklore where Taylor pays tribute to her grandfather — while 'marjorie' is also the 13th track on her new album #evermore which is the name of her grandmother," one tweeted alongside a pair of photos of Swift's grandparents, while another highlighted a reference to throwing herself "to the base of a willow tree by a reflection pool at midnight" in a tweet on Dec. 4.

Featuring collaborations with Haim, The National and Bon Iver, Evermore is set to drop at midnight ET on Friday (Dec. 11).
