Singer-songwriter Taylor Swift offered a taste of the visuals from her new album Midnights, and her fans are already noticing the parallels to her past.

Although Swift released Midnights on Friday, she teased parts of the music videos for the album during a Thursday Night Football broadcast.

Swift, who worked with All Too Well: The Short Film cinematographer Rina Yang on the videos, could be seen puffing out a purple cloud of smoke in the shape of a clock, wearing jewelry-laden dresses and attempting to smash a guitar in the teaser.

The visuals star a number of celebs, including actor Laura Dern , musicians the Haim sisters and model Laith Ashley .

Watch the teaser below:

Swifties worldwide, including Twitter user @ThrowbackTaylor, were quick to find moments in the teaser that appeared to allude to the singers past visuals and music. This included an apparent reference to Swifts song The Archer, a shot of a castle that seemingly goes back to her video for Love Story and a colorful ensemble akin to looks from Swifts Lover era.

Others, including Twitter user @TSwiftNZ, pointed to a koi fish guitar Swift previously used and a hooded look that was similar to the garb she wore in the video for ...Ready For It?

The visuals from the Midnights teaser arent the only thing fans think is tying the new album to Swifts past. Twitter account @ThrowbackTaylor put lyrics from past Swift songs up against tracks from the new album and the new records including Anti-Hero and Sweet Nothing to reveal similar themes.

In a Twitter thread posted early Friday morning, Swift thanked her collaborators, including Jack Antonoff , Lana Del Rey and Zo Kravitz .

Midnights is a collage of intensity, highs and lows and ebbs and flows, Swift wrote. Life can be dark, starry, cloudy, terrifying, electrifying, hot, cold, romantic or lonely. Just like Midnights. Which is out now.
