I need more acid cowboy sonics period. Body Electric and Cruel World. Give me anger!!! I know you angry!!!!!

pls ignore my lack of photoshop skills but ladies can we pls manifest this color scheme.... please

I need more guitar church songs like body electric

I want her deeper vocals back..like Summertime or BIG EYES. From LFL she started going higher and higher with a ??sweeter voice. Her voice used to be so dark and convey anguish and depth. I adore her sweet voice but 3 albums are over now. Bring back the strings and bring back the deeper vocals. Or mid range too. And more singing less talking. Nfr is my fav tho. But I want RIDE vocals. Or I CAN FLY. There was a dark richness to her deep vocals. Her higher register is too sweet/sunny. Her revenge album should include RAGE,GLASS BREAKING,SCREAMING, (TS BLANK SPACE VIDEO VIBES)

an album in the vein of Doin’ Time would be a dream. I rlly want a darker sounding album w heavy trip hop beats is the vein of Dark But Just A Game tho.

I have never had a problem with the lyrics of “Ultraviolence” (the song). I’ve always believed true art expresses the ugly and fucked up in a beautiful way so that we can understand the mindset of the individuals under less-than-desirable circumstances.

Full agree. I really miss that particular voice whenever I hear parts of BTD/P. The whole first verse of 'Ride' gives us that voice at its best, even the beginning of 'G&M.'

Manifesting RCS lighters, lyric books, and coke necklaces

But ya I feel like this album is gonna be a departure from the NFR/COTCC vibe. Even if JA is still the main producer, he's actually pretty versatile I feel--the man produced both "This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things" and "August" after all

I am probably in the minority but I hope this album's aesthetic is not candy themed. It's been done to death, most notably by Katy Perry and Lana isn't one to follow trends created by other artists and I'd be really disappointed if she did. The aesthetic is pretty much never based on the literal meaning of her album title so I'm not too concerned that she will, but ..

opening this thread, seeing every other post go back and forth between polar opposite ideas

As the days go by I’m thinking less and less that jack is going to be the sole producer of this record. He used to like all of her chemtrails related posts but didnt like anything of rcs despite being very active on ig.Also in the november igtv where she said she was recording american standards and classics w Zach Dawes she said “and bunch of other little things”. I think in the session when she did Dealer they came up with other songs that were similar to it that she would make into rcs. And I kind of feel like mike dean produced blue banisters. I wouldn’t be surprised if the new sound is very different from chemtrails I mean this is the same woman who went from UV to HM

hot take: put wayamaya on RCS

I agree with you that Chemtrails is a stall era... and the music is exactly that: a réflexion on how to do her job as a singer, for the most parts. I don’t think it was supposed to be that, in the beginning: I feel like there was supposed to be a « second part » to this record, heading into what she envisions the future will be in her life. RCS is probably that, which seems to be the reason why she wants to move fast in that era and leave Chemtrails behind. I don’t listen to this album every day either, but when I do, it sounds very good and cohesive and yet, it’s a mood and not a super light one, which spring should be about.

I really like this it reminds me of Neil's style

June 11/June 1 is giving me major "guys it's a typo she meant September 25th not 5th bc the 25th is a Friday so obviously COTCC is coming on the 25th of September" vibes...

With LDR Village, I feel like she could make some really cool merch for Rock Candy Sweet! 1. I would love if she made crystal-themed merch for each song on the album, since actual rock candy bears a striking resemblance to crystals. Maybe a necklace with a crystal pendant using an amethyst or something like that, or the actual crystals themselves. 2. And I don’t vape or smoke or anything like that, but I feel like it would totally be up her alley if she sold crystallized/bejewelled vapes in collaboration with Mi-Pod (since she owns so many of their chunky square vapes) and each variant came with a different flavoured pod, all with candied flavours (like cotton candy, for example). 3. Since there’s a beauty salon at LDR Village, I would love if her rumoured collaboration with Gucci Beauty also led to a full line of makeup sold exclusively online at LDR Village and select retailers like Sephora or Ulta. She could do an eyeshadow palette and name each shade after a song on the album, and make lipsticks named after various lyrical motifs from the album. It’s about time we have false-eyelashes and lip-liner sold by Lana. I also feel like she could sell a really cool highlighter using very on-the-nose/meta imagery for Rock Candy Sweet. so many ideas! I might have to do some mock-ups just for fun lol <3

I’m getting tired of pretending to be patient. When are we allowed to start complaining that this is the most torturous prerelease? The theories that Taylor Swift is about to drop another meticulously planned and crafted surprise album is making whatever you call this lana era seem sadder

i just really hope some effort is put into this era. chemtrails was so anti climatic to me and wasn’t worth the 6 month wait imo- there was no hype surrounding it (not even by lana), no album trailer, barely any new photo shoots and her worst album cover to date. overall i liked the album but i haven’t been in the mood to listen to it since march (besides white dress). lately she seems more in a determined mind set, one that matches the music she wants to put out so i really hope she has something up her sleeve. it seems like we’ve been in the same era since lfl ended

It’s funny, because Lana has been pandering to the critics for 2 albums now with soft little uncontroversial piano lullabies. Now she’s gonna come out with an album that has fire and revenge and a big FUCK you to critics?? I don’t buy that at all...it’s gonna be more lullabies like White Dress and Let me Love you like a women.

if a staircase in the city doesn't get stepped on, does it even exist? the bannisters? the steps?

The colapse when she deletes all the posts and keep the question for the culture. Then... Post RCS cover And tracklist With alot of snakes on it REPUTATION

the "i need more of" and "RCS should have" is driving me insane keep going

Valley of the Dolls is such a beautiful ballad. No wonder it's so hard to get into any of the L+F piano crap. This one is exceptionally powerful... Probably my favourite ballad from the entire repertoire of Marina's. Diamandis and Nowels created masterpiece.

the way Chemtrails was like the baby of AKA & Sirens.. I'm hoping RCS is like the baby of AKA & UV

bluuuuuuuuuue banisters (sung to the tune of "piiiinkk flamingoes")

One of the main things I want for RCS is for the audio to not be so quiet. Like if you go on Spotify and play any random song then switch to Lana's songs, you have to turn it up more. Idk why this is but it's annoying af. @ Jack get better microphones u cheapskate

people who haven’t been through certain hardships or even just have an open mind to all sorts of artists expressions will simply never get it lol. They lack the compassion and understanding to realize art like that is just as worthy of existing as songs and about sunshine and rainbows. They find the song appalling (which, in a way, they should) but misplace their outrage to the artist and the song, instead of the message behind it. They’re mad at Lana for making a song about abuse when they need to be mad at abuse.

Damn, serving "all black men look or sound the same"

This is probably so random coming from me, but suddenly the whole revenge-plot of Rock Candy Sweet is reminding me of: And just her delivery of those lyrics, mixed with how chaotic that song is, is truly iconic it’s really giving Dealer/Noir comparisons from last year but on a serious note and all jokes aside - I really am excited to hear how she’s going to seek revenge on this album. Brooklyn Baby, Money Power Glory, and Fucked My Way Up to The Top really explored her more vengeful sentiments regarding her place in the music industry perfectly. I cannot wait.

Manifesting two picture disc vinyl variants like the ones from the Ultraviolence boxset -

not me thinking some of that was coming out from her ears

sweet people are fucking scary when they actually get mad bc u know u did something wrong. she seems like one a' those

you know I really thought I could enjoy & contribute to one of these godless pre-release threads for once... 4 posts later & I see whatever the hell this is.... maybe I need to log out for the day

I'd rather it be on its own album of Hawaii songs. Hawaiian Tropic will be her next album after RCS

I love how she’s asking herself whether what she’s experiencing is happiness as if she cannot be sure because she has never come across it before or loving someone deeply does not promise a great relationship and happiness and she’s questioning that. Her fragility is out of this world. Love her.

More angry songs pls. I want a lana song to scream with. in my feelings Is actually great when you're angry.!!!!!

People want it because they don’t believe she’s burning out? Not sure why you think we have the worst intention. I think she’s putting out the best work of her career. Of course fans want new music that’s how it works

white dress is not a "lullaby"... just because it's not angry and a "bop" doesn't mean it's a boring, uninteresting lullaby

despite This i still get what you're asking. the label most likely paid them to feature on the song to give it buzz. normally labels try and add popular names to singles to reach a wider audience

I have the old stuff as “and the diamonds” and the new stuff just as “marina” cause honestly her newer stuff is nowhere near the quality of the first 3 records...

if it’s a yeeyee record im OUT ! keep that shit for the unreleased n*kki collab album

Can we go back to manifesting rock or hip hop, please?

she’s a witch for breaking that tradition. and for giving us a blurry iphone cover, not sure if i’ll ever get over that

Excuse me, but what "lack of photoshop skills" are you talking about?! This is amazing!!! <3 and YES - we can DEFINITELY manifest this colour scheme. These pinks + blues are a dream and the way you edited this really reminds me of Neil's pictures for Honeymoon. Absolutely gorgeous and I hope she goes in this direction visually! I also love how you did the font for the album title - it looks like those neon LED signs and I love it so much. Please share more of your artworks because I have a feeling that with enough of our collective pining after this vibe, it will come to fruition!

If the cover end up being a IGTV screenshot, I'll laugh till I choke

she's gentle and funny when she's drunk but she hasn't been drunk for 14 years, she also goes to the beach with her friends who don't know that she's crazy

Yeah ikr. Every time a song produced by Jack comes on shuffle, it sounds so quiet it's weird

she should release it on july 11th (7/11) for several reasons: it's still in the summer, it's 7/11, we can all get free 7/11 slurpees, and most importantly it's my birthday
