madonna's photographer just started following lana and mike dean

i'm feeling a touch of psychedelia. some heavy guitars. some heavy synths. soft perfect drums... not overly abrasive. perfectly blended. like a classic white milkshake. title track is dreamy, slow, honeymoon-esque, with a rougher twist. the rock and heaviness of ultraviolence and the beats, atmosphere, and smoothness of honeymoon. the western vibes of chemtrails. and a little baby voice to top it off

got bored. the vinyl will be gold

girls i did something

Just to further debunk this, here's the original photo of Lana taken backstage during her Chula Vista, CA date of her Endless Summer Tour on May 16, 2015 -

and here’s the vibe I got from the Blue Banisters snippet and title! Definitely a different mood than what I initially expected when she announced RCS lol

MANIFEST WITH ME!!!!!! NEW SINGLE NEXT WEEK!!! BLUE BANISTERS IS CUMMING!

won't be long until we see rock candy snippets on dbree!

boz better come thru

Manifesting for May 18th - “BLUE BANISTERS out JULY 4th Made with @therealmikedean @zachary_dawes @jackantonoff Cover shot by @nadialeelee“

This moment in the pre-release reminds me of this exact time 6 years ago, when the rumour was that the lead single of Honeymoon was called “Regina Sunset” and then one of the models in the MTWBT video posted BTS pics saying the song was coming out in June, and the fake tracklists included Yes to Heaven, Fine China, and a song called White Tiger. And then she shook everyone to the core by singing an a cappella verse of Honeymoon on the last date of the Endless Summer tour and included the lyrics in the lyric books at the merch stand and it was just such a fun time! I’m really feeling a similar type of anticipation to this album because we already know it’s going to be so different

The longer the pre-pre-release, the dumber the hottakes ...

listened to SOC and VB really high last night lol I hope she'll have more long 'take you on a journey' songs like them on BB <3

If people are starting to fake things, it means it's happening soon!

I've moved 145 posts made in the past 19 hours to a different thread. Please, try to stay on topic! Feel free to @ a user to continue the discussion in a more appropriate thread. You can also click on the + button next to "quote" and the quote will be saved even if you go to a different thread. I'll have to continue going through the pages and move posts, so, I ask you once again to only discuss Blue Banisters in this thread and its development. Discussions about how much you like or dislike Jack Antonoff's production, or how indifferent you are, doesn't belong in here. Neither does discussing your dream collaborations. Also, Madonna is a legendary queen and that's that on that!

this is so boring

For an album that's supposed to be coming out on July 4th, things are way too quiet

I have A really strong feeling about this record lyrically. if you watch the question for the culture response video she says she’s on her journey to tell her story and sometimes it might get rocky like this along the way. Blue banisters is going to be a major part of telling her story as she’s teased with the caption. So this record’s lyrics will be very specific-kind of like White Dress, very narrative, explaining her life experiences and her story. And she said White Dress was her being on the brink of something. Over the recent years albums her lyrics and titles have been getting more specific and relating to her unique life story. This might be what BOZ was so surprised about. So she probably won’t say anything controversial but more just storytelling and detailing her past and future. I mean just listening from the snippet BB is a pretty unique song lyrically.

Rock candy sweet sounds so much beter as an album title...i hope she keeps it and blue banisters is just the lead ? as a name it sounds so boring

thanks and i hate to continue to be off topic... (now realize i could've quoted you in a diff topic, sorry!) but i feel like discussing collabs does belong here? we can discuss what collabs we might or might not want to see. it's the same as wishing for a certain producer, certain aesthetic, etc etc. idk just a thought on topic, i dont think that promo is real

That being said, I'm really excited for this album, or this track if Lana and Mike have only collaborated for one song. I really hope they've enjoyed spending time together in the studio and created something magical. Can't wait for the single to drop, I hope it's next week like the rumor says.

I started this when we thought Rock Candy Sweet was still the album title, but thought I’d finish it to reflect Blue Banisters lol. I had something different for Lana in mind when doing this! Kind of Travis Scott-inspired.

Apparently someone on ATRL (I guess they’re an insider?) said there is no Madonna collab at all. Take that as you may, just sharing what’s going on over there lol. No idea how reliable this person is or if it’s just an educated guess (my educated guess would also be that there is no collab with those two also so ??‍♂️)

regarding the news about madonna’s photographer i saw multiple madge stans say he has been following her for years so probably false alarm and there’s no collab with her. today’s the 20th day no? will she finally say something album related today/sunday ?

So yesterday I received my order from the first drop, but today I also received the LDR Village PR Box that they had sent me! (For those unaware, the director of LDR Village reached out to me awhile ago to do some promotion for LDR Village, and LanaBoards was the sole announcer of the LDR Village pop-up event a Melrose Trading Post) As a thank you, they sent me their PR Box with some goodies inside! I thought I'd attach some pictures of the box, as it's super cute. I've very grateful that they sent me this! x

thank u! at first i had zero expectations.. she's so hard to read but the whole mike dean thing has me hyped! I'm just excited that she's trying something new and i'm maintaining peace and patience all the while!

Today is my birthday and I want Lana to tweet some news about the album, how delusional am I?

idk much about madonna but i think she used to be really controversial, she also followed lana right after qftc lets hope for some controversial collab on qftc anniversary

happy one year of how I'm feeling now besties

I can totally see Lana having a track called: Wedding Vows. What we want: Sexy lyrics/trap beats and her singing that she married the devil, and then sold her soul to the devil for fame. But she got it back because the beast thought she was too much like poison ivy. What we get: a soft piano with no real production singing about how in love she is with Clay. Seriously though, we really need some info on this future serve of an album.

We all knew that it wouldn't be released in July lol but we better get the title track soon! Listening to the snippet again and I really need that lol. Excited for her and Mike working together. Def think it will be nice to have things shaken up a bit. I really don't know what to expect, it is exciting. Not necessarily expecting some huge turn but I am def anticipating a fuller sound and maybe more personal somewhat provocative subject matter. We will see, currently resigned to not receive BB before September. I would certainly love to be proven wrong though!

if it weren't for madonna all your guys' faves wouldn't even be here she's an actual legend if lana released an album in the same sexual vein/energy of madonna's masterpiece erotica i'd die (but ik it'll never happen )

Thought I'd make a mockup

lanadelrey outshining Lana Del Rey in the DIY album cover department we love to see it

this is... interesting do we think we’re getting a deluxe??

if she decides to post on QFTC anniversary with any amount of sassiness or reference towards that trainfire of a timeperiod and doesn't just post the damn cover and tracklist and go salvatore is gonna lose it

everytime. everytime there's a profound vacuum in this thread. I imagine myself sitting by some hillside cliff. watching the airy soup of misinfo slip us by. and before my multistep conclusion posts are thrown and dispersed into the fire I think to myself, well. those were pages well spent. but also. I look to the flower moon and her promises of may, and the banisters she'd paint. and the metaphoric bottleneck choking of this thread and how we should all be set free. where. where is the news? and if banisters, contemplative. does that mean us on the stoop like the neighborhood kids. we are just beans in a pool like that one random post. we should be free. we will. we shall. through the fog, the mist will clear. and maybe even give us glimpses of rainbows from the sun's rays. and the insiders, like baby vampire badger moles in their troughs, with treasures only they can keep, wish they can feel springtime's first kiss of sun as we do in the music. for their backs must be heavy, and their diction hazed. cheers to us banister boards. the adventure is only beginning to dawn. but until then. til. til then. we ride like drunken nomads hunting for jewels of concrete truth. til. reborn. with a new vinyl on our shelves. swooning w new fondness and bridges for our dreams.

See I'd love to think this too but then there's the cover for LMLYLAW that she released she thought that was gud I won't even start with her published author selfie photo for Violet lol BUT here's to hoping!! Whatever style she opts for, I just hope it's big and bold and very Lana

This is why I think "Blue Banisters" or "Rock Candy Sweet" are not the name of the next album. Lana has announced the album twice with different covers and different names but, both times she seems to be joking about it. She knew people would talk about how awful the cover is and she used that as a marketing strategy (not even the dates sound realistic) The first time she mentioned it was right after dragging a magazine for having criticized her and the second time it was out of nowhere with the same cover photo but with a different edition, this along with a few seconds of the song "Blue Banisters" In my opinion BB or RCS will not be the name of the album and she has only used them to promote it and get people talking about it. adding to this that Mike seems to be very quiet about it without giving any details other than an overview of what the album will sound like. As a final point BB does not sound like an album name in my opinion, I feel that it is nothing related or of the quality of "Lana Del Rey" except for the fact that it has the word blue that seems to be a "never missing" in the discography of Lana Del Rey.

ugh wow you really ate them up

Oh god it's happening

5 second google search

This looks gorgeous but its totally fake, like if you're gonna fake a date then at least make it a Friday

? Announcement on May 18th, lead single on May 21st ?

Is it too much to ask for another Freak? I've been obsessed with that one specifically all day long we could slow dance to rock music...

Just listened to Roses Bloom For You per mentions in this thread and omg I literally NEED her to release this in Blue Banisters. It’s such a gorgeous melody. She has so many great unreleased songs, it’s actually painful. How did I miss this gem???

a year ago we got visions & Party4u

wait maybe they're shooting something from GUCCI together, because madonna's posting some pics wearing it, QUEEN OF ALTERNATIVE x GUCCI BEAUTY x QUEEN OF POP coming?

Hmm looks fake to me
