You guys I can't believe it but Lana smashed one of the Blue Banisters CDs at a Target and stabbed me in the neck with one of the shards I love her and everything but I almost bled to death.

tried to rank the songs and almost broke my brain

It’s true my cousin works at Target and Lana spat in her face and told her Brian Laundrie is innocent before shoplifting all the Blue Banister CDs in storage.

I'll just say it. Blue Banisters is my favorite Lana album. It feels like the curation of a poetry collection that we've never seen before and echoes her entire career, maybe even sacrifices the older versions of herself to some extent. Long gone are the visions of grandeur, Los Angeles illusions, the obsession, and what we have is a stripped Lana that's not only her most authentic but confessional. Her focus here is simple but chaotic, poetic but nonlinear. It's what you see is what you get.The songs she wrote throughout that never saw the daylight (Nectar of the Gods, Living Legend) are here and I truly believe she always wanted to release music like this. Perhaps, she knew that she would one day. So, on that note, Blue Banisters is the beginning of something really new and, as a fan who saw her in January 2013 at an intimate Soho House NY performance for the first and throughout her career (18 times), I feel extremely moved and proud of her for the steps she's taking in her music. She is a woman with grace and strength. I'm proud to say I'm a fan til this day.

Sorry (actually, I am not sorry at all), but the emails being “heydeux123@gmail.com” and “lanadeltarget@gmail.com” scream tabloid-story-being-planted-for-defamatory-and-drama-stirring-purposes.

This album really cements Lana’s legacy as a prolific artist. I can’t even imagine where she’ll go next. Everything she does is just so fascinating.

This album is so stabilizing n reassuring, and it breaks my heart for her knowing how mainstream culture doesnt really prize what she offers, this is past entertainment, this is a disarming and healing ring for the soul. Take it from her, u can have everything in this world but it can all still feel very baseless if u’ve lost yourself. What a noble journey this has turned into thank you n be well mama.

This album has such Fall energy, and i'm not just saying this because it's October Here in upstate NY, the Fall foliage has been at its peak, and now the weather is getting colder + the leaves are falling. I was listening to the album on my daily walk, and got the chills. Especially the middle songs are Fall personified through music.

I just wanted to say this, and I have nowhere else to say it: For me, Lana's music - especially Born to Die, Ultraviolence, and Honeymoon - is so nostalgic, and so evocative of my teenage years. It triggers those memories and those sensations for me in a way that nothing else does. I first discovered Lana in 2011, with the Video Games MV; I was 13 years old. I'm 23 years old now. I literally grew up with Lana and her music. I remember riding in my best friend's car when I sixteen years old, screaming the lyrics to Born to Die and Off to the Races, not really understanding what they meant back then, but, simultaneously, understanding exactly what they meant. I remember being sprawled out on my bed, drunk, listening to West Coast, feeling every inch of it in the marrow of my bones. I remember Honeymoon, and Art Deco, and The Blackest Day, and all of the things those songs made me feel. Lana was an integral part of my childhood. An integral part of my formative years. And Blue Banisters feels like the ultimate cumulation of that; it feels, in a way, like we've grown and matured together. Here I am, ten years later, an adult who's seen so much and been so through so much in the last ten years. And I just feel like Blue Banisters reflects those feelings, and that maturation, so well. I don't know. I'm drunk, and I'm probably being over-sentimental. But I can already tell that this album is going to be significant, and sentimental, to me.

It’s true, I was at target that day and Lana walked in, took a shit in isle 6 and started screaming “its ma day!” And when I asked her if I could have a picture with her she said “shut up fattie” and started break dancing. I was shaking in my boots and the authorities had to be called to remove her but when the cops got there she escaped via the toilet

It's true, I was at Target when Lana came from nowhere, kicked my balls, pantsed me and practiced the sph techniques she learnt from Nikki in front of Patty, Adele and Chuck

In support of if you lie down with me

I really like the piano on this album. It has a slightly jazzy sound and feels vety ~orhanic compared to the stale and lifeless piano on CoCC

I like y'all but this honeymoon slander is making me nauseous

If You Lie Down With Me appreciation post

why does it feel like this website is taking its final breaths

After a lot of debating and brain storming with the girlies, it’s officially a law that UV & HM are a non-debatable, non-negotiable, part of the holy trinity. If you agree, no matter which order, then you officially & legally: have taste.

I have been listening to “If I Lie Down With You”, “Black Bathing Suit”, “Dealer” and “Thunder” nonstop. Lizzy really jumped out on IILDWY, and I’ve said this so many times but Dealer is really that bitch, that’s totally in my top 10 Lana songs tbh also how can I forget Blue Banisters(song), the line “I said, ‘I’m scared of the Santa Clarita fires, I wish that it would rain’” is sung so beautifully gah, I can feel her soul in that line

Wait, that happened to you too? My older sister works at Target and told me that Lana called her "worthless scum on the bottom of her million dollar shoes" and then threw a Blue Banisters record at her face. Crazy!

the way that she literally...

Agreed. I know it has been said but wow new producers here was such a welcome change... like damn what a difference in the sound of that piano. It's amazing.

Beautiful…

all i know is that...

This whole album gives off 100% this energy. You def won't get everything on your first listen, but after the 2nd/3rd....

I am the target in subject. It was NOT lana. It was Nikki Lane, swimming in the plastic pools.

Pls

LB is working again. I thought Ben shut it down because someone shared a leak or something

I love when insiders think we care about their musical opinions. No love just leak something and do your job

highly, highly unlikely

This is my favorite album of hers and its not even out yet

Seems fake.

if you lie down with me is so fucking beautiful i can't 😭😭😭 the way she's singing just rips your heart out

the trio is her past present and future coming for revenge

Ok

This her best album since Honeymoon for me
