There has to be something really unexpected/special about this album... like she knows nobody will spoil anything this time so she's the only one who can do the real teasing as she wants (not counting Ben's nonsense)... yet she only posted a less than 10 seconds snippet and didn't even reveal the title. Even if the album wasn't as close as we think (which I still think it is, I can't see it coming later than spring) that didn't stop her from posting a million snippets from NFR, the TJF snippet before having a real date or 3 singles months before the album. There has to be something... Plus BOZ going crazy for you about the album. I know insiders tend to have questionable taste but I feel like praise is often a better indicator about the quality than hate. I can't contain my excitement

I don't care if Pitchfork, or Anthony Fantano, or any other music critic doesn't like the album, people having been misunderstanding, underestimating, and criticizing Lana for no reason since day 1, we all know she's incredibly artistic and talented and some people just simply can't recognize that because they can't shake off the inaccurate ideas they have of her

@xxmissdaytonaxx you inspired me Legend Lana Del Rey's highly anticipated 9th/10th studio album titled "Waist Deep In Icy Waves" is finally on the horizon. "Out March 10th 2023" it says at the end of an stunning album trailer, which also includes her last two records , both released in 2021. But this album is different then what we've heard from Lana Del Rey over the past 3 years. It's reminiscent of " Honeymoon " ,it contains elements which are reminiscent of "Ultraviolence ". The dramatic, epic closer "The 13th Beach" is a direct reference to a song from "Lust For Life" & her screaming vocals from songs like "Dealer" create a familiar feeling, kinda like it's a children of all her albums yet this album has its very unique, own, brandnew spin and adds something new and refreshing to her discography. It's Lana Del Rey at her best .The use of orchestra ,flute, synths and sound effects (waves ,wind noises, noises that sound like drowning siren etc.) create an album that feels like a cold, foggy day on the beach where you sit alone and dream of a different life, were you think about all the shit you went through and were you wish for more color in your life but everything is dipped in black and white. Sometimes it even feels very spacey and dark . But there are also dots of fire in this icy dark world, which you can find on songs like "The Drama'" , "Dragons Near California " and "Long Nails On Your Back (ft. Father John Misty)". Angry lyrics , screaming vocals but also lust & sexiness, all represented by dope ass beats , wild electric guitar riffs or jazzy & bluesy arrangements which makes you want to strip on a pole. When you think the ocean is quiet and calm there is another storm brewing on the horizon and it hits you hard. It pulls you into the ocean, which is symbolic for Lanas mind. She is wild and wavering as the ocean. This is how you could describe what it feels like to listen to this body of art and it feels all very well put together. Get ready to cry , to scream or to grind on the bedroom floor, get ready for a adventurous, emotional boat ride through Lanas mind. Lead single "Late Nights " & pre order out on January 7th 2023

Lana Del Rey's 9th studio album, "The Departure", is set to be released February 2023. She explores a sultry, sexy, jazz-influenced sound hidden behind angry lyricism and sometimes screaming vocals. She harkens back to her days of "Ultraviolence" and "Honeymoon", but with a more mature tone. Father John Misty also makes an appearance on the track Discrete Night Calls, a seemingly "sister" track to her predecessor, Dealer. "The Departure" is not a fairwell, but an invitation to something greater. Pre-order out this December.

she’s never been this silent before it’s weird

I'm really curious if the automatic writing/singing & the album being wordy leads to having more bridges again. While I personally enjoyed the last three albums I'm really sad about the lack of bridges. I know I said that probably a good amount of times already but I hope and manifest some bridges. She mentioned orchestra in the W magazine and getting orchestra back and alot of bridges would be a dream Also still hoping for some electric guitar as well and some harps, bells, flutes,saxophones and cello to make the orchestral vibes complete I'm really curious about the sonic landscape and I do believe she teased the 10 second of Rockefeller with the dark piano on purpose to keep the sound of the album a remaining mystery I probably said all of this already but it's so dry right now even the sahara desert is shook & I can't stop thinking about this goddamn album so I keep thinking about the same things. If we won't get news in the next two months get ready to read all of this again

Ben shutting up all the insiders this era cause he wants all the attention for himself with his “New album coming soon 😜🚀” posts

we're pretty insane for keeping this thread alive and trending for the past week with literally no official news. i love us. keep this energy up!!

I honestly think that everyone is going to like this album. It's going to defy expectations and unite the world in awe

I’m glad insiders are being quiet because I know Lana has always wanted to do a surprise release, but at the same times this silence is deafening and ‘soon 😍🌹🚀” is getting so tiring.

"it's coming you little bitch" revival when?

she'll announce by sending a massive flock of pigeons to deliver a typewritten note to every single lipster saying "the album is coming soon u little fuckers"

Can’t believe she is surprise releasing her album tonight. This is surreal.

nah

I really dislike Fantano, not only does he misunderstand and unnecessarily criticize Lana, but he's also awful with reviews of other artists. I think he just tries to be different most of the time.

ever since he trashed ultraviolence, his opinions became completely irrelevant

ben 😍🚀 when he lies:

Honeymoon account most likely a snippet with ‘coming soon new song from my beautiful record xxxxx xxxx xxx ♥️♥️‘

does this mean what I think it means…??

The mistery around this album is unreal.

I blame Ben for everything Maybe Lana wanted to surprise us but he constantly killing the vibe with his rocket emojis and nevercoming soon's

Imagine if Lana is reading this thread. She’d probably thinking “why are you all so mentally ill?”

it's actually so good to see the insiders being quiet about the album, makes me think that her team is finally taking care of the upcoming stuff

let’s hope she covers snow on the beach

A cute christmas cover would be nice

plus, her producers definitely have the album on back up. there's no way they don't. so, i don't foresee the album really being delayed by much, if at all.

I also thought about that but she was still kinda secretive about the whole thing before it happened (only vague comments about the new songs she had on the livestream and the W Magazine interview without much details other than general statements about an "untitled album"). She also posted the Rockefeller snippet after it happened and told us she was still confident in the record so she actually talked more about the album after the incident than before

I miss Ajay whatever happened to her

Your mom??? I remember her being a psychic. She should join in on the witchy fun

…Lana will post a vegan turkey tutorial with Chuck (an announcement would be nice however)

If we don’t hear any news in December I’m gonna be so agitated

whoever @Selfloathinpoet slept with, it was not the right insider

I wonder how she will announce ? on honeymoon? or on a billboard in a city ? or radio interview? so curious & nervous for whenever the day comes ! (hoping she gets all her images/videos done for the record before announcing anything)

i rebuke that, impossible

I love reading all of your concepts for the album so much.. it pains me to know they're probably better than what we'll actually get

this exam season and lack of ldrx news mixed together is kinda killing me...lana save the day pls

Wake me up when 2022 ends , I already wanna be in 2023 aka the year of LDR9

so crazy to think she's talking about this album for almost a year and we know barely nothing about it it's kinda exciting at the same time tho

i declare an announcement coming december 4th... exactly 1 YEAR after the DNC jacket plus it's a sunday she loves randomly announcing things on sundays

What if someone had asked Picasso not to be sad?

I really want to think like you about Lana being silent etc, but I feel like the laptop theft is the cause of all of this

oh please please please lord 🙏 sultry and sexy and jazzy lana is what we need

Let’s be delusional, we have nothing to lose, we have nothing to gain, nothing to desire anymore– except to make our lives into a mental institution

We'll have to check her Spotify page constantly cause if it wasn't for insiders we would have missed the triple singles cause she didn't even post about them on release And when she posted about them she just deleted it shortly after ???

I think the main thing that gives me hope for Neil’s “soon” comment is the fact that people seem to have already heard the record. Also, Lana’s team seems to have become very attentive to insiders and any leaked information. Of course, this may be due to the theft, but it seems like insiders have been quiet prior to this (not to mention BoZ liking and later unliking the tweet about him being silenced). We’ll see

If she does surprise drop a trailer, I hope it gives us the same hype that the COCC music video teaser did! I will never forget everyone desperately trying to hear the lyrics from the brief clip

Waiting for the 111 exclusive info post

I feel like we can all be sure it’s coming at the top of next year so that’s something to look forward to and probably first single and preorder before the year ends. 🤞🏼
