BBM Baby

I'm so scared for the album art omg she better not use that ugly albert enstein font from the trailer

jimmy neutron teas

Oh, also kind of reminds me of this -

Ultraviolence / Lust for Life
 

If there isn't a 12" boxset of this I will Anne

I hate the border. It's stylistically unappealing and takes away from the actual image itself. Rule of thirds and zooming out would improve this cover so much.
 
Like I get what they were going for but it was executed better here:
 

 
Just my two cents.
 
 
 

wonder how far "explicit" will go
 
 
"murder my pussy without the gunshot, just shoot me up my asscrack with a cumshot"

i went to a Lanas Pages on facebook and see so many bad things about the cover.. Its a shame.. She make everything for us.. She dont need money, charts or arwards.. Everything she do are for make our life happy.. And the fans drag her so bad.. =( Its a shame, terrible
 

it makes me so sad how rude you all are about lana's sister

you were so obsessed with seeing depressed miss american beauty
after nothing in a while, you hate to see her smile... baby thats a shaaaame

No news for a long time
 
Lana releases album cover
 
Everyone complains about her eyebrows and smile

Halsey was found dead drowning inside her hopeless piss fountain at 5:35pm GMT on the 11th of April 2017

We can skip that one

The only good thing about a BTD 2.0 is that we can now expect an UV 2.0

in conclusion, it's Chuck paying homage to the legendary Nicole Nodland  

Strap in kiddos, here's my graham4anything style analysis of the covers BTD and LFL.
 
BtD vs LfL Cover Analysis
 
Album Titles
As it's been discussed previously, Lust for Life is probably a play on Born to Die. Both titles feature a verb (if you take "lust" to be an imperative verb rather than a noun), its preposition, and the object of that preposition. Born in order to Die. Lusting in pursuit of Life. There is also a clear semantic contrast between "die" and "life". They're opposites and highlight an opposing focus to ones ideological outlook on life- Am I living just to die, so that my focus is on death? Or am I living for the sake of life, so that my focus in on life? These contrasts probably inform us a bit about the direction Lana is going to take in this album.
 
Covers in Comparison
A few comparisons can be made which lead me to believe that the LFL cover is an intentional harkening to the BTD cover. They both feature Lana standing forward, facing and looking into the camera, in front of a car. Other users here have pointed out that the car appears to be a similar kind to the one on the BTD cover. In both covers she takes up about the same amount of space. Both covers also feature a similar color scheme, with Lana in white, against a blue background. To me these similarities make it clear that she is trying to evoke BTD for a purpose which we will further explore.
 
Covers in Contrast
 
Styling
In the BTD cover, we see Lana in a clean, buttoned up white blouse, perfectly styled hair, large earrings and reddened lips. These details give Lana a clean, manicured look. In contrast, the LFL cover features a lace dress, a more neutral lip, and daisies in the hair, which are placed asymmetrically. This creates a less crisp look, more organic and inviting, less cool and composed. Besides the daisies, the LFL cover features no ornamentation either (like jewelry). In contrast with the large shining earrings on the BTD cover, this would signal a turn away from opulence (which hasn't really been a theme since UV).
 
Lighting
In the BTD cover, the photographer relied on natural lighting for the shoot. Natural lighting creates heavier shadows, putting a good portion of Lanas face in shadow. A shadowed face appears more mysterious. In contrast, on the LFL cover Lana's face has been fully illuminated, and there is little shadowing anywhere on her face. This makes her appear less mysterious, more open, more "transparent" (perhaps a response to years of journalists badgering about "the MYSTERY of lana del rey").
 
Font
The BTD cover makes use of what we've come to know as "her" font, the tall, unadorned, statuesque trademark font. The font is very utilitarian- it has no flourishes at all. It appears cold and uninviting. Contrast with the LFL font which is full of flourishes and personality. This adds a more personal touch to the cover, and makes it appear more genuine and inviting.
 
Tone
In the BTD cover, Lana looks directly into the camera, impressively unexpressive. There is no indication of emotion on her face, so we rely on other cues to determine the tone of the cover- the heavy shadows, the tight styling, etc. On the LFL cover, Lana looks right into the camera and smiles. This very obvious indicator of emotion causes us to look to her to determine the tone of the cover- which would appear to be a happy one.
 
In Conclusion
The comparisons between these covers give us the impression of an evocation of a previous era, but more importantly, the contrasts inform us as to what this evocation means. I believe that Lana intends to give us an album that is antithetical to Born to Die, with an emphasis on life rather than death, on purpose versus futility. Styling and tone choices lead me to believe that this album will attempt to be more genuine, less manicured, and more approachable than previous works.
 
Why the border?
My theory on the border is that it's supposed to look like a polaroid or like we're looking into a television screen, but I'm honestly not sure.

seems like some of y'all wanted a picture of Lana in a black witch costume glaring whilst stirring a cauldron and perched on a broomstick in outer space
 
as for the cover - I think I'm going to really like it - I love how she's so happy in it and I didnt have the immediate visceral reaction of disgust that I did with the HM cover
 
also I love the use of her vintage LDR logo - im relieved she didn't use the shit font that was in the Love cover

em, cud u bouy me lots of them shiny ones? th ones that yu moght see on th queen, yeah? nice innit 
god save the queen, daddy

uhm.. can chuck and neil like not use cameras from 1936 for once. album shoot being good is cancelled.

"I just remember, like, being 11 years old and hearing Heart Shaped Box on TV for the first time and, like, the pairing of the guitars with Kurt's voice, kind of invoking the imagery of this West Coast-influenced, underground jazz scene, you know, and just being really struck by it. It was really my first introduction to jazz. But, like, an angrier jazz, I guess."

I truly don't understand how people could hate Terrence Loves You... it's one of her best songs she's ever made. Also, something to look forward to with LFL is she has already confirmed the lyrics are centered around politics and life so regardless of the sound (which she's never repeated a sound from record to record before, and we have already been told by Ben that the sound is much different from Honeymoon) we are getting fresh lyrics no matter what. It will be interesting to see Lana write about all new ideas & themes. It has potential to be one of her best albums lyrically, something we've never heard before.

I want LFL to have incredible thought provoking lyrics. Idk how some of y'all say Love is a lyrical masterpiece, a 12 year old girl could have written that.

So no tattoo?
