The Siren

Was bored so I decided to make some album concept art for ​Chemtrails Over the Country Club. When I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do, Neil Krug's tennis court photo immediately came to mind. So I based by concept art around that and then used some UV Lana shots, also by Neil. Obviously the layout of the front and back covers are BTD inspired. Tracklist is a mix of song titles Lana has mentioned, her voice notes, her poetry, and a couple I made up. Overall, I love how this came out and it was really just something fun for me to do to pass time. I have larger, more HQ versions if anyone wants them. For whatever reason some look LQ. Hope you guys like it! 
 

 

 

 

Dragging this thread back up from the dead to post this super simple Honeymoon cover / Lana edit I made this morning. 
 

I wanted to post this new cover I made for SOTW and figured I'd just make a general thread for all my Lana covers to put new ones as I make them. I'll include some of my previous work in a spoiler below as well.

Guys, if I made one or several sticker packs, for example one sticker per album, or one per song per album, and had them printed professionally, how would you feel about purchasing some? I already have this illus sticker I still have a stack of but I was looking for one for my computer on Etsy and I haven't found any I liked yet... But it seems to be working pretty well... If I made some, they would be super graphic probably. And typographic. Idk I just want to work on something fun but if someone enjoys it to the point of wanting to purchase it, I wouldn't be against it you know? I was thinking of like vintage designs inspired stuff super simple but effective

Sorry for bumping again - I just tried, and honestly sis...
 

 
My 2 cents: I think it looks cool as FUCK but also more ghostly like than fiery, I don't quite know what to make of it  Overall I think I still prefer the Califires colourway! 

(Just gonna make this thread to keep things separated from my traditional art thread even though I doubt I'll update it often)
A digital doodle of Lana for Vogue Italia, 2012

This project started a few years back when @evilentity showed me this incredibly beautiful picture of the cover a brochure for the city of Tropico, in the county of Los Angeles. I was immediately stricken by the type and it became the basis for my concept. I wish I had made this logo, but it is not mine, I just remade it, all credit where credit is due  

 
Please check out the whole project on Behance and give it a view or even a thumbs up if you like it, it means the absolute world to me! Thank you so much for watching  I think I'm going to add a DVD as well  And all constructive criticism warmly appreciated please! 
 
Selected pictures, in random order - all pictures are on Behance:
 

Stream the 2013 EP Doveman studio version of this song if you haven't already, it's so much better.
 
Also, you shouldn't have the Sirens concept tagged as a worktape. A worktape is a term usually used for a homemade phone/laptop recording which is shown to producers for reference, like the leaked file of Half Hearted. The leaked version of Sirens is studio-recorded and produced. 

I'd suggest these (my favourites I think)
Cry Baby era:
Ring Pop Cooties Mistakes Psycho Lovers Night Mime Coloring Book Zzzz Arts & Crafts Schizo 99c Store Run Trophy Wife Bones Are Blue Rough Love Rocking Horse Bombs on Monday Seesaw K-12 era:
AK-47 (not an outtake from the album, but made around those dates) Eraser Gluestick

Thank you so much for the suggestions . I'll let you guys know my opinion when I listen to them all but I'm sure I'll love them based on the comments.

In terms of suggestions on recent leaks, all in alphabetical order:
 
Cry Baby era leaks:
Arts & Crafts - It has a darker Cry Baby vibe, and is pretty catchy! Coloring Book - It's pretty much the summary of the Cry Baby era with tons of references to the album as a whole. It's also pretty uniquely structured and produced in regards to typical Melanie songs.  Cooties - A cute love song, kind of in the same vein as Training Wheels being a childish take on love. Dressed in Mistakes - My personal favorite of all the recent leaks, it has an infectious melody with an instrumental that complements it very well. Jumprope - If you were a Melanie stan since 2014, then you probably know about this one as its been registered for so long. It has the same sort of darker vibe as Arts & Crafts does while still maintaining the child-like outlook. The chorus is a bit cringey but it's a good listen anyways! Rocking Horse - It's the kind of song that is heartbreaking thematically, but has an instrumental distracting enough to make it seem happy. This is another one that is going to get stuck in your head after the first listen!  Seesaw - We don't have many piano ballads from Melanie which makes this song feel so much more raw. The piano really makes it stand out and paired with the writing, it's a song you don't want to miss out on hearing.  Trophy Wife - I don't see many people talking about this one, but it's another one of my favorites. I guess people tend to overlook it since it doesn't entirely sound like Cry Baby (The Michael Keenan Curse) but its always stuck in my head and I find it to be a gem in Mel's unreleased. Zzzz - To me, this song and Coloring Book are the yin to each other's yang. Where one might open the Cry Baby album, the other would most definitely be the closer. It's a shame neither ended up on the final tracklist, but I'd rather have neither than only one.  
K-12 era leaks:
Eraser - While we don't have many K-12 outtakes (even now,) this is one I know would've been an amazing addition to the final tracklist. I find it 100x better than... SOME.... songs that ended up on it.  Gluestick - I will forever be in mourning of Gluestick and Eraser... this song especially has such a cinematic appeal to it, and I don't mean cinematic as in strings, but in that you could literally feel and see the scene that it would fit into to. These two songs are both relics of a hip-hop sound that Melanie decided to scrap for K-12. Papercut - I mention this one since you can't have the previous two without this one. The lyrics are a little... hastily written, but the instrumental is again very hip-hop sounding that we don't see much of anywhere else.   
After School era leaks:
History - Just putting this here since it's the only After School leak as of yet. I don't really care for it but I know a lot of people like it!  
 
I chose songs that were more conceptualized, alongside my own personal favorites. There are a LOT more than I mentioned, so make sure to get a masterpost of the leaks when you're listening!
 
And about MM3, with some leaks in the recent months, we can gather that this album is more reminiscent of After School tracks with new and surprising elements! I'm more than positive in a fantastic end product whenever it's out. Also yes, another film will accompany this release! A sequel to K-12.

listen to History and Gluestick!!!

I can't believe Where Do Babies Come From finally leaked in full and I'm just finding out now wow. I was a huge fan back in the DollhouseEP/Cry Baby times (still kinda am cause I still tune in for every new release but I don't keep in touch anymore with news and leaks) and I saw there are like 20+ new unreleased songs. I'm going to have a field day with that. 
What unreleased songs should I absolutely listen to? I'll get to them all eventually but I could use some suggestions .
 
Also do we know something about MM3? I'm curious about what direction and concept she's going for this time. I hope it's similar to the last EP cause I honestly loved her new evolved sound. The only thing I know about the new album is that she wanted to make another film for it right?

stream glued and remember to eat a meal love u thank u

All the Mad Hatter bts leaks, *loves it*

The way AKA, BTD, UV, HM, LFL, NFR, COCC and BB are all so different because they are DIFFERENT eras (and different moments in Lana's life) but also they share SOME similarities because is the SAME person behind them
