I know nothing about U2 tbh, but that's an interesting way to get a darker voice? I would of assumed he could take some kind of vocal lessons maybe, but I don't know I guess! And yeah, Lana probably smokes for the A E S T H E T I C tbh.... I mean it's her life but still, it's gross and as lustforlife said - it can negatively effect your vocal chords! I had a boyfriend who used to smoke and I tried it and it was GROSS and he said you have to get past the bad taste before it "gets good"? But I don't get why anyone would force themselves through that gross taste and smell and the way your mouth feels like trash for ages after smoking just so they can increase their chances of cancer? I mean, live ur life however you want but I'll never understand it....

For real though I never understand why singers would smoke?? Like surely they know it isn't good for their vocal chords?

I think a lot of people took a break from here because of the amount of drama and negativity that filled this thread after the whole "21st July fam" mess? Reading through it all wasn't a particularly pleasant experience so I don't blame all those that skipped those pages or decided to take a little break from LanaBoards! But as soon as Lana says anything else about the album or the next bit of news surfaces this place will be flooded once more! (Honestly, I'm just glad this place seems to be swinging back towards a happier positive atmosphere haha!!)

I think she means the standard edition will be 18 tracks because she said she couldn't leave any songs out and deluxe tracks are usually songs that didn't make the final tracklist but get added on as bonus tracks? So I imagine standard will be 18 and we may not get a deluxe unless her label persuade her haha! But yes, this announcement of an 18 track album seems to have put everyone back in a happier mood which is good! I hated seeing everyone so down and stressed!

I've loved everything she's released so far, I'm really loving this era!! I'm also very glad this thread seems to be swinging toward positivity once more, it got real dark in here for a while...

18 tracks of an album with a sound that "jumps around a lot" I C O N I C I am so hyped for this!!!

Cherry is definitely looking like a contender for my fave song off the album! Can't wait to be able to compare it to the full album!

How sweet! I'm glad you are enjoying the forum, there's always room here for Lana fans! Good luck with the studying!

I hate that I missed watching it live but just caught up now and omg she looks so GOOD! I don't care what anyone else says her dress and that cute headband were adorable! Love her dancers and their lil choreography too, I think they're a wonderful addition to the LDR stage experience tbh? The idea of a LFL tour is great, I can't wait to learn more about that!!! I'M READY FOR U TO DESTROY ME WITH LIVE MUSIC LANA!!

Adina Porter has been spotted filming for Season 7!! I'm really happy she's back, I thought she was amazing last season! Can't wait to find out who else is returning! (Praying Lily Rabe returns too!!!)

I don't get how after one tweet people are suddenly saying Lana has lost her passion for music and no longer cares about her fans etc.... I hope y'all are just being dramatic atm because I honestly don't understand why suddenly some people think she's lost her passion? I don't feel like anything has changed, and I still love Lana a lot, but maybe I missed something? I don't mean how people feel about Ben, I don't care about him, I mean it seems that some people are losing faith in Lana for some reason? And I don't know why all of a sudden after that one "July 21st fam" tweet things just fell apart here? IDK, this whole drama on here has made me really sad. I hate when everyone is at each other's throats and arguing like this! Hope it's all just ppl being emotional/dramatic/extra atm and that there's no real hard feelings? I hope everyone is okay

When did this place get so hostile?

I'm really excited that more songs are being added! Yay for more new music!! And since Ben said "adding" and didn't say she was changing the tracklist that seems to suggest she is just adding new songs and not replacing any of the ones already on there? Lol, we'll probably never know though

"SOON" not you too gurl

I was totally one of those people! I was praying for a creepy alien story set on an isolated farm house! The setting for Roanoke, like the house in the middle of the woods, to me would be perfect for an alien story! Maybe add in a few ppl camping out in the woods if they're looking for more casting options than the occupants of the house etc? #JusticeForAnAlienThemedSeason indeed!!

Yeah I think if the aliens were the main focus/main source of horror then it could make for a season that is actually scary! In season 2 they were in there on top of all the other horror stuff, I'd love to see a season primarily concerned with some kind of extraterrestrial horror! I feel like they could pull it off if they go into writing it with the right intentions?

Yeah aliens are very intriguing, I'd love to see that return for a season I think it could be REALLY creepy if done right!

AGREE yes, Hotel was stunning! The set design and cinematography was very well done! But yeah, Freakshow is for sure my least favourite season! I feel like Ryan Murphy is good at setting up interesting plots but he doesn't seem as good at ending them successfully without resorting to the cheap "lets just kill everyone" tactic? Personally, I haven't loved an entire season since the first two, and I'd love for Season 7 to change that but I'm not hopeful? They have such amazing talent in the cast as well, and some really great moments, I just want a whole season that gives the cast something great to work with and keeps the audience hooked and on edge from beginning to end, you know?

Yeah Billie Lourd is the thing I'm most excited for too, so far this season sounds so blah... of course if they announce Lily Rabe's return I'll be a little more excited because I love her... But I don't have high hopes for this season at all! I just wish they'd do a season that doesn't try to be clever or edgy, just go all in on the HORROR that's all I want

That insta video she posted of her behind the scenes in a car for a video with Rich Lee gives me hope there will be a video for BAR because of the reference to driving in the lyrics?

Just think of the album as a reward for all your hard work! Good luck in your exams btw!!

At least we have some new interviews upcoming, we should hopefully find out more track titles in them if Lana keeps up the way she's been going recently with her interviews!

I agree with you on the KROQ thing, I don't understand why that information was withheld, that's a valid question it doesn't make sense? But then again, we don't have all the information so we'll probably never know why it was edited out which - yeah - it's a mess, but at least we know now it's the 21st of July?

It doesn't matter how old I am or how "technologically able" I am, don't try to condescend me. The fact is a magazine said the album would be out 21st of July after interviewing her, it's your own faults that you didn't believe it and then harassed Ben on Insta (collective 'you', I'm not saying you specifically were involved btw) and kept demanding to know when the release date was even though she'd said it. I just don't see what else that date could refer to? I'm not saying I agree with her way of announcing it at all, I would obviously much prefer her to make an actual announcement on an insta post or a clearer tweet of "Lust For life - out 21st July" but that didn't happen, and I can understand if she was feeling pissy at us because things were getting wild with people calling record stores and spamming Ben and Lana and probably others.... It's done now, 21st of July is the date, confirmed, there's no use clinging to the denial that she was hacked or that this is a red herring. If it was going to be a surprise release she wouldn't have released two singles, two music videos, posters, billboards, a truck, magazine interviews, or an album trailer, surely? I mean no offence to you personally, I just think it's time we all collectively accept 21st and move on? I don't know specifically who but a bunch of twitter stans and some ppl from here were spamming his insta account asking for the release date? I don't think anything nasty was said at all and I understand the eagerness to get a confirmed date, but that wasn't particularly the right way to go about it

But... it isn't hope it's denial? We literally had the date in Paris Match, and now Lana herself has confirmed it, it doesn't matter how she said it she still said it. Tbh she probably said it so bluntly because everyone kept demanding the date from her and a whole bunch of people decided to rudely harass her manager on social media despite the fact the date had already been revealed in her most recent magazine interview? "July 21st fam" as in 'I already said the date guys, just accept it'
