I just know she has a fake album title+cover+date ready to be posted in her Honeymoon account drafts 
Now seriously, I don't expect LDR9 to come soon at all. Chemtrails and BB were "impulsive" albums, specially BB. She wanted to make some points as soon as possible and she did but I don't think she's in a hurry to release anymore. 
I think we'll be back to the 1.5-2 years gap between albums but maybe she'll release side projects in between (like the covers album and the Nikki x Lana record if it even exists)

All circuits are busy, goodbye (pre-release thread).

why am I trembling over something I’ve already heard LMAO 

imagine like waiting this whole time and dying at like 11:58

THE WAY THAT I FEEL SO ANXIOUS & EXCITED (even though i already heard the album  )
 
 

lights set to the colors you guys told me, sleeping beauty muted on the tv, juul in hand and headphones on lets gooooooooo <33333

how come they come attack LDR but when Bullie Eyelash gets a free pass for lyrics like "steal ur dad type.make ur mama sad type"...lyrics she wrote as a minor..
 

If you were to make a Lana album out of this concept, using her entire discography, what would it look like?
 
I’m imagining a 12 track album with each section representing a different point in time that shows Lana’s journey from the beginning to now. Using her lyrics and the stories she tells, how would you lay them out to be like a timeline in album form?

What it was like:
1: Boarding School
2: This Is What Makes Us Girls/Driving in Cars with Boys
3: Queen of the Gas Station
4: Ride
 
What happened:
5: In the Land of Gods and Monsters
6: Dealer
7: Ultraviolence
8: Fine China
 
What it’s like now:
9: 13 Beaches
10: Chemtrails over the Country Club
11: Violets for Roses
12: Sweet Carolina
 
I’m curious to see how you guys might interpret this! Share your album tracklist below
 
(This was actually harder than I thought)
(I don't like my track list, I'll have to try it again another day)

This video might be my fave with COCC one.
It really feels like a short author movie, like a Gus Van Sant movie. The way the feelings are portrayed, the whole visual aspect of it, the cut, the subtle narrative (it's so risky to picture the lyrics of a song on a music video, but here it's delicate and beautiful), plus the very bittersweet ending : the way Lana looks at the camera seems to tell a secret story, that she is still, in a way, haunted by troubles and that she knows the support of her family and friends will not be enough for what she's carrying ; she keeps on painting the banister but it will not be enough to hide the sadness. That's what I saw, and I really liked it.

She smiles only because she is just having a happy time with her "sisters": Her pain is already washed away or under the surface and she doesn't show it. But if you look closer, she is also thoughtful in some moments.

It’s Iconic, exactly what you’d imagine the video to be like

The opening scene / transition zooming into the picture is ICONIC. It’s just legendary 

It's absolutely beautiful and I got teared up!  What a nice surprise!! <3

I really think the magic word that ties everything together n fills it w meaning is "coping". 

This is probably one of my favorite MV's she has ever made. The cinematic yet simplicity of it all makes this one really special. She looks so happy and fulfilled throughout the entire MV, until the end when she looks back with sadness in her eyes when she's reminded of him once again. I'M CRYING 
 

man I cried at this. did anyone else notice the flashes of emotion? this was perfect. 

Her singing on the tractor gave me Lizzy vibes. I like when she includes things like that in her videos, it's just so... her. Idk how to describe it. But it's such a pretty video, very intimate. The scene with the three of them looking off into the distance against the wind was very cinematic. So far this and the alternate Arcadia video have been my fav videos from her in a long time. 

she said, "let's get this shit over with"

I fucking love seeing album covers in motion so this video was so cool purely because of that. Up there with the best she has ever looked in a video 😳
