kitschesque

Its unclear to me if the collab is for her record or something else??

she has a new album coming out, just dropped a new single and she asks about something she wore like 4 years ago? 

This lady was really awkward with Lana imo
And why exactly did she waste most of the time with asking what Lana has in her purse like???? 

did this lady really waste the entire interview talking about dresses and red carpets  

Could someone explain me what's Lana's deal with Interscope, Polydor, Universal? I don't understand it, tbh. I think I read Universal is responsible of YAIL, but aren't Interscope and Polydor her labels? 

last year
boring question bc im a boring person, when was the last time you ate donuts?

This sounds super cool put together but I'm actually pretty scared by the dates on twitter being the group spell casting at Trump 
 
Not to mention the satanic book the stalker allegedly stole from her house among other evidence in this thread 

that one idk.  
Plug in your headphones or just play on low volume. Lana songs are ambient noises anyways good for sleep

Phonetically Obsessed and Best do rhyme, I've put the proof in the spoiler tags.
 
 

It's not called Subversive Road. One of those words is correct tho (the SHORTER one ))

Not feeling these new shoots.
 
I'm expecting strong visulas like the love cover + video not this bland UV 2.0 mess.
 
Does she want to win the GP back or not?

idk if ill get in trouble for this or if ill get warning points but here are some BAR lyrics if y'all wanna read them, i got them from Eclipse
 
 
 

I love Neil but these pictures are giving Terry Richardson white background teas & I'm not here for that!
 

 
Looks like that's probably one of her dad's shirts tho. Cute I guess

That picture is so pretty, and I love Neil, but please god don't even let her think of letting that be the album cover. My stan card will be returned.

^ this, but I do find this interesting bc one of the insta accounts that was posting snippets/stills/other info before Love came out posted a lq still/picture earlier of Lana holding cash (it kinda looked like she was at a vending machine tbh ) before deleting it an hour or so later

Wow! Just saw the video and the smile on my face is a mile wide... THANK YOU :) 

Father talks about the Freak video with NME http://www.nme.com/blogs/nme-blogs/i-kicked-some-girl-in-the-face-by-accident-father-john-misty-on-appearing-in-lana-del-reys-freak-vid

Not going to lie, I had a mini fan girl freakout when she added me back lol. Ever since I've delved into the Source world, I've become a bit obsessive, trying to get my hands on any information I can and reading every article I can find. Isis has become as important to me as Lana at this point and I have so much respect for her. I'll keep everyone posted with what I can find out but as she is in her 70's now I want to show her as much respect as possible and take my time with it. I know you guys will understand that
 
So yes absolutely I will volunteer to liason with Isis. It just might take a while lol

If we could discover the name of the place with the long trees (Summertime Sadness music video/FMWUTTT booklet picture/Some The Source Family pictures)... It would help a little bit, I think. We all know Lana is obsessed with places (Chateau Marmont, Coney Island, New York, LA...). Idk

Original:

 
 
UV Booklet:
 
 
 
Might be farfetched, but there's something going on with those damn long trees and that filter. On other hand, I do recall seeing them in the music video for "Summeritme Sadness" as well... But that's a thing I've been picking up a lot lately. Another visual aesthetic move? Or just my paranoia? 

From IMDB: The Source Family was a radical experiment in '70s utopian living. Their outlandish style, popular health food restaurant, rock band, and beautiful women made them the darlings of Hollywood’s Sunset Strip; but their outsider ideals and the unconventional behavior of their spiritual leader, Father Yod, caused controversy with local authorities.

Before we journey down the rabbit hole that is the Source Family, their leader Father Yod and the influence all of this may have had on Lana Del Rey and her album Ultraviolence, here is some background information of who they were and what they did:
 





There are also many excellent articles on Jim Baker, Father Yod and the Family available online. While I will be linking some of them here as references, I will mostly be focusing on the Family and their own personal interpretations of what was going on during the time they were active as I believe this is where Lana gathered most of her inspiration from. There are a lot of negative articles written about what actually was going on behind closed doors at the Family homes and while I'm sure some may be accurate, and will lend support to some theories, the writers of the articles were not a part of the Family and did not experience first hand what went on. While most former Family members do have criticism toward Jim Baker, the man, they speak very highly of Father Yod as their Earthly Spiritual Father, enough so that I don't doubt they would embellish. I recommend reading all evidence and articles with a grain of salt as all of it is personal anecdotes and there is no solid facts to back up any claims made.
I encourage every member of Lana Boards to dig in and discover any other pieces of evidence you may find regarding this topic. I will add to this post as new evidence is found with credit to the finder!

Here is the original post that I made in the Ultraviolence lyrics thread so please have a look at that for an idea of what started all of this:

So hopefully now you have an idea of the Family, we'll jump into the evidence we have. Some of it will be stuff that I and other users have already posted on the UV thread, some will be new. Please note, this section will be updated as more info is discovered.

The Source Family and their Influence on Ultraviolence

General Evidence



Lyrical Evidence
While I believe some songs on UV are inspired by the Source Family, I don't think that all songs were inspired by them. So you won't see Old Money on this list for example, as it is clearly written for the Great Gatsby, inspired by the character of Daisy and written as an epilogue to Lana's Young and Beautiful.

I also believe Lana is inspired from many different things and she weaves them into her own story, either by becoming who she is writing about or imagining herself in a similar situation. She has said before that is in the habit of writing about several things in a song and tying them all together. For example, Video Games being about two different men, etc. So while some lyrics fit the Source theory, others will not as they are probably influenced either by her life or something else.

Cruel World



Ultraviolence



Shades of Cool




Brooklyn Baby



Aesthetic Evidence
This section is about the pictures used for Ultraviolence vs pictures from The Source Family Archives as well as the soundscape Dan Auerbach and Lana came up with. Lana had stated that her new take on the UV album was "Unlistenable" with many different sounds, tempo changes, etc. Some of the Ya Ho Wha recordings sound very similar to how Lana re-did UV with the layered sounds, experimental vocals and tempo changes.

Sound



Visuals



As I stated above I will continue updating this post with more evidence as I find it. Please feel free to post any similarities you might find and I will happily add it with credit to you!

I TOLD YOU
 
Queen of Space, Queen of Alchemy and Queen of Meaningful Occult Symbolism

I've been meaning to post this for a while, but it seems Lana has been inspired by Baphomet (symbol for an alternative idol/deity) by quite some time. I first blatantly noticed this in 2014 when I was watching the Carcassonne concert and noticed her doing the two-finger gesture multiple times during the show. After searching about Lana & Baphomet, it was brought to my attention that she has made this gesture in many music videos, performances, etc. After posting her "solve et coagula" bio, which is written upon Baphomet's arm, I knew that this was more than just a theory. I'm not sure if this has been spoken about before, but it's just something interesting I thought I would share.
