'Hunger' premiers tomorrow. <3

One of her best songs, released and unreleased. The lyrics are so beautiful yet sad and haunting. Production is ethereal and better than a lot of her other ballads. I love this song so much

Every era I love to follow this little fact, I'm not sure if anyone pointed it out yet but she's (unknowingly?) keeping the trend of opening the album with strings or guitar, and alternating it by era:
 
BTD: Strings (song: BTD)
UV: Guitar (song: Cruel World)
HM: Strings (song: HM)
LFL: Guitar (song: Love)
NFR: Strings (song: NFR)
 
And she's alternates whether or not the title track is an opener or the second song!
 
I wonder if it's an accident or not

I've kept my cool on this site since I've joined but..
 
Fuck off. Seriously. There's no logic in that statement. None. There's no prior precedent for that. None. 
 
This is an act of gun violence, an epidemic rampant in the U.S. as a result of the fetishization of weaponry and the ease of access to it. The debate on gun violence ended when Americans decided they cared about their guns more than their children. This is not a government conspiracy. This is America. This is its citizens. 
 
Don't be like this, @@Terrence Loves Me. We have no time for baseless conspiracy theories and heartless comments at a time like this.

Post made by Lana on honeymoon. RIP Gramma  
 
 

whuhut cruwell woherld is this  nectar of the gauuuuu haauuuuudhs 

To me it feels like LFL was a transition between old Lana and new Lana. Born To Die, Ultraviolence and Honeymoon feel like a trilogy and Norman, Chemtrails and Blue Banisters feel like another and now it's completed. I don't have any predictions on sounds, lyrics or whatever. I just hope it's another change of pace., A new Trilogy so she can continue experimenting with new music and expanding her lore and catalogue

I don’t wanna live…..!
How come when dealer leaked I was like yeah this is alright but now that the album’s out I just can’t stop listening to it???
the screaming is just so godly. Perfection

something i love about a new album release is adding all the new songs to my giant lana playlist (all released albums) which i put on all the time...i do leave certain songs off it (one's i'd skip on the playlist anyhow) and beautiful did not make the cut.

Just listend to I Talk To Jesus (Alternate Finso version) after Text Book & it's flows so good  I Talk To Jesus would have  been a nice addition to this album 

1. black bathing suit
2. wildflower wildfire
3. text book
4. dealer
5. arcadia

no?
some people have the WORST takes on the album lmaooo oh well!

Norman Fucking Rockwell! Ultraviolence Blue Banisters  Chemtrails Over the Country Club Paradise Honeymoon Lust for Life AKA Born to Die

the 10/10s we'd see if fine china took it's rightful place as track 14

What kind of absolute INSANITY is this 

What the HELL? 
 
 
 
 

I think there was such a post-NFR letdown from Chemtrails and those three singles that some publications like Pitchfork chose not to review/give much attention to Arcadia. There will always be media attention around Lana, but there seems to be a little less nowadays. I think a lot of music critics just don't care as much anymore. People who like her will always like her, and those don't probably won't start now. NFR kind of felt like a peak for her career: she was getting all of the media attention she got during that early BTD to Ultraviolence era but instead of it being confused or negative, it was largely positive. Chemtrails kind of broke that stride and I suspect BB will really end it. 

I don't think they ever do this. Occasionally, if an artist surprise releases an album or releases w/o any singles, Pitchfork will award a Best New Track at the time of the album release (example: Solange's Almeda). But that's not a typical thing that happens. 

They do this all of the time, even with albums they don't like. The Insta post is just linked to an older article about music coming out this fall (the article says the date for BB has yet to be announced). I'm still expecting a mid 7 and (obviously) no Best New Music title lol

when they actually didn’t review the tracks in order to not give away their plan of giving her a 10..

They did write articles on the releases, they don’t always do reviews—but surely they wouldn’t have missed reviewing a track they want to award BNT you know? Just my thoughts!
