"There's something in the air
I hope it doesn't change, that it's for real
The beginning of something big happening
And by the Merthyr alleys in the streets have ceased
And still, the shadows haunt the avenue
The silence is deafenin'"
 
This is truly one of the most beautiful things i have ever read and heard in my life. The way she says the last line 

he said i was bad 
let me show you how bad girls do

'cause no one does it better!

Lol, I always loved NotG due to it's sadness and deepness. That song is bleak 

right. imagine both together
 
edit: its actually kind of iconic her doing a media blackout for her album about destroying media critics but also i'm thirsty as fuck

don’t say you’re over me…..her tone is so freaking gorgeous. I’m always on the search for artists that have the vocal capabilities of Lana with the same amount of emotion and only a few come closeeee
 
the twangy guitar in the second verse is so gorgeous on this song, I love everything about it 

relatedly, all I want is one singular great interview about the songwriting and album making process 

Has anyone gone off about Nectar of the Gods? Meaning-wise. Bc I initially thought it was a sex song (I get wild on you, fucking crazy... ) and drugs but also sadness of lost time and ppl etc, but like maybe not. Maybe it's way deeper. That song is so beautiful, it's too much for my mind to process.
 
I thought I was being sexy and sent it to a boyfriend when it first leaked (with my sexual interpretation at the time lmao), but then he responded with a highly depressing song and I was like?? 

i've always loved thunder but i really think the new version has blown the unreleased one out of the water. the slow build up makes the song itself really roll in like thunder and it's brilliant. and i'm no music expert so i'm not sure what makes all those cool sounds throughout but it makes the song really beatlesy and i love it. 

all i want is a photoshoot. just one. i would even take a charlie grant photoshoot

the third refrain in nectar of the gods when she sings "baby you, all the ways you move and the things you do sent me staighhtt to heavennn" with the whispery white dress vocals

Anyways, this is my daily post about how magnificent this record truly is. Can't stop thinking about the line in Arcadia, "They built me up three hundred feet tall just to tear me down / So I'm leavin' with nothing but laughter, and this town / Arcadia / Findin' my way to ya / I'm leavin' them as I was, five foot eight / Western bound." It's a manifesto from an artist who has nothing left to prove and will continue exploring soundscapes and creating their life's work through music. 

My issue with Fantano is that he likes to pretend that he doesn't have an obvious bias against Lana. When she first got big, he full on said that he thinks she's only famous because of the way she looks. I could give less of a shit about what he thinks of the music but that just really bugs me that he said that. 
 
But anyways, it rained where I'm at all day, so I went for a drive through the autumn leaves and the rain while listening to the album. It was stunning. Lana picked the perfect release date for BB. I can't imagine it being released during any other season. 

Black Bathing Suit’s chorus has such a sexy western movie vibe like ahhh

After digesting the album I truly feel that the standard album cover is perfect for the entire record. 

Accidentally listened to the radio for a while today n went with it and I think part of what separates Lana’s music from pop radio music is that it’s infused w genuine emotion, and isnt afraid to be slow. It’s infused w nuance and is real rich w its cadences and isnt afraid to sound how it does. It has an original soul
 
the album’s on a tier of its own n im sure time’ll treat it well

Arcadia into White Dress and then White Dress into Black Bathing suit wow ur mind  searching for paradise, yearning the simpler times, then reflecting on the hectic nature of the life she now lives i cri evrytiem 
 

getting my cassettes today 

All of my vinyls have been delayed until November, but this is what I have so far:
 

 
I can’t wait to hear this beauty on vinyl…. 🥰🧡🎃 PS: I took this pic in a hurry today so sorry for the terrible lighting 

yess and the part on sweet carolina where she says "i don't wanna live, i don't wanna give you nothing" i mean so good

I've been depressed as hell for months, and I'm just sitting here crying over nothing in an A&W parking lot drinking root beer through a soggy paper straw while blaring Beautiful and Violets for Roses on repeat.
 
10/10 love this album. 

Thank you, I'm happy to be part of this forum and community. Its funny how her music can make so many people come together. The new album has literally been on repeat since the released. I should probably actually practice for my shows but Lana's music calms my spirit.

Thank you so much, this really made my day.
Thank you, I'm super thankful for this forums, Lana and the new album. 

I'm so sorry to hear about all your struggles lately. Please don't listen to any cruel words anyone ever says to you. You're more special than you think 💕
Enjoy the record and take it easy, things will get better soon
