  1. i can feel the growth of her music, and just the general growth of life thru this album.
  2. Hope is a dangerous thing, and kintsugi playing right after
  3. I'm excited. There was a part of me that really embraced the combination of NFR and BB, and really took Chemtrails to heart during the pandemic. This album cycle, feels invigorating. The promo, the interaction, the QUALITY of the visuals, and the music's so dynamic and tender, and beautiful, and is even further elevated/ progressing/ advancing in sound. I like to think Text Book was a kind of floodgate from Chemtrails' title track, where ocean blvd. sorta just gushes out all this beauty. it feels a bit like a resurgence and of course, newness of sound, but i'm just incredibly happy about the dynamism AND heart that this album holds. it's incredibly enlivening, and spirited and wholesomely moving. even the sexual references feel a bit more forward and noble to some extent. we just got the album like a week ago, but i've been enjoying it at a steady pace and it just gets better and better the more i explore it.
  4. Discuss, share.
  5. friend introduced this to me lemme get my lute
  6. I wish they had more merch at the backs of things. I like walking ahead and I feel like having a logo on the upper left, with a photo at the back would be a lot cooler imo n less overwhelming while still having an actual full photo design
  7. Kintsugi’s like the reprise to Hope’s Hallelujah there you go, you’re welcome.
  8. U wanted me sadder (baaaaaaaabe) u wanted me sadder (can’t u seeeeeee it) u wanted me sadder
  9. i'm not gonna pretend like I know exactly what's going on of the album cus i barely had a moment w it just yesterday, but. what I can say about it from what I feel and sense, is that it's such a wondrous, soaring, but still mysterious record. I think the sea setting and the tunnel blends perfectly into the imagery and themes of the album. warm water, cold water, it's inviting, clear, and sometimes hazy. romantic, sensual, cerebral and pondering, but still all the while, very tender. earlier there was sorta? dk perusing the thread, sorta a discussion about how the music seemed like it was her last, and i think, at least for me, it's bc her music sounds clearer, in spirit, and more wholesome, and solidly assured. not to say that she hasn't been etc., but more so in a way that she seems more carefree and there's less of an "ache" of a feel overall from what I can feel. kinda like the same feeling you might have when someone can't anger you anymore, and you're just vibing and focusing on what you love, nods to the serene queen portion of the album being the last 3 tracks of the album, as an ode to herself. it's a compelling album that holds a lot of heart, and carries dynamism just like how life can do. incredibly solid, but still very much wondrous, and at the same time appreciative. it's a cool, cool album.
  10. yes!! same, there's a timelessness to it, that I can hear, and Lana's always the one to do her own thing, so it's nice to hear something reminiscent of more or less, forgotten music in hers. there's a mellow, calm and a kind of poignant magic to it. definitely! LTLI just has that kind of similar world in it.
  11. thinking about gwyneth paltrow and her relationship w society media etc.
  12. this album somehow just reminds me of this song, it compliments the sound so well
  13. I’ve been laughing at myself and getting mystified to Margaret’s when you know, you know, cus its like stranger than a stranger 2.0 and makes absolute total sense all simple but still so profound, not complex at all, and just the insinuating of knowing, when you know. It’s just- there you go, when you know- you know. It’s giving CAMP. It’s giving genius!!
  14. Its just so wise, when you know, you know!
  15. This album actually isn’t a film, it’s like one of those great 2 season shows that leave you wanting more. Or like a really good 3 hour film that leaves you wanting more nonetheless
  16. i started listening to this record with more intention/ less distractedly, and oh my god. BAWLING. I think, what this album tackles is kinda like a very unique perspective of a woman, that can translate to, many changes in life that one has little control over, to being hurt so much but still choosing to still keep the course and being a good natured person (despite the many things) and doing so in a way that the popular opinion might not understand and even hurl scorn for, but in a smart, classy and matter of factly kind of sense. she sings about family, themes of time, character, and identity. she comes out steadfastly, and shining. like idk about ur guys' cycles of life etc. but this album sounds like the dreadful backstory of the sweetest person you've ever met, and in plainer language, the person that you sort of write off all the time's perspective. she sings of it quietly, and does it with care. and it's heartbreaking, cus if you've ever been in a position of getting a lot of undeserved flack after doing your best to be a person w integrity/ good character, you can hear the wisdom, the healthily accepted not so cheery facts of life, and the silent faith and confidence that a more quiet, and less boisterous person has. in my own life, i think because people see me as sweet, and unassuming, they think i'm naive, or stupid bc of how happy and cheerful i can be, and for the most part, i am, I learned to allow myself that, but, very few people really know the amount of more, let's say negative things that i've gone through. i think they'd be surprised at how I can still keep smiling, and because of things i've gone thru, really emphasized the need to be a positive force. I won't scream it off the mountaintops cus that's my life, and I'm not gonna tell anyone, but this is online so I feel like it's ok to mention, it'll get lost in the thread, but I earned my happiness. and going thru harder times, I feel really appreciative of passing those tests of character. this album, resonates w me in that way, and I think, it's a beautifully hopeful record, of how dare I say, people trying to be good, can still be seen, if even silently trying, and having that confidence of being who you are, without having anyone having to applaud/ praise you for it/ give you benefits for it. it's like an answer from the kind of people you might deem forgettable, the chance and comfort to being understood, and that's extremely powerful in our world, cus societally, majority of people are too quick to judge and have even less time and focus to really try to understand something, let alone step outside of themselves to really make space to connect (unless it was a peer/ group etc.) I'm really happy for her. she's so real for this, and I love how we're celebrating it, if even just in fragments more thru music and sound.
