Liz Taylor Blues

It just makes me even more desparate for a full jazz record

Taylor: Hey zach dawes, get in the van.

Heres the deal cause i know you wanna talk about it
lana never stepped in when Jack would play bad keys so I ended up hating the keys
later than beautiful and synths by mike dean
comfortable with wonderful playing

It just makes me even more desparate for a full jazz record

jack made it so just picture something boring and uninspired over the same 3 piano chords and voila 

tayble, borde and bilbo somewhere scrambling to come up with something QUICK 

So I never was a Jack Anto*off hater but this album certainly wouldn't be as good as it is if he had been involved. 

Jack Antonoff is seething

It just makes me even more desparate for a full jazz record

The HOLY QUARTET of LDR albums - Godtraviolence, Godlymoon, Godman Fucking Godwell and Godlue Godanisters PERIODT LUV PERIODT LUV

Okay wow. The way both of these album were designed with bordered album covers.

i think i’m one of the few who adored Text Book when it first dropped, the whole amy winehouse verses vibes yet west coast tempo switch-up - divine - and i prefer the bluesy more UV vibe type of songs but my favorites so far that had me obsessed on first listen are Text Book, Black Bathing Suit, IYLDWM, Beautiful, Dealer (had me like wtf when i first heard it, i giggled) and Thunder. 
 
BBS is completely unmatched to anything she’s ever created before, it’s chaotic and messy but so beautiful (and gives me UV vibes which I will always love) and it just was exactly what I was expecting and craving from her after COCC’s tease of TJF, COCC with the outro and DBJAG. it is so unexplainably unapologetically Lana and I am just trying not to overplay it. Thunder was my favorite unreleased last year and I played it quite a lot but I’m still not sure where I stand with the album version vs the demo, it’s beautiful but it lost the TLSP indie rock genre that it was in that gave it that unique feel to it but it’s still an amazing song. Dealer is so quirky and it makes me feel drunk. the first time I ever heard it I tried not to burst out laughing because it was so chaotic but it was a grower. Beautiful’s introduction and melody are chefs kiss, for someone who moaned at the constant ballads that have been released lately I love it it sounds so sweet.  I previously mentioned my view on Text Book above and honestly I feel like it is some of Lanas best work. this is just my opinion on my favorite songs so far, with each listen it’ll change.

Dealer gives me such a Cigarettes After Sex vibe 

Just some thoughts:
 
This album is better than Chemtrails and L*st F*r L*fe, but not as good as NFR, Born To Die, or Ultraviolence. 
 
Black Bathing Suit is a career highlight and her best song in years. Just stunning. 
 
The second half of Blue Banisters is stronger than the first one. 
 
Blue Banisters is lowkey her worst title track to date, don't @ me. 
 
Wildflower Wildfire remains the best one of the four pre-release singles. 
 
Why is Miles Kane not credited as a featured artist on Dealer nnn?
 
I'm so happy she put Thunder and Living Legend on the album. 
 
The correct Holy Trinity of this album is Black Bathing Suit, Thunder, and Living Legend. 
 
In conclusion: She fucking did it again!

Imagine the meltdown when Complex rates "Blue Banisters" > 8/10  
Anway, does Spin hate her after that "go fuck yourself" incident tho?

I remember her saying about COCC that it needs one more defining song like Dealer to get it to the place it needs to be at and I feel like Dealer had that exact effect on BB. The song just makes the album as a whole so much more interesting & special imo.

Jacks production blends everything together. It's hard to make out details in COCC.
 
But then again I stand by NFR.
It's her best album hands down ..
 
Lemme escape before HM fans come for me

Yes it's Lana who wants that sound.  But I enjoy the piano on this album way more than on the two past albums if I'm being honest. The piano sounds so beautiful & interesting on this album!!

omg I hadn’t thought about this..but now imagining the meltdowns if she announces another record as a response to criticism
 
then again, it’ll be interesting if they rate BB really well. I’m curious to see what they’ll say now lol

Pitchfork on that sweet carolina verse:
 
“It’s funny and real, a reminder that the people we love most aren’t just the ones to whom we dedicate our earnest love songs—they’re often the recipients of our dumbest jokes.“
 
I actually really agree with this, one of my favorite verses, I think a lot of people are missing Lana’s sense of humor. and of all publications, PITCHFORK??? Gets it??? for once??

Heres the deal cause i know you wanna talk about it

Other men I met felt right
Would smile at you and stick a knife
In your back
Finally, I met you so I'm not wonderin' why
