I liked the part where this thread got derailed discussing my sexuality and genitalia. Honestly, when will your fave?

praise this reply
 
finally some...positivity 
 

well we have a new album here in 3 or so weeks.. thats some thing..

same. i love terrence but 14 of those will be too much.

Why would you test the boards... are we like, lab rats?

"Concept album" is the new flavour of the month. Give me a fucking break. all albums have a theme.

Me too. less tracks we hear before the release, harder the album will slay.   

Prisoner is ok imo, you can listen to it every once in a while but it's nothing special (still way better than Wait For Life though  )
 
Am I the only one who was immediately reminded of songs like Damn You or Backfire when it comes to her voice ? It sounds so pop-polished if you know what I mean...

I can't even stand looking at this thread anymore. People will literally complain about anything and everything. She'll post something on instagram and I'll be like 'aw that's cute and exciting' and I'll get on lb and people are griping (and I'm not talking about everyone, obviously). It's very annoying and it makes coming on here a huge bummer. People can't just be happy in all the news and content we've gotten in a really short amount of time, they have to pick apart everything. Maybe I'm a 'delusional fan', but I don't always want to be picky about trivial things.

What if 24 is For K Part 24!!11!!1!!!1!

Yeah i think that Honeymoon is based on that concept too, and she said she was going to be less autobiographical

i don't think lana's slow, minimal songs are boring. if i thought that why would i be a fan lol? but an entire album of them would be monotonous, sorry. lana is capable of more than that. i want some variety.

Am I the only one who dislikes the UO cover? I like the frame with her name and the title, but I don't think the photo is that suitable for an album cover.

I was unaware that people even felt that way about BTD. I still consider it her most iconic album yet.

I still love Ultraviolence the best and if she were to revisit a concept or musical style, I would rather it be the live-sounding psychedelic rock Auerbach production.
 
I feel the production on Honeymoon so far is really weak. On HM, there isn't enough percussion and you can't really stay alert through 6 minutes of mostly strings and piano and the verses are far too monotonous. On HBTB, I love the trap influenced beat but think it could be more prominent. I think the production for the bridge of TLY is pretty much perfect but is somewhat generic for the rest of the song. I also dislike the jarring layering of her voice at the part where she sings "And I still get trashed..." (also dark blue dark blue). Overall, of the songs so far, the melodies are ok(HM verses/HBTB chorus) to good (HM chorus/HBTB verses) to brilliant (HM bridge/TLY bridge) but the production is uninspired. I had heard great things about Rick Nowels.
 
Though Emiles production is divisive, Born To Die wouldn't be the record it is without it. The samples and hip hop elements juxtaposed with the orchestral elements really made the songs unique and amazing. Ultraviolence production was a symphony of layered rock sounds with guitars and heavy drums (while being varied, eg Old Money, FMWUTTT) and it was one of the areas where critics applauded. However, production for this album is worrying. Although Lanas voice is powerfully beautiful, the songs released so far suffer from there not being great instrumentation to complement it. Sometimes I like to listen to the instrumentals of songs from BTD/UV. I don't see myself particularly wanting to listen to the instrumentals of the songs released so far.

All this hate for BTD and Paradise
Yall have actually lost your minds.

This thread became a mess.
I think all songs on Paradise are flawless and they are my most overplayed Lana songs ever.
But let's not argue about that. It's okay that we prefer different songs.

Ride, American, Gods and Monsters, Bel Air, and Burning Desire are bops!

the hate for 'paradise' is ridiculous. it's amazing.

Hm. I think you are kind of right. I also don't think it's "just" about the end of a relationship, like a general break-up.
The "I lost myself when i lost you" sounds like it's really a heavy loss and the bridge, which seems like she tries to "reach" someone who's lost, like the ground control is trying to reach Major Tom. Another hearbreaking part is "I don't matter to anyone", like she would have lost the only person who really mattered to herself and who helped her getting over problems with other people/feeling lonely.
BUT I don't think it's a seperation because the other person died. The "you are who you are" and "I won't change you" parts wouldn't make sense in this case.
If we assume Terrence is really supposed to be influenced by Terry Bowie, could this mean the person in the song lost someone to a mental illness?
This would explain why you have to deal with the fact that you maybe can't change the person back to who he/she was before and why you would try to "reach" them like you try to reach someone who's far away. Still getting trashed when she hears his tunes would mean she remembers him like he was before, doing things he did before the illness.
This would make the title"Terrence Loves You" seem even more heartbreaking, since it would be kind of something someone says to a relative/partner of a mentally ill person. "He's not the way he was, but he still loves you!"
 
 
BTW I love how the song, even though it has some really sad lyrics, doesn't actually sound like a dramatic sad song and has these jazzy saxophone-lines and guitar-strings.

I love how this is her first [explicit] Bowie reference and some people on here already came to conclusion she knows his entire life story I'm not saying it couldn't be true - but sistrens... it's just one line
