Yo, this is the tea. BB is like the final form of what she was going for on Cocc, and is so gorgeous and personal, TB had a chorus that just, it slaps. It's so catchy it hurts. Do you know how odd it is to have a line like "There we were, screaming black lives matter" stuck in your head all day??? Modern masterpiece. WW is an odyssey. I don't have much to say on it. It's wild, I find myself really vanishing into that one, just sinking far into the lyrics. An opus incoming. Again. She's relentless

u'd think a triple released would leave us with some kind of underwhelm for at least one of the tracks but. on the contrary. ON THE CONTRARY

Hey girlies, "Text Book" is a magnum opus up there with "Shades of Cool" and "Venice Bitch"

Zach Dawes owes us a whole album. California, Thunder, Text Book are impeccable and who knows about the rest.

I’m thinking it’s more the opposite. Every album of hers is sacrificial in that she never knows how critics will react, which is why she distances herself from a project by having already moved onto the next one. Despite loving it, critics wondered if NFR was just a fluke, so she continued her streak with Jack to record her most personal record to date and settle any questions on her authenticity. It’s not a very controversial album and I think she did that on purpose. She bit her tongue, collected her Metacritic bag, and announced RCS, basically pulling the rug from under everyone.
It’s sad that she has this kind of relationship with her own music but I understand it and relate. Safeguarding yourself from criticism can be really empowering when you know you’re onto something.

I definitely think 81 is a better score. NFR is significantly better to me. To me, NFR is absolutely no skips and pretty much a perfect album. Venice Bitch, Happiness is a Butterfly, and Bartender each, on their own, blow away anything on Chemtrails except maybe Tulsa Jesus Freak and Breaking Up Slowly for me.
Even though I enjoy the melodies and harmonies, Not All Who Wander Are Lost is the most uninspired I've seen Lana in her lyrics. I also enjoy Wild at Heart, but the fact that she basically reused the production of How to Disappear also ruined it a bit for me.
Even though Chemtrails has grown on me, I'm having a really hard time connecting with it - which is a problem I've never had with any Lana album. Even Sirens, I connect more with, so it's not even like I can theorize that it might just be the stripped down production not doing it for me. I recognize objectively that COTCC is good, mature, and more refined then a good amount of her past work, but something about it just isn't clicking.
Lana's music has always felt custom made for me, but COTCC felt like when I listened to folklore and I was like "I can see why people like this, and I might like a bit of it, but this just isn't really my thing. Objectively, it's good, but it's not for me." I've NEVER felt that way about Lana's albums and it's lowkey driving me a bit mad that I feel this way about Chemtrails.

The gag is that most people don’t even know/care that she’s genuinely acclaimed these days. They still treat her like SNL was yesterday. I’d gladly trade universal acclaim for UV 2.0.
