    9.4??? Are you kidding me? I thought this day would never arrive, thank god they finally gave her a good score! How much does Pitchfork count in the Metacritic score?

    I felt the exact same, but now I realise having VB as the third track is the biggest fucking power move. Lana is really that fucking bitch.

    I cant stop listening to California i think its one of the best songs she's ever made. The structure is very similar to the blackest day. Its amazing, but i wish it had a better ending. I never like it when songs end so suddenly with vocals and no instrumental, the same thing happened for Love Song

    Thank you for your take on what we call the jingle bells! I’m going to appreciate the song a little more now

    There is so much hate for the percussion on How to Disappear.  I haven't seen anyone mention this yet - so let me share some music history perspective on the "jingle bells" that might help you all have less of a problem with them. 
     
    First of all, they are called "sleigh bells" by musicians, and they were a big trademark of Brian Wilson's mid-60s Beach Boys productions.  He used them the way other producers would use tambourines, and they always added a distinctive sparkle to the Beach Boys.  You can hear them most famously on God Only Knows from Pet Sounds.  So over the last 50 years when another artist uses sleigh bells (outside of a Christmas song) it's 9 times out of 10 in an effort to reference/pay tribute to Brian Wilson/Pet Sounds.  Being that Lana is always finding new ways to reference California, Laurel Canyon, the 60s, Beach Boys this makes perfect sense.

    So, I know it’s not my place to say Lana should get back with him, but I always thought they seemed so adorable together.

    My thoughts exactly, but if I had to choose between another Rick album and another Jack album, I'd pick the latter. I do think Jack is quite versatile as a producer, so I hope that if he in fact produces WHF wow it'll take me a while to get used to this acronym lol, they'll go for a somewhat different sound/vibe. 
     
    To be honest, as much as I love NFR (and I do, what a glorious return to form!), overall it's still a bit too stripped-back for me and I would have loved to have a few more of the experimental, "explosive" songs like Venice Bitch and (the later half of) Cinnamon Girl, so that's something I wouldn't mind getting from another potential Jack-produced album.
     
    I'd also love to hear more songs produced by Andrew Watt, I think with Doin' Time he managed to capture a quite playful, uptempo vibe that sounded new and fresh while still being undeniably "Lana"; it actually reminded me of some of her unreleased bops from the early 2010s.

    Maybe it's just me, but I have a hard time envisioning them dancing to the type of music on Norman Fucking Rockwell.

    I absolutely LOVE how so many artists express how much they enjoy the new album. She deserves all the praise
