Yeah but I guess it’s what happens when you share an anniversary with Honeymoon. When Venice Bitch was released, roles were reversed and nobody was mentioning poor HM’s birthday

If any leaks ever happened through the stolen laptop like she first suggested also: wtf is DNC.

Can’t believe this thread exists

This album means so much to me. I remember its first snippet, the HM title track, on Insta, when I was on a trip in California. In the daytime, I was listening to UV non-stop and in the nighttime, back at the hotel, I would play the snippet on repeat Still one of her most hypnotic, mysterious and Lynchian tracks to date. My first listen was through the UO listening party leak. You know an album is fucking good and some tracks are insanely great when even a LQ snippet with people chatting over them doesn’t bother you that much (still remember the end of God Knows I Tried and the chorus of The Blackest Day, I was like ) a couple of months after HM was out, my mom passed away and this album was pretty much all that I could listen to that would bring me solace. Swan Song has a total new meaning to me, same with the bridge of Terrence Loves You. Fun fact: it’s the only Lana album I bought my mom, before she passed away, because she loved how calm and melodic the songs were. Still one of her best. I’m glad it’s slowly getting more attention now in the fan base.

Happy bday, masterpiece!!!

I think that if Neil pulls out a great cover with variants, LB will be at least satisfied with an era

I’m with TropicoKitten on that one. True, the era has been anything but fed by Lana herself since CN’s MV, but the music is so rich, so grand. It’s her first album, since Norman, that I return to almost every day. The songs I « liked » the least (or that were maybe a bit too intense for casual listening) are now the ones I look forward the most when I press play. It’s really one of her best.

Completely disagree on this one. UV is perfect as is: It’s her most cohesive story ever from start to finish. Although the outtakes would have made and incredible « B side » album or Deluxe. anyways, let’s hope electric guitars will be more proéminent on LDR10 (or whatever number is the next full original LP)

Bah it’s mandatory, at this point, to argue about the number of albums she put out

Will we have to merge this thread with the unreleased collection when it is announced or will we rename this thread to LDR11?

Gave it a couple of listens and I like the songs from Lacy to the closer. The first three tracks are a bit meh to me. it’s a good fun pop rock album. GP will eat this up for sure.

It surpassed 6B streams on Spotify !!!!!

it’s called main pop, hun, and it sucks

Indeed! It’s kinda insane how incredible pop-ish hits (or at least songs that could have been hits) she left on the cutting room floor: Cry Kill Die, Serene Queen, Queen of Disaster, etc.

Hearing her audio poems makes me hope that, someday, she’ll go back to Behind the Iron Gates or that she’ll release the audio poems already recorded. It’s a tragedy, what happened with her laptop.

Jesus who lives in Toronto here?

For the first time ever, Lana has THREE albums charting on the Billboard 200: BTD, OB and NFR!!!!

Enough time has passed to reevalue the song a bit. The first lines sung by Jon really are basic lyrics but the rest is very good. Also not a big fan of the last line ending the song a bit abruptly, but it’s not that bad either. Not CN type of tier, but not unpleasant (it’s in a couple of my playlists and I won’t take it out but won’t replay the song either). Hollywood Bowl is still a bit better than that one to me.

Never was the biggest fan of Miley (loved a couple of songs here and there) and this new song won’t change anything

To me, it would be Buddy’s Rendezvous, title track to Ocean Blvd and Venice Bitch or FIILY (she shines in electric guitar songs)

Should we just change every pre-pre-release thread to « Jack or no Jack? » because I don’t mind a bit of repetition, but its really a never ending loop here
