  1. I was there too, this weekend! The copies are SO beautiful and everyone who doesn't believe us are just jealous!
  2. This has been the strangest pre-release yet and now the most boring
  3. Ignore what I said about not listening....I couldn't resist but
  4. Nectar of the Gods has been hitting lately Blue Banisters really is a collection of her best work huh
  5. Sweet Carolina was recorded in one take. So was "Pretty When You Cry" and "Yosemite." It's going to be beautiful

  8. I think that Violets for Roses will be the "Bartender" of the album, in the sense that it might be very meandering and experiment with more of a free flowing instrumentation. Black Bathing Suit will likely be the usual fan favorite track, but I don't know what to expect of it, really. I predict that Sweet Carolina will contrast with Cherry Blossom in a way in terms of style. I think that CB has somewhat of an anxiety about facing the world to it, despite its maternal and soothing lullaby. Sweet Carolina will likely be the answer, or response to Text Book, and really focus on being in a good place with her family, instead of facing that longing or search.
  9. Here's the deal...there's a picture on the wall.. My body is a map of LA...I guess you could call it...text book
  10. What cruel world is this, nectar of the gods Heroin gold in my veins and you in my thoughts...
  11. French Restaurant would have made Born to Die even better. Should have replaced Million Dollar Man with it. Or Lolita on the deluxe.
  12. I've been loving Lana's post-Honeymoon records, but in many ways, I have been craving that sublime sense of unity and cohesiveness that Honeymoon has. Chemtrails came close in this regard, but I do feel like it was missing that one track to tie it all together. It is looking like Blue Banisters will have that in store for me.
  13. I'm not too much of a Lana collector, but I am obsessed with the artwork for this era. After the store was restocked, I now have all of the CD's on pre-order, a first for me
  14. Text Book is actually a perfect opener, the more I think about it
  15. 2 more weeks With the amount of amazing tracks we have now, I really think that I can hold off until the 22nd. I'm so excited
  16. Listening to Born to Die. While I have outgrown some of the lyrical content, the entire album still sounds fresh almost a decade later. So good
  17. I adore Norman and it really is one of my favorite records, but the one qualm that I have of it is that it isn't very cohesive. It's a bit chaotic and all over the place in terms of sound. To me, Blue Banisters is of the same caliber thus far, but it really seems to be pointing towards a very cohesive record in ways that we haven't seen from her since Honeymoon.
