OH WOW

I think she meant a more traditional, "lead single" type of song. These will be on the record, but wanted to release them for fun and the end of summer.

Venice Bitch is hands down one of her best songs to date. Experimental, psychedelic, folky. I said what I said. 

Pitchfork gave it Best New Track already.

Ultraviolence and Norman Fucking Rockwell are my favorite album titles lol

I did not expect this at all. I didn't even think she could be capable of something THIS good. Getting lost in the guitars 

Man p4k have really had to eat their words the last few years. The BtD review was so scathing (and not very well written tbh), they pretty much designated her as flavour of month who would not be remembered after the video games hype died down. They then spent the next 2 albums calling her a bad feminist, saying her dad bought her career etc. I guess we've finally come full circle and lana is finally the real deal, here to save music.

okay I never would've predicted she'd release a 10 min track, or that her label would even let her tbh. shook.

Lana has released a video for her second single “Venice Bitch” from her upcoming album ‘Norman Fucking Rockwell’

whew the ACCLAIM 

Y'all saying that her label will drop her are just being dumb. Lana is one of their best selling artists with the largest cult followings of all time. She might not be having huge hits right now like Dua Lipa but the biggest difference is that Lana will be an artist that people still listen to in 30 years from now, while probably most of us will have forgotten about Dua Lipa because her music isn't timeless and sophisticated like Lana's. Don't get me wrong, I love Dua Lipa too but she's nowhere near as good as Lana, and y'all know it.
 
Lana is incredibly prolific, working on new music all the time, and her label knows us rapid gay stans will always buy her albums and make them a shit tonne of money. Besides, how many artists can sell as many concert tickets as Lana? Not many. 
 
So honestly leave Lana the fuck alone and enjoy her best era in her whole career.

Everyone really just wanted to see her do something MORE, and she finally did it by switching it up.

Overall, VB is still growing on me, but damn, her vocals sound amazing. I really see this album being her baby, even moreso than Honeymoon. You can tell she has this aura of confidence in who she is and who she's grown into as an artist. I feel like this album will be the most Lana one yet. 

Honesty I think a lot of people forget that Lana has appeal to more than just pop listeners, there are so many genres of music where 5-10 songs are the norm. These two songs are getting a lot of praise outside of the pop-sphere.

I did not expect this at all. I didn't even think she could be capable of something THIS good. Getting lost in the guitars 

They are on the album, and she's releasing a new, "more serious" song in October.

Exactly. She really gave them the rope for traditional pop structures with Lust for Life, and now they're trashing it. Let them use the rest to hang themselves. 

Don't come crying saying this is her best record to date when the album gets above an 80 on metacritic and praise.
