American Whore

I really love the lyrics of HIAB. I can’t wait for this goddamn album

The one thing I can complain about so far on the new tracks is I wish Jack would turn the volume of her voice up a bit, it’s almost as if the instrumental overpowers her vocals which should’ve been fixed in the mixing stage. That’s the only thing

Bro Venice Bitch has taken over my life so much that when I went to Lana's website and the MAC video came on autoplay I froze my heart stopped and I was like "holy shit is that a leak????"         

Idk but it’s been a conversation since she released the songs and personally I’m tired of hearing “it’s folk it’s folk!” when it’s literally her trying to get a feel for a new mix to her genre crossing music. Acoustic doesn’t mean folk. Folk and acoustic aren’t interchangeable. They’re not the same at all and a lot of these people who know nothing about music theory think they just know it all lol 
Idk it’s just annoying when it’s her MOST experimental and psychedelic music, yet people want to not consider it what it is lmao. Just because “folk” sounds good to some doesn’t mean that’s what it is. It’s really annoying when pop stans try to talk about rock influences or “psychedelia” yet know nothing about that subgenre of rock. Or trying to give “experimental” a description. As if “experimental” means one particular sound

I’ve read friends comments and thoughts and VB reminds people of The Beatles, Beach Boys, Pink Floyd, RHCP and other artists who did this same kind of sound before during their later years. Strawberry Feilds Forever was experimental at the time the Beatles were around. The melotron helped give it the sound it had, the same she used on Tomorrow Never Came and carried the melody of Something by the Beatles. She definitely would fit in an experimental or psychedelic folder right now, or at the least, Venice Bitch by itself. I agree it’s not fully psychedelic if you’re thinking about the acoustic beginning. But the acoustic guitar doesn’t make it folk. And because there is so much confusion between “is it folk? is it experimental? is it psychedelic?” helps push it into an experimental grouping. Experimental doesn’t mean any one sound. NOTHING is exactly “experimental”, but this compared to the rest of her discography is experimental.
 
TL;DR I’m pretty sure spacy synths and the unexpected change of direction in her sound would put this track in an experimental area. Lana has a huge grey area where some tracks don’t fit a genre but I think if this one had to be one, it would make sense to throw this one there.

The song would be considered experimental psychedelic. The synths and guitars from about 2:00 forward (that’s almost 7 minutes) is more spacey, psychedelic in a way. The part where she sings isn’t the entire song. I really don’t know why people keep saying “folk” this isn’t folk this is experimental. An acoustic guitar doesn’t always make something folk

The one thing I can complain about so far on the new tracks is I wish Jack would turn the volume of her voice up a bit, it’s almost as if the instrumental overpowers her vocals which should’ve been fixed in the mixing stage. That’s the only thing

She won’t re-record AKA or release an unreleased album tbh

In her book, it would be experimental. She’s never done music like this and she is trying something different, pushing two genres into one song. I don’t know what else would be more experimental than this from her. Since Lady Gaga did some “country folk” record everyone seems to be a “genius” in folk or music genre determination

We thought this about UV!!! And it turned out to be her best

I love her piano ballads (why are people shitting on Change again?) but I'm sure there will be a few more psychedelic tracks like Venice Bitch. It wouldn't make sense to drop that track along with the album news if it was an outlier.

I mean it’s just something I was thinking about yknow she sings it on the road sometimes so it wouldn’t be hard to remember the lyrics lmao one can only hope (but watch it fucking happen please remember this post when it comes out and we will discuss lmao)
