    I can see BCD being what Lana would call "almost unlistenable" it's got a lot going on -- organized chaos. I don't know if it'll be on there though.

    I don't really buy into any of Lana's descriptions.  I do hope it's darker than the first.  Otherwise, I just see it as her way of hyping it.

    Trim the header height down considerably, change the CSS from:
     
    background: url('http://lanaboards.com/header.png') repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent);
     
    to
     
    background: url('http://lanaboards.com/header.png') no-repeat top center transparent);
     
    and leave the fall-back on background: #000;
     
    There is no need for a PNG file this large: http://lanaboards.com/header.png with all that black space, especially when you have a fallback CSS that is already black.
     
    I ran network activity in Firefox and this is absolutely the issue that bogs down the loading time:

    I don't get this renewed interest in Moroder.  He was cheesy in the 70s-80s, forgotten in the 90s-00s, and now just because Daft Punk brings him back he's passed this threshold where he's considered "good".  Dude sucks, there's a reason why Italo Disco didn't take in the U.S.  He is so campy and doesn't realize it still after 40 years.
     
    Yeah I get the Scarface soundtrack but it fit with the film, lest anyone remembers his abortion to Metropolis.

    I'd say these are "warm-up" dates.  After Coachella, I'd full expect to see an East Coast tour announced under some kind of title ("______ Tour") then later a return to the West Coast and UK/Europe.  After that then other major markets like Mexico, Australia, Brazil, etc.
     
    Also, she's not going to perform the whole album at any festival.  The time slots are too limited per artist.

    He won those awards decades ago and even that doesn't really mean anything. Macklemore won four Grammys this year. And do awards really mean that much to you because they obviously don't to Lana.

    Dark doesn't just have to mean it's about depression or alcohol dependency or whatever, it could be about like sex or **~naughty~** things. It could be like a bad relationship "everybody's saying you're no good for me.. but they don't see the dirty stuff you do to me".
     
    I don't think BCD is gonna be on Ultraviolence, i just think that ~((sonically))~ a song could have a similar weird vibe to it

    Looks good I'd change:
     
    Wholly in the sky, like a pizza pie. (She is thrown completely up, holy makes no sense)
     
    I like a man with kick yeah (I really don't hear an 'n' sound and it sounds like the demo where it's obviously "kick" that rhymes later with "lick")
     
    But I don’t need no jet to write it in the sky (like a skywriter, it's an old motif -- someone goes to great lengths to express their love by writing a message with jet trails in the sky)

    Not all the songs have to be dark.  Like I said, I'm not buying into anything Lana says.  I'm just saying that BCD is a good example of how one could describe "almost unlistenable".  I don't think it'll be on there because I just can't see it flowing well.

    I completely agree. When i was listening to BCD in the car i was like, this sounds so chaotic with the random voice snippets and the chorus is all like fast-intense it's amazing but at the same time you're like "what the fuck.. why am i listening to this" ahahhaa
     
    I wouldn't mind the BCD direction for Ultraviolence~ but i for some reason just can't imagine them together. To me BCD feels more electric and like an impulse where for some reason i imagine Ultraviolence to be more ~echoy~ i don't know ignore this last part hahaha

    Can I just say that although a lot of Lana's unreleased songs are the best, I don't want any of them to appear on the album because I believe Lana is a great songwriter and should use all new material rather than the old...

    See ya'll at the Billy Graham    Excited!  I wasn't into her when she packed Amoeba but I was at the bar next door.  I remember it being crazy then.  Yeah it's a "medium-big" venue.  I think the Fox in Oakland is bigger, it gets some bigger artists sometimes.  If she were really big she'd be playing the Oracle Arena.  But the Billy Graham is one of the biggest venues in the city.  I expect it to sell out very quickly.  She's popular here.
     
     
    You guys are silly too, she'll play stuff from BTD and Paradise.  These shows will probably have 3-4 new songs if we're lucky.  It's meant to tease, especially any show before the album comes out.

    Guy probably works for label, management, etc.  Coffee to discuss business or whatever isn't exactly uncommon.  Let's just hope for no jeeps added to her cars-in-song list.  Creep in a jeep?

    " Male friends" Dan Heath, Rick Nowels, Emile Hayne etc. etc. She works with men to create albums, videos etc. Maybe this guy has role in an upcoming video or maybe he helps her in some way. Must everything between Lana and men have to be "weird". Lana is very focused on her work. And a Little innocent flirting never hurts.

    The purist would dissemble and try to have it as close to as Lana intended back in the day/how they were released.  They're also going to EPs if they are under a certain runtime.
