Visit Fordham University's Rose Hill Campus where she attended college. Listening to "Fordham Road", wander through the Bronx (careful, it's a "bad neighborhood"!) on your way there and see if you can find the cheap coffee place on Valentine or the "stone Mary in the garden". On campus, stop in to the McGinley Center there and check out the ballroom where she sang at a fundraiser. Cross campus to Rodrigue's Coffee House in Alumni House where Lana played several gigs (including her first known gig and another one the same night as the fundraiser). Get caffeinated imagining Lizzy singing "Get Drunk" and "Pawn Shop Blues" here while playing acoustic guitar.

 

Visit more venues where she performed in her early years. They're all listed in the Early Shows section. (Keep in mind that some venues have closed or moved since then. I've tried to list the original addresses in the show threads when possible, but I'm not sure it's 100% accurate.) Explore her Williamsburg stomping grounds at night listening to "Oh Say Can You See". Wander through alleys and look at the bars.

 

Visit the trailer park where she lived, Manhattan Mobile Home Park at 4828 Tonelle Ave. in North Bergen, New Jersey if it hasn't been demolished yet. (It doesn't appear to have been based on Google StreetView photos from December.) Take the Lincoln Tunnel which inspired the "tunnel lined with yellow lights" lyric in "Yayo" as you take yourself "from this dark trailer park life."

 

Definitely visit Coney Island. Walk down Mermaid and Neptune Avenues. Eat cotton candy and explore the boardwalk while listening to "Mermaid Motel". Ride the coasters and the Wonder Wheel. Stick your toes in the sand while listening to "Kill Kill". Lie in the ocean singing her song. Check out the aquarium before you go. Come back for the annual Mermaid Parade.

 

You might also consider traveling down the Jersey Shore to a couple similar boardwalk destinations, Seaside Heights, where I think she wrote "Trash Magic", and Wildwood, where one of her classic photo shoots was taken.

 

And if you're really hardcore, consider a road trip to beautiful Lake Placid, where she grew up.

 

If you do any of this please take pictures and post about it!

Oh my god thank you so much for taking the time! I will definitely do as much of that as possible and take a ton of pics and post them!! THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!

Does anyone have any good LDR landmarks I should see in NYC! Going to stay there for an internship!!

AUERBACH'S WORK ON UV SLAYS LMAO BYE

Ultraviolence is the great is gift the universe has given us!!! I think she needs to continue writing with Stranathan and ugh Auerbach gave life and dimension to her blues-rock sound! Im gonna miss UV! But we are lucky to have an artist who is versatile enough in her song structure to pull off different mega producers touches!!!

I hope she does another UV sound in a later album!

Can you get meet and greet tickets??

Listening to UV was like listening to the not-yet polished version. Her voice sounded LQ with too much echo. They recorded the songs in one take so I guess that's why. They should have crafted it more.

I completely disagree, I thought UV had a solid direction and fit her voice amazingly. Any more polished and it wouldnt be the dark reverb rock album we got!! Ugh UV is so fucking godly

Anyone know where lanas street is in Hancock park in LA!!

It's because of all the leaks!

That's why we know nothing!

Seems like Kim is just being an unnessecary cunt towards lana. She needs to just focus on herself mentioning lana a few times already tells me that it's personal. Kim, stop being a cunt! You had a good run. Grow up

mom's been making embarrassing posts on facebook again

What is she saying!?

I wish she would abandon cowriters too! Except Stranathan! *Orgasm*

What ever happened to Lana and Jamie Kings friendship???

Sorry I don't know how formatting works:/ not tech savvy

Thank you! I honestly thought Dan produced it but that does change my perspective!! And ughh I LOVE the reverb hahahaha I could do with more!!!!

 

 

Nowels produced I Can Fly. I think that's why it wasn't as smooth as the strings in Big Eyes. I agree with you, it's solid, but the reverb irks me sometimes lol

ULTRAVIOLENCE is a Godly album! So fucking solid, dripping reverb, haunting vocals. Heath did great with tropico, old money, but I don't think Lana should continue to work so closely with him anymore. I think his piano/orchestra material is cringe worthy at times, especially the opening of I Can Fly. She should stick with more rock and roll producers and writers, I feel like her cinematic vision is supported by Heath and her vision as an artist outside of film is better suited writing songs with Nowles, Stranathan, Auerbach!!!!!

WHERE ARE THE DEMOS AND UV SONGS THAT DIDNT MAKE THE ALBUM!? And is there a reason to keep hoping that Chelsea hotel will lead to something???

They went from 0-100 in covering their tracks compared to BTD

I wonder how she was being "such a problem"

When does it come out?? I want to order it!! Where can I order it lol

I wonder why this maxim thing isn't a bigger deal in press rn

OK, so how is everyone getting the article already? I thought the issue wasn't out until Dec. 2... link??

Why did she delete the insta pic of maxim cover?

Ugh I really need something new from LDR, a video or new music

CW, SOC, OM

Anyone on earth happen to know when lana is coming into Austin and which hotel she's staying at?

Anyone know where she's staying in austin? Haha

And it's not that we don't want promo. Fuck yea I want a video from every song on the album and a bunch of concerts but she's not into that and it sucks, but to call UV a disappointment is a shitty thing to say. Lana needed to do that shit w btd and now she doesn't have to!
