"Black Beauty" is one of the best songs ever recorded
 
"Florida Kilos" is one of the worst songs ever recorded
 
Ultra & Violence, Roses & Guns

"Money, Power, Glory" even sounds like it's riffing on Lorde's "Glory and Gore," she is def. wielding daggers
 

Sry for double posting but I finished my translation. Wasn't sure if I should create a new thread because some people might not notice that there's the full interview now but whatever. Maybe someone could change the title or add sth like "full interview" or idk.
 
FULL INTERVIEW (Translation)
 
 
 
 
I kinda really like this interview or at least most of it. The part where she says she's feeling alone and that she thinks she experiences differently...I said almost the same thing to a friend when I had a mini meltdown a few days ago.   Also what she says about her imagination, that she's dreaming all the time - I kinda relate to her...
 
Anyway, I hope I didn't make too many mistakes.
And guys PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS IS A TRANSLATION OF A TRANSLATION!
Now let the the meltdowns about feminism etc begin

Isn't it obvious? She's shading Lorde. She talks about Lorde's curls and in the chorus she says "This is my show" (Lorde shades a lot of artists and she thinks she's so cool with her dancing/music but she's not). It's about Lorde's arrogance... Jesus Christ she even imitated Lorde's singing at one point in the song (mimicking her weak/whispered low notes).

If we listened to all of her interviews instead of reading them would they all be so utterly charming instead of upsetting

I disagree with that.  I think she is very self aware.  Maybe too much so.  Her interviews are very indicative of her mood.  She is complex.  Don't expect to find consitancy in her words.  She is just looking for a place of happiness she hasn't found yet.

Google 'AA cult' and Atlantic Group is literally the first result http://www.thefix.com/content/cult-aa-Atlantic-Group-Clancy-Pacific-Group-London-Joys2092?page=all

Regarding the cult guru that Lana mentioned in Grazia, this echoes the general concept of her being in a destructive love relationship. The breaking down of people and building them up again obviously evokes the creative alchemical process of Solve et Coagula (analysis and synthesis), but I get the sense that this guru's specialty was mainly to break people down. I am also reminded of the mythical concept of the soul being imprisoned by the lord of the underworld:

Basically I would say that the guru is another representative of the ego. Alternatively he is a male partner of the female ego. The female ego has a suppressed masculine aspect called animus, and as a suppressed aspect it needs to be re-activated in her consciousness (usually through interactions with males) on her way back to wholeness (the soul or Jungian Self).

I finally understand her fascination with science
 
Not really a cult, per se

Here is a few instances when Lana explained the meaning of the word "ultraviolence":
 
“Ultraviolence is about the male that meets the female. But before the actual sense, I just like the word. It has become the space of a sonorous world that I wanted to make.”

"It's a matter of musicality. Ultra is a sweet sound that contrast with the meaning of the next word. I relate to that: my essence is sweet but inside me there's also a violent spirit who came out in the last 4 years."

"The juxtaposition of "ultra", which gives a certain idea of luxury; and "violence" which, to me, reflects the sound of the album really well — it's chaotic but also street music, melodic and sophisticating. Altogether then, [the word] Ultraviolence also means that I've lived between these two states; in my private life, a serene kind of love; in my professional life, a lot of negative press, in my opinion..."

This shows that besides associating the word "ultraviolence" with a relationship between a male and a female, she also associates it with a duality within herself or in her life: sweet serene love on the one hand and a violent, critical spirit on the other.

so I guess this means it's not about Jimmy Gnecco then? sounds kind of like a Jim Jones reference. weird as I've been studying Jonestown for a college project and it's so dark and... something I can see Lana being interested by.

Y'know Lana could've easily pulled the misogyny card wrt how she was treated, and clearly she doesn't want to make that the issue
