This is a very interesting review. I wonder how it will be counted.

Metacritic added the New York Times review as an 80

So, MetaCritic needs to add: 85-Absolute Punk 67-Consequence of Sound Still waiting on reviews from Q Magazine (new edition on Tuesday...this one is weighted heavily), Boston Globe, Pop Matters, Austin Chronicle, The 405, A.V. Club, Under the Radar, Clash Magazine, Paste Magazine, Drowned in Sound, No Ripcord. I would say Fact Magazine, but they seemed to have stop reviewing recently?

Yeah, that's weird. It also reads like a more positive review.

67 from Consequence of Sound.

85 from Absolute Punk (counts)

79 after NOW is added.

Oh, yeah. Sasha is the Lana fangirl and she's not writing the review.

Who, CoS or the usual trolls, 405 and AV? I was shocked when Tiny Mix Tapes published that positive think-piece to avoid giving UV a good review

Come on, Consequence of Sound. Pull through. Our girl needs an A, especially with 405 and A.V. Club negative reviews imminent. Maybe they'll pull a Tiny Mix Tapes and not review the album since they want to avoid giving it a good review.

So, yeah. LA Times and NYT do not count as reviews and the Sputnikmusik review won't be included since it was written by a contributor. So, still waiting on reviews from Q Magazine, Consequence of Sound, Boston Globe, Paste Magazine, The 405 (which will be negative), A.V. Club, Fact Magazine, PopMatters, Absolute Punk, The Quietus, Clash Still hoping for a couple of 90-100s, but it's looking less likely with some of her biggest advocates already releasing reviews and her fanboys with Consequence of Sound and Boston Globe not working on her reviews this time around.

Maybe Sputnik won't be added since it's just a contributor review

79 now. Come on, Consequence of Sound. Pull through. Too bad the Lana stan isn't the one reviewing, though. --- http://www.slantmagazine.com/music/review/lana-del-rey-honeymoon Another 60

Still at 80 without the Sputnik review added

3/5 from Sputnik :/

This is the Honeymoon MC thread and not a fan album analysis thread, Andrea.

You're correct...it doesn't count.

I think I just realized that the LA Times and NYT pieces count as articles rather than reviews. It's hard to tell on those sites, but neither has a "review" heading.

Still an 80 with Billboard added. LA Times should be a 90 or higher, but I can see MC giving it a 70 or something. NYT could be anything depending on how they interpret it. It's clearly meant to be very positive, but... The guy from Boston Globe who loves her isn't reviewing anymore :/

Yes, probably. Still holding out hope for a couple of 100 or 90s scores from some of the missing publications

Everything has been added except for NYT and LA Times and she's still at 80!

The review is in...they gave it a B+ The ones I listed are the scores MC hasn't added yet
