.....n-no

Can we stop romanticising the long wait like it's some beautiful, deep orgasmic build up?
It sucks, period.

how the mighty have fallen

I wonder what it's like to stan an artist who releases music?
 
I wouldn't know.

since nfr was announced i have developed a cocaine addiction
 
i blame chuck

This week it's Shades of Cool.
 
That song is a fucking masterpiece.

Lana announce something now cause I’m not in the mood to read essays being posted on this thread!

I don't mind waiting at all, but I do think that the way that it's all been handled is rubbish.
 
I don't even need a date, but some sort of acknowledgement about the album would be welcomed. The fact that she said it'd be released at the top of the year + the Google March 29 means that many of us had expectations that it would be released then. Neither she, nor anyone associated with her, dismissed the March 29 date ... all that had to be said, really, was "it's not March 29. We don't know when it'll be yet." Is that so difficult? Because I don't think it is.
 
She built it up by releasing MAC, VB and Hope, and she said it'd be out at the top of the year. That's all she's said. Tweeting that you don't know when it'll be released on an old Twitter account that most people don't even know exists does not count.
 
It's been purposely orchestrated to keep everyone guessing, and I find that unprofessional, personally. It's OK to say you don't know when it'll be out - but fucking say it. Other artists post shit like, "my song/album will be out on [date]" all the time. I can't think of a single other artist that I like who would handle an upcoming album release in this manner.
 
Maybe she thinks it's endearing. It's clear that everyone else thinks otherwise. So as I said, it's more how it's been handled, rather than the lack of a date or having to wait.
 
ETA: and frankly, if her managers haven't privately roasted her for the way she is handling this, then they are bad managers.

norman rockwell: alternate reality snorting matcha lines and intentionally putting piercings into ur forehead bc it's an instagram trend

I really want another mostly guitar driven track again like Pretty When You Cry. I love that with her voice, it matches so well... if Jack can do something that sounds so natural like that, then I’ll be impressed fully by this record. Don’t get me wrong, I love VB, BUT it’s a little too synthy for me to compare it to PWYC. It’s not anything she’s ever done before and that’s for sure, but to compare the two, it’s not so much apples to oranges but it’s not apples to pears either. If that makes sense? I guess it’s kind like a more synth version of a faster Flipside kind of? (This is the first time I’ve thought about this and I’m stoned so bear with me if this doesn’t make sense)
 
 
I just want Lana to be that 70s rock goddess I know is somewhere in her soul

"Multitude of Matcha" will be the first single

What if she’s reinventing herself again to be a basic white girl that can dominate the pop charts

Have you guys considered what the music after NFR will be like? We're so preoccupied with it that we haven't really talked about what comes after. I mean, if she's writing songs rn ... I can only imagine ... it'll be all contour kit and soy latte references.
 
I cannot see how meaningful songwriting can eventuate, but I hope that's just me being narrow-minded.
 
Also, she never works with females. I know she did the collab with Stevie but that's about it, isn't it? I know it's a male-dominated industry and I'm not saying one gender is better than the other at producing/mixing music, but I'd like her to work with a female on the next album just to see how it sounded.
 
But she'd probably pick skirtsandsuits and then I'd kms

i stopped believing in god when i was twelve after years of praying to a magical man in the sky for my life to get better and i realized shortly after im the one who will determine my fate
 
 
 
also lana has just said fuck it at this point

THAT RED TOP.
SHE GAVE EFFORT.
SHES SO HOT.
(ok bye)

She's getting bald by her own new music

Last Thursday, Lana took a visit to one of her favourite spots, the Chateau Marmont in LA, with her friend/producer of her upcoming record Jack Antonoff.
(I highly encourage everyone to look at the "good meme content" section... some fabulous meme-worthy pictures in there.)

btw Lana in swimsuit on her friend’s ig story looks absolutely gorgeous and giving me strong 2k12 b2d vibes

Or is it even a swimsuit.... idk anymore

ma'am the bible tells people to kill gays so im staying clear of religion xx
 
anyways to keep this on topic do u think NFR will ever be released
the answer is no

Bored af by the NFR thread.
 
Let's do Lana's songs as haikus. (first line: 5 syllables, second line: 7 syllables, third line: 5 syllables). They're also supposed to be about the weather 'n' shit, but fuck that - just try to capture the essence/theme of the song.
 
 
 
"Heroin"
 
Exceptionally warm
These kids are crazy as fuck
You shouldn't take drugs
 
 
 
"Summertime Sadness"
 
Unhappy in the heat
Driving far too fast. You're gone
So I give no fucks
 
 
 
(If nobody joins in, you know I'm gonna do her entire discography ...)
 
(Feel free to re-do a song someone else does if you have a different take on it ... keeps it interesting. Mine tend to be piss-taking, but yours might not be ...)

to say that religion is entirely about peace and doesn't encourage violence is to ignore the entire history of organized religion and the horrific things religious institutions have done/caused
 
anyway, i can't wait for courtney to grab lana by the bunny ears and whip her work ethic and passion back into shape so we finally get the real release of NFR, the topic at hand in this thread 

for real though the absolute kiss-assery (?) by all the lana fan accounts is so annoying.

She really doesn't understand how thirsty we are damn

the photo is better than Chuck's at least
