Lust For Life - Post-Release Discussion Thread + Poll
GangstaBoy replied to Elle's topic in Post-Release Threads
Couldn't care less about the ratings. I've seen all his Lana reviews and even though I'm a die-hard Lana fan and sometimes disagree with his overall harsh comments I can't help but agree with his critiques. I mean, try to be objective yourself, BTD IS overproduced and too glossy, UV is too homogeneous and the lyrics are way too repetitive. His Honeymoon review was quite positive and if I'm not mistaken, he praised the passion in her vocals among other things. So yeah, he can be nasty and sometimes I don't quite agree with him but I think his reviews are accurate. -

Like it or not Fantano's Lana reviews are always on point, can't wait for the full review. He's right about the worst tracks (except White Mustang ugh), I mean anyone with a teaspoon of good taste would agree on SB, GL and that Coachella mess being the worst tracks of the record and her entire career I have mixed feelings about Cherry, since I really like the song but they could've done WAY better than those boring ass trap beats. It's a shame because I feel like those fugly songs and the horrid trap beats kinda lower the quality of the record. -

You could've @me darling since this was clearly aimed at me lol. I'm not saying every song should be profound and poignant (never mentioned depression) but come on at least try to make nice rhymes if you're gonna be playful, enhance it with a great instrumental, I don't know. Sometimes she really does come off as lazy or at least uninspired. I still enjoy her music but I had to lower my Lana standards to do so. -

How come she's able to write super complex and beautiful lyrics like Finally, I'm crossing the threshold From the ordinary world To the reveal of my heart Undoubtedly, that will for certain Take the dead out of the sea And the darkness from the arts and THEN write stuff like this You're in the bar, playing guitar I'm trying not to let the crowd next to me It's so hard sometimes with the star When you have to share him with everybody And it puzzles me, for she has the talent and the brains to write songs like Get Free and Heroin but she will be remembered only for her dim-witted lazy lyrics like Groupie Love and many others. On the other hand I want to remain positive so I'll end this saying that I love the second part of the record and that BPBP is my super favourite. -

dreaming about heroin / probably gave you everything and took your life away it's the heroine that gave him everything and ultimately took his life I put you on an aeroplane, destined for a foreign land My hope's that you come back again And all my friends have come, 'cause they still feel him here Bad beginning to my new year Oh, writing in blood on my walls and shit Taking all my medicine to take my thoughts away He's clearly not there anymore and she longs for him to come back. How can you not see all the death references, blood, the Manson mention, etc? -

BPBP is one of the best songs in this record y'all better deal with it Nah but jokes aside I'm obsessed with it, the lyrics, the 70s feeling, it's cheerful and bittersweet, everything I was hoping for. Perhaps a nice guitar solo towards the ending would've been nice. I'm terrified to play Heroin again, it's a dark gloomy masterpiece, it's heartbreaking. And is it just me or the melodies are way too complex at times? I don't really know how to explain it though -

I'm always the first one to say 'never judge a song by its title' but Lana sis... -
Melody reminds me of Children of the Bad Revolution, esp the verses "take me in your fast car Mercedes, kissing on your neck while you're driving..."
