Poor Stacy

4 star review from a French magazine called Telerama, I typed it out into Google translate from a picture lmao:

I'd better get my Amazon vinyl the day of. If that doesn't happen, I don't even know what to say.

this is definitely her least promoted era. lana herself has only mentioned the album twice since january 11, the day she announced it. once on january 11, and once yesterday, march 15.

they're just placing their bets on us buying all her vinyl variants and they were right ...

From the side of the jewelcase, it looks like the rest of the packaging is identical to the standard except for the cover. Lana really said Standard Artwork Rights!

My bad!

I love the standard cover because it's almost begging you to hate it. It's weirdly camp and definitely serving '50s housewife realness. Seeing people meltdown on IG about it regarding ~diversity~ also had me laughing for days. Lana being as inarticulate as ever in her response did not help, but... it's a mood.

I don't know where else to ask this. Does anyone on here have an extra Lust For Life coke bottle vinyl they'd be willing to sell to me? Or a red Honeymoon (don't care which cover)? I missed out on these before I started collecting vinyl and I'm really trying not to spend $300+ on them. Thank you in advance!

We should start getting reviews tomorrow.

lol at the rating already starting to plummet after debuting in the charts, the incel bros can't handle it i'm waiting to give it 5 stars because it's going to keep falling first

It was posted a couple pages back that the type of plastic used to issue/store them will break the vinyl down over time, basically degrading it. I rarely buy picture discs so I wasn't aware. Apparently you should put the disc(s) in a MoFi or rice-paper (Invest In Vinyl) anti-static inner sleeve, and then place it in a thicker protective outer sleeve (I have Invest In Vinyl for these, too - they're on Amazon). I know it seems like a lot of extra work, but my record collection is really important to me (for those of us investing in Lana it will be very valuable down the road), and I want to keep mine in pristine condition as long as I can, so I'm going to take the advice, lol.

I'm sorry, but these dorks getting the album early are so fucking annoying. Taking pictures of just the sticker, throwing text all over the gatefold, being too nervous to post pics, it's like... I wasn't going to report you to the FBI, but I am now because you're being so "top secret! confidential! privileged information!" about it. And I hope they are jailed, forever. I wanna see pics of the back cover, the variants, the gatefold, the poster, everything. Bitch.

I didn't realize picture discs shouldn't be left in the sleeves they came in. Good to know! My poor HAIM picture disc, lol. I just bought more inner sleeves to put the vinyl into an outer sleeve.

OK, lame question, but we have 3 more days and I'm just... waiting: What vinyl variant do you consider the "standard" for COCC (other than black)? Or the color variant that represents the album best? If there was only one color variant being sold, which do you think Lana would have chosen from the ones we got? Curious 2 know ur thoughts.

Is Target the only variant without a gatefold (and do we know it isn't a gatefold for sure?). I double checked the other variants and it says they're all gatefold.

Did they make the back cover black and white instead of brown/sepia-toned? Looks that way to me, but I could be wrong.

The way we all completely forgot about this.

This is a wrong opinion.

I just realized the title track is now my third most-played Lana song behind West Coast + Venice Bitch. I genuinely didn't even realize... There's just something about it that makes it infinitely replayable to me. I never get sick of it and it never gets old. I wish there was a word for it.

We're pretty close. COCC > NFR > HM > UV > L4L > BTD > P

The way people who haven't listened to White Dress don't even know that the second verse is better than the first. "Summer........... sizzling................"

That honestly doesn't look as bad as I thought it would. I guess we'll see what the full package looks like.

Is it possible to peel off that ugly blue WalMart sticker on the picture disc? It looks gorgeous but I don't want that sticker near this masterpiece.

No.
