West Coast

I mean I do not particularly enjoy High By The Beach and Freak all that much, but in no way do they make me enjoy the album less, only two skips. Whereas Lust for Life and Norman Fucking Rockwell!... a collection of skips.

Surprise, surprise. I have honestly not been into a Lana album from start to finish after Honeymoon. Not to say that I don't like songs on both Lust for Life and NFR!, but there are just elements on both albums that make me not enjoy them to the fullest. Mainly the lyricism and trap beats on LFL and the horrendous production/mastering on NFR!.

But that's the thing though... I felt like the musical outros on NFR! were kinda weak. Like in The greatest, it was weak to me, just lonesome piano notes? On Venice Bitch the musical interlude/outro makes up for more than half of the song, and it felt unnecessary long to me almost corny. I know this is an unpopular opinion, I know a lot of fans now revere VB has one of her best track, but to me it's a cute song, but just because it's 10 minutes long, doesn't make me think it's revolutionary for Lana as the instrumentation is very random in it. Also, Cinnamon Girl, that outro was very anticlimatic to me, same for How to disappear (but that goes for the entire song too). I would definitely love her to get more bridges on WHF in lieu of these musical outros, but to each their own I guess.

True. But at the same time the vast majority of songs on Honeymoon had bridges and it remains her most complete album too. Lyrically, or from a a song construction perspective, I find that there's something missing on a lot of tracks on NFR! (aside from the production/mastering). For instance, to me, California ends too abruptly, or like Hope is just very repetitive and drags on for way too long. The Next Best American Record, imho, despite not being as good as the demo version, is probably the most complete song lyrically on this record, and you know why? *Bridge* She and Jack definitely traded bridges for long musical outros on this record, I felt as though it was completely unnecessary at times, felt like kind of a drag to me personally. For White Hot Forever (LDR6, LP6 (?)), I hope she has a completely different approach to making music than what she had on NFR!.

Oh please Lana make this happen! Send Jackoff take a long walk by the beach while you're at it.

Very smart indeed. We stan a forgetful Kween!

Totally agree! It's not to say that I don't like it, it's just not my favourite, but definitely a step above the other videos I've mentioned. Knowing Lana I have a feeling we won't get other videos, let alone a single video, for this album/era.

Just knowing there was other footage that was made for Ultraviolence makes the official video look extremely lackluster to me. Doesn't work for me unfortunately. Cute but boring I guess? Half of these are pre-Chuck but somehow look post-Chuck Francesco and Chuck are cosmically related confirmed.

like what is she doing to do? like is she like going to like read like a Christmas story like?

Ultraviolence, Honeymoon, MAC and Venice Bitch are all extremely forgettable.

We're talking about Lana here...

Damn, California...chill. Calm down, it's not that deep, sis.

As predicted this album will no longer be titled Wet Hot American Summer. Shocked and upset.

I don't know if these count as lies, but they are certainly deceptive from her part. Here's the exhaustive list of the music videos we were supposed to get: Ultraviolence (pre Freak, and pre pre that cheap-ass video filmed by Italian Sausage) Pretty When You Cry Black Beauty Honeymoon (Officially that is) Art Deco (to be fair she only mentioned it once at a show after, you guessed it, she sang the song acapella ) Best American Record (before she yet again re-purposed footage for White Mustank) Cherry Get Free I might've missed some songs with the amount of unseen footage Lana shoots I wouldn't be surprised. I honestly expect that triple video to be added to this list very soon, once she yet again push her most recent record under the rush to make "place" for the next thing. Oh Lanz.

Welcome to LanaBoards, if you don't like an album you're a "Stupid bitch". Simple as that, no explanation, did I get it right?

Not just on streaming services though, on CD, FLAC files and even on Vinyl this album just has this sort of muffled/flat and tinny tone about it. The production/mastering process of this record gives me anxiety.

Oh wow people on this fucking website, why do you guys feel so damn threated by fucking Opinions?! You literally have nothing better to do or say, no better arguments, just "Stupid bitch" like???

That's what I thought too! Who tf wears black for Xmas special though...

I'm sorry Ma'am, but I won't take this bitch seriously. He disregarded/overlooked her entire discography up until she released her most subued record (much like all these so called critics that now claim to revere the musical genius Lana is/has become? ), the one on which she sounds less like "Lana Del Rey", probably why he likes it so much though. Anyway, Fantino Rice can rot.

The festival tour in 2016 had "Full Moon" as an intro, which was pretty cool too!

Some of the choices on this list are very that... choices. But Ultraviolence is just transcending.

There it is ladies and gents! Born To Die, Honeymoon, Lust for Life and NFR! are nowhere to be found on this list though.

he lowkey has a few nice clothing items ngl

Damn I wished she had been possessed circa 2018 early 2019

he's going to wake up from his long winter's nap soon enough with a flaming hot post about how Honeymoon and Ultraviolence stans are bitter and delusional, can't wait! Sidenote, do you think this album is actually really going to be titled White Hot Forever? Or will she pull another Music To Watch Boys To/Honeymoon on us?
