The life of a Lana fan is so hard the "mainstream and proud of" it gang call it alternative/indie music The "try-hard not to be hipster by listening solely to indie records" gang call it mainstream, and yet we are refused the benefits of either positions (radio play vs claim to authenticity) Sigh... sometimes I wish I didn't have such an excellent taste in music

I hope she doesn't change a single thing about that song, perfect and stripped down just the way it is. Aurbach shouldn't even touch it. Also AF, people say it's a re-hash of Ride but in all honesty I think the chorus to this one is better. Again she should keep it how it is.

TBH I was always put off by her singles, but I've listened to some of the songs recommended here and most of them are actually great! Treacherous and State Of Grace especially! The lyrics at times can get a bit corny, but some of them are really powerful!

Honestly I was scared she would cram in 100 references to the book in each song, like Moloko plus would become this era's red dress. After hearing West Coast I'm sure the record will be a hit with fans and critics alike.

Who's this? I've been looking for something to distract me up until UV comes out. Is she any good?

All I really need is one more single early May, the west coast video sometime next week and preorder with tracklist + cover art anytime after.

I was hoping we wouldn't get any covers this era, at least not on this record, just 100% new material. Although, I would definitely be here for an EP with covers of all her favourite classic songs (Blue Velvet, Summer Wine, Chelsea Hotel, Wicked Games)

Lol Lana's so mysterious. Has Lana said anything about cruel world? Did she say it was on the record? Did she even say it was called cruel world or did she just start singing an unknown song on stage and people have assumed the rest?

Oh! Each day I get more excited! How about we exchange stories about how we first encountered LDR? I was watching the H&M advert when my brother walked in & said "hey that's the girl that sings Video Games!" I looked it up and 4 minutes 42 seconds later I was a Lanatic for life!

It's really annoying how we only get a sliver of information every four months. Make no mistake I'm excited but it's really irritating how Lana just drops this HUGE bomb then disappears again.

Any new developments?

I still hope they have some version of BB and AFFA on the record, but lana knows better than to release an already leaked song under a different title, fans would go bezerk.

I'm so fucking sick of that word

With the first single coming soon we could ACTUALLY get UV on May 1st. And I was just starting to think Lana was pulling another Tropico on us!

I know right everyone complains about how there's nothing to talk about and when we get THE biggest update yet no one cares.

Me: so lana, when's West Coast coming out? Lana: it's coming out... He he... Soo- Me (Pulls out a gun): stop right there bitch

"Down on the west coast they got a saying"

Wouldn't it be cool if after she makes ultraviolence she releases an EP like Paradise but something different like: Ultraviolence: The moonlight addition Wouldn't that be so cool!!

Yeah she looks tired...

And was that DM where she said that the first single will come out next week real too? Hope so..... WEST COAST!!!!!!! Awesome!!!!!

Nothing? You mean other than all the bitching about how we have 130 pages full of people bitching about how this entire forum is just people bitching about all the bitching going on in this forum?

(1 week later nothing happens and the endless turmoil continues for those that have the strength to go on and haven't killed themselves out of paranoia)
