So I guess this indicates the record will be called MTWBT? Yay! I'm getting total "surf noir" vibes already! -

Meanwhile the 'alternative' fans be like: After Lana has released her 37 minute psychedelic grunge epic "I Actually didn't fuck my way up to the top (feat. Courtney Love)" accompanied by a music video of herself painting her toenails grey and slitting her wrists on the thorns of white roses (filmed on an iphone, ffs) the indie queen/reincarnation of Kurt Cobain will cancel her summer tour to find a reason to break up with latest boyfriend Francesco Carrozzini. Then on May 1st Lana will release her latest album HONEYMOON to critical acclaim and continue not to release singles for the next year before staging her own drive-by shooting, framing Lorde then returning from the dead one week later and suprise releasing her revolutionary future-jazz album "suicide note" (dedicated to the late Barrie James O'neill) before buying herself out of her contract with interscope to join Azealia Banks' newly formed independent label "F U IGGY RECORDS" and Lana shall be initiated into the league of icons by Beyoncé, wearing the skin of Stefani Germanotta as she bathes in Chanel No 5 and sacrifices a child to the spirits of Hollywood. Hey, at least she never has another top 40 single -

... I'm confused. People seem to be talking like they've made some official announcement. Correct me if I'm wrong but all we have is a possible title, one description of the album, and an unconfirmed producer as well as an estimated release date in AUGUST?? I mean I thought that wiki page was a little premature seeing how we hadn't had any official announcement, but in the past few pages people have been making statements I can't really see the logic behind. Could someone update me? Or is this fandom just jumping the gun as per usual? -
In this guardian interview she says she wishes she was dead, which caused a lot of people to condemn her for obsessing over death, so she responded on twitter with a series of tweets claiming that her statements were taken out of context to make headlines, and he had manipulated her with leading questions. Here it is: http://www.theguardian.com/music/2014/jun/12/lana-del-rey-ultraviolence-album Here are her tweets: http://cdn.swaggernewyork.com/media/2014/06/lana-del-rey-the-guardian1.jpg ^btw she got his name wrong, the guy she was reffering to is Called Tim Jonze... I'm not sure who Alexis is. She later deleted these tweets. Tim responded with this article: http://www.theguardian.com/music/musicblog/2014/jun/20/lana-del-rey-problem-interview-but-why Then again with this...guess they were just desperate for clicks : http://www.theguardian.com/music/2014/dec/17/lana-del-rey-death-wish-unleashed-storm-of-hate Some of Lana's sassy replies: And you can find more at the "Lana's sassy replies" thread here: http://lanaboards.com/index.php?/topic/4488-lanas-sassy-replies-appreciation-thread/?fromsearch=1 Hope that clears everything up

Idk if this is a particularly unpopular opinion, but Sirens is Lana's worst record imo. Don't get me wrong, some songs such as Sirens (/drive by/for k/rehab... I'm really unsure about the official title) is beautiful, river road (next to me?) is fantastic, Star For Nick and Bad Disease are both excellent, but the majority of the album is just boring. The melodies are samey and uninspired, some of the lyrics are REALLY cliché and overall most of the songs just don't do anything for me. The only good songs are: Sirens, River Road, Star For Nick, Bad Disease, My Momma, How Do You Know Me So Well?, Pretty Baby, Birds Of A Feather ... Ok, that's more than I expected to write, but the rest of the songs are just awful.

Yes, but it gets her far enough into the process of producing the album that an August release would be possible, albeit unlikely. -

What the actual fuck at that tracklist -
THANK YOU! Also, guys, it took our girl a year to start talking about a follow up after BTD. We've barely had UV for 6 months and Dalai's already recorded TEN demos for her next record, and she seems a lot more confident about making this record then she was coming out of the BTD era. All that promo and PR was just more weight on her shoulders tbh

Hey guys I'm kinda new to Twigs but I bought her song Water Me and I always thought that the phrase "water me" meant, give her some time and love her and she'll grow into a great woman but recently I've been listening to the song and the line "he won't make love to me now, not now I've set the fee; he said it's too much in pounds I guess I'm stuck with me...when making love is free" and I started to wonder if when she said "water me" she meant that once he is ready to satisfy her (shower her in cum) their relationship would grow. I don't know, I've never been the best with deciphering lyrics but after looking up the lyrics to Two Weeks I can't help but wonder. Am I right? Or is this just me making everything about sex again?

Idk, for me it's just not the best opener, it's a good song (there isn't a bad song on the record, just some that are kind of jarring and don't really fit, or some that don't compare to the rest of the record) and imo ID has some of the best lyricism of the entire album, but Desperado just grabs the listener's attention much quicker and it has that jazzy intro with the radio DJ talking about Azealia's 'new record' which, idk, always made sense for me as an intro to the whole album.

Does anyone know if she's done anymore interviews lately or if she's doing some soon? I feel like her giving little hints about the style and production of the album in interviews will be all we get 'until possibly spring next year. I wonder if she's discarded the 'music to watch boys to' title ... I just can't see an orchestral grunge album fitting that description. -
I don't usually take any interest in this woman's music but I'm seriously lost for words at All Things Go... It's such a great song.
-
In my opinion, Desperado works miles better as an opener to BWET than Idle Delilah. Plus it's just a better song in general. There are quite a few songs on this record that I just find kinda disposable, & nude beach a-go go does NOT deserve to sit on the same record as 212. But damn when Azealia gets it right

Prejudice is the word I was looking for, I'll go back and edit my posts to be more politically correct then. MOVING ON I just got True Romance for christmas as well! I guess I'll just listen to that until we've all forgotten my mistake
