Thunder Revenant

Oh I was confused for a minute and thought there was something else I missed haha Thanks for clearing that up!

Wait - which new song? Hollywood Bowl, Lost at Sea and - ?

I mean - the production is nice, the setlist is nice but ... her vocals were really lacking for big parts of the show (not that it matters, the crowd shouts so loud they won't hear her sing anyway). Don't know why y'all feeld the need to talk yourself into something else.

1. HM 2. UV The "untouchables" in my opinion. Timeless, beautiful, cinematic twin albums. Lana on the peek of her artistry. 3. NFR 4. BB Both are very solid and I find myself coming back to them a lot - NFR from a more easy-to-listen perspective, BB representing her more complex newer style. Ranking between those two switches quite often depending on my mood. 5. Paradise 6. BTD I love both to death, but they are so extremely linked to a certain time in my life that I can almost only listen to thrm from a nostalgic perspective. Also my taste in music has changed a lot since then. As with NFR & BB, they rank very closely to each other, generally I prefer Paradise but sometimes I'm really in the mood for BTD. 7. DYKTTATUOB 8. LFL Both are nice albums, although they are a bit of a mixed bag - some tracks I really love, some I almost always skip. Rarely listen to them as full albums. 9. COTCC It has grown a bit to me over time, but I still feel like this is far too bleak. It never really feels like a complete body of work.

AW is not a happy song either - make it make sense

HM UV NFR BB Paradise BtD DYKTTATUOB LfL CotCC

Really likevthis final version. I always really liked the "Ultraviolence Demo" woth the strings, the percussion and the sound effects but I think they really did a great job with all those subtle details. I know someone will drag me for it, but I really miss the time when she used to do tracks like this, that were not intentionally chaotic, lowfi or whatever

Love that its out but what is that ugly ass cover ...

So did I, what's the problem hun?

Imagine coming to a thread titled Unpopular Lana Opinions and getting triggered by a post

I don't think this is about ABBA as artists

We all know this was rigged because of the Abba anniversary, right? I mean, they chose Loreen to make it believable but ... it was just way too obvious.

France was good, the rest was sone of the most bland amd boring rip-off acts I have ever heard. I really wonder how these bleak tracks can induceany feelings beyond indifference in anyone. And why do they all think that screaming equals emotion. Also, not Lana promoting the worst act of the evening because of Ed & Ben ...

I'm not agsinst the idea of swapping between BTS/ "proper" video clips for story telling purposes (actually really like the concept), I just feel like the execution here is really really messy

So ... wtf is this. I mean yeah, playing with the BTS/ not BTS vibe is a fun idea but ... this was weird. I'd rather have a shorter more conventional video tbh

I feel the one problem with Melanie that after her debut, she did nothing but degress. Let's be real - Crybaby was a power move. The playful production, the over-metaphorical lyrics, the haunted doll visuals - even though the "edgy alt pop" age on Tumblr was already coming to an end by that time, with other prominent icons from the era having already moved on to a different style, Melanie really managed to pinpoint the nerve of this generation. Releasing an overdramatic, visual concept album to a fanbase that cherished Born To Die, Electra Heart, American Horror Story and Alice: Madness Returns was very very smart. However, even back then I felt like she overplayed it. The idea of getting a video for each track was cool, but in practice it really dragged out the era. Also, a lot of the later clips were mediocre in quality and too "on the nose", even though the concept was not very subtle to begin with. And then, Album 2 was basically a rehash of a concept that already felt stale and overextended. For someone posing in diapers and baby chairs, sje really took the whole Crybaby thing too far and the narrative (which was already a bit too much on album n.1 imo) felt awkward and weirdly fetishized. Also, the musical aspect was just heavily neglected, it was all about the videos (and the cringworthy "movie") and keeping up the Crybaby act at any cost. Portals feels like she was desperately trying to find an alternative concept , so we now have that halfbaked fairy theme that does not really make sense and is 50% Björk ripoff and 50% the vibe of those weird elf-figurines that are sold in pseudo-spiritual crystal shops. The concept is weak and the music is even weaker - there is no substance to it, no interesting vocals, no nice melodies. Just try hard provocation and a rushed package that already feels pretty dated.

The package is nice but DYKTTATUOB is the worst sounding vinyl I own The first time I put it on I was afraid something might be wrong with my record players needle

She's Not Me, You Can Be The Boss, Kinda Outts Luck, Heavy Hitter, In The Sun, Jealous Girl, Is It Wrong, Put The Radio On, Hundred Dollar Bill, Every Man Gets His Wish, Last Girl On Earth All are pre-BTD/ BTD outtakes that kinda got out of sight when more and more other leaks happened

Definitely Alexandra Savior. Other artists you could enjoy (depending on which Lana era you prefer) are Widowspeak, Fiona Apple, Elysian Fields, Hope Sandoval & The Warm Inventions/ Mazzy Star, Lera Lynn, Jesse Jo Stark, Miynt and Hooverphonic.

West Coast, Cola, Blue Jeans and Cherry Also the Thunder demo

They took the fire out of it and messed up the mixing of the climax part

Yes

Totally here for this. But do these registrations really mean something? Like I think quite a few other unreleased tracks are on there with "release dates"
