I looove Basta Ya. Had it on repeat this summer
-
To be fair - the Dear Tommy songs we heard so far often had standout-quality. Cherry, Shadow, Time Rider and I Can Never Be Myself are all among my favourite Chromatics-Tracks
-
Haha I love how they just skipped Dear Tommy for now and suprise-dropped a 7th album. Chromatics aren't really very versatile when it comes to their overall sound and aesthetics, but "Closer To Grey" is still pretty nice to have. "You're No Good", "Touch Red" and the title track are my favourite songs so far. "On The Wall" sounds a bit like a tribute to the Night Drive album.

It's definitly a great autumn album. I love how it feels like it's a new approach to music for her while still being classic-CW-music. It's a bit more "epic folk" compared to the introverted, slowed down sound of Unknown Rooms. Some of the songs remind me of Marissa Nadler alot. Her vocal qualities really show on this album! Can't pin my favourite tracks down yet. Deranged For Rock & Roll is definitly a strong song, probably the catchiest one she ever released. American Darkness has this wonderful noire-ish vibe and I loved it as soon as it came out as a single and it hyped me up for the album a lot (wasn't too impressed with The Mother Road) I love how Be All Things is so calm and peaceful and how it's sound really embodies its message. When Anger Turns To Honey is another quite unusual song when looking at Chelseas repertoire. I ike the soft beats and the way she sings on it. And then there is Prelude To A Dream Play, which has this Lovecraft-ian creepiness and would have perfectly fit on the second half of Abyss aswell. Last but not least, the title track "Birth Of Violence" is an excellent track aswell.

Seattle, WA @ WaMu Theatre - October 2nd, 2019
Thunder Revenant replied to Elle's topic in 2019 NFR Tour
Ahahaha so we're back at the acapella snippet phase where she does lackluster versions of great songs she'll never do in full anyway, acting as if she'd be doing the fans a favor by performing tracks from a new album on said albums promo tour. -
Not hard to imagine. It's cheap. Well not everyone has this cult-ish approach to famdom. The album was bad and bland and if she csn't do better then she should probably take another hiatus
-
I hate how she and especially her fandom push this romanticised "the other woman" narrative. If you are aware that your lover is cheating on his/her partner you are just as disgusting as the cheater himself.

Clementine is the first Halsey song since Badlands that's not shit
-
Apart from Video Games, Blue Jeans and - occasionally - Summertime Sadness she should not do ANY BtD songs anymore. Born To Die is a great song but her live performances are meh and while the live arrangement of OTTR is cool, she was never actually managing to SING it in full. The medley was a cute idea but it's old now and she should sing sone full songs instead. Why not do West Coast and MTWBT instead? Having Cherry and WM on the set list is not actually a problem sinxe they are so short. The rest of the setlist on a tour called "The Norman F*cking Rockwell Tour" should be from NFR though - Cinnamon, FIILY, The Greatest, California, HTD, HIAB ... so many possibilities and she choses Doin Tine with a full playback
-
The acoustic version of True is actually pretty decent.

Minor General Questions that Don't Deserve Their Own Thread
Thunder Revenant replied to Monicker's topic in Lana Thoughts
DOes someone still know in which Interview Lana said the songs on Born To Die were autobiographic? -
Don't Call Me Angel [Music Video] - OUT NOW
Thunder Revenant replied to Elle's topic in New Releases
Not a fan of the track HOWEVER Lana ACTUALLY stands out in a very good way. The song is mostly Ariana-material and the video reflects that - Ariana standing around, serving kinky 17-year-old vibes, not doing anything else. Miley is desperately trying to be the tough chick but everything she does screams Disney channel and her part sounds like it's just backing vox. Lana is the only one to actually feel like a secret agent and her bridge is pretty good. -
Because that's the idea behind that verse. He pretends he's here for her, but he really isn't. She meets him and tells him about her problems, she appreciates the way he takes her serious and listens to what she has to say. But he's not REALLY going to be there if she needs him, he just comforts her and acts as if he would help her through her struggle. They probably once were that close but by now, their friendship has started to fade. And that's how he disappears from her life - step by step.

The review was pretty snobbish and it was the same old shit that mostly focussed on Lana herself and her artist image. Her saying she never used a personas is as bs as her saying she did not have plastic surgery. However, it's shitty that reviews tend to focus on this stuff instead of ACTUALLY focussing on the music. Those condescending pseudo-intelectual reviews are boring and prove how unqualified the journalist is to actually review music. But then ... insulting and attacking her because of a review? Wow, that's pathetic. And Lana should not encourage this kind of behaviour.
