Lana hanging out with Marina, Chuck, & Rob in LA - September 23, 2018
Thunder Revenant replied to Elle's topic in Sightings
The fact that Miss Hehitmeanditfeltlikeakiss drinks from the feminist-as-fuck cup I hope the collab is on Mernas record. I don't want any popartists on NFR. The only collab I could see working would be a folky-duet with a male singer. I stll dream of a Mark Lanegan duet -
Norman Fucking Rockwell - Pre-Release Thread

Still can't get into VB. I just don't like her vocals and the melody (you know, the one during the first 2-3 minutes of the track) is so ... not my thing. Really annoys me. MAC on the other hand grew on me a lot! And I'm sooo excited for another artistic vanity project a la Honeymoon (as long as not all lyrics are as tumblr-esque as the ones on Venice BIAAATCH) -

I just hope Talking Like An Answering Machine will see the light of day. It just intrigues me -
Norman Fucking Rockwell - Pre-Release Thread

Not really sure how to feel about it. I like the direction she's taking for the album, I like that it seems to be a more artistic project again and I like that it will seemingly have a distinct sound. But VB ... not really into it. I don't like the vocal melody at all and although I'm usually here for something more experimental, the track feels like it just randomly dragging on with a few things thrown in randomly. However, I'm still thrilled about what the album will sound like. I'm sure it will be another record with a cohesive listening experience. And I really liked MAC -
Didn't the Fader already published the 18th as Venice Bitch's release date? I hope it's really a mini-EP, but yeah - probably just MAC and VB: ANd I seriously hope it's got another cover, but I guess it will be the same terribly unflattering picture aswell, since MAC does already feature the Venice Bitch shirt - plus it's not unusual for not-lead-singles to have the same artwork as the release they stem from. I hope Venice Bitch will either have a bit of a sexy, mysterious Mermaid Motel vibe or a moody tone a la Money Power Glory/ FMWUTTT

That is as cringeworthy and kitschy (and not in a good way) as the porcelain doll collection in a grandmas fuggy living room. -

Apart from the fact that the initial post is right, that's a pretty ambitious statement coming from someone who consistently graces us with bad-taste -

Lol it's obviously not the lead single. 0 promo and Lana saying she never expected it to be played anywhere and just wanted it to be out there as she liked the track.And as if putting Coachella on LFL instead of having it as a standalone single was not the most abstruse thing to do ever -
MAC is more like a vanity release and notreally meant to be a big single or the introduction to a new era. I'm not even sure if it will actually be on the album or if it's just from the same sessions. Lana herself said she was suprised it's on the radio. Love and Summer Bummer were singles from a promoted record, one featured a rapper with his own dedicated fanbase. Of course they got more views

Seems like the music will be more "personal" and artistic again, less focused on flashy, pop-ish productions like LfL. More like UV or HM. Really looking forward to the electric guitars, the surfer-vibes and the Red Hot Chili Peppers influences. -
She just looks bad on it. Not because of the styling, not because "she's too fat" or whatever. It's just not a very good picture, more like a pretty bad one. One a friend takes when you are not paying attention and you immediatly ask them to delete it.It's not that deep, spare me of you snotty "artistic bone" speech and re-evaluate on the question of whether you should not keep you unnessecary rudeness to yourself.

Can't understand how some people can say LfL is "mature". It's such a step back, both considering the artistic maturity Lana reached on Honeymoon (looking at songs like Lust For Life, Groupie Love or Summer Bummer) aswell as the artistic"authority" she's had on Ultraviolence and HM (considering how she changed BPBPT and LFL to be something completely else just for the lols).

MAC sounds pretty cute, definitly more promising than the HIAB snippet. -

But the "cult" will buy no matter what she releases(like a cheap sweater with an ugly emoji that sells for 50 bucks), so why should she put effort into it? -
