  1. I've been listening to Portals nonstop, even more than Ocean Blvd tbh. It's addictive. Sometimes the abuse of vocal effects is annoying, but overall the album is great. Evil and The Contortionist are such anti-people pleasing anthems. She really surprised me. I had lost interest years ago and was tired of the adult baby shtick, so I'm glad she reinvented herself. It worked.


  2. I've only listened a couple of times...it's good background music for vibes but the songs blend into each other and idk. I like it but it's lacking something? The singles are good, though.

    It's interesting and experimental which is a relief after the last 2 albums. But I dunno if I actually....enjoy it as a song that I would want to listen to over and over again. It feels like it is building to something and then doesn't really deliver on it.

    Ok I take it all back. I ate my gf out to this song and it clicked for me. Haters need to have sex.

  5. I'm more of a casual Charli fan--big fan of "True Romance" when it came out but only paid attention to "Sucker" and a few songs here and there after (like "Vroom Vroom," my fav!). She got me interested again with this release, especially since I am a huge fan of Christine & the Queens and Caroline Polachek. (RIP the SNL performance that could have been.)

    My favorite song is definitely "Yuck." Wish it had been a single. I also like "Twice" and the title track. "Baby" has grown on me. Not into the slower songs at all.


  6. So...the songs are amazing, but I can't help but feeling "off" about the album because of the reused leaked songs. If I view the album as more of a compilation of b-sides with some new stuff, it's easier for me to appreciate it without feeling slightly disappointed.

    I have to say, I never liked the leaked version of "Thunder" much so I think she did a great job changing it up on the album.

    I'm still in love with BB (the song) and WW. I love BBS because it's so current and personal to her life right now. I guess that's also what is getting to me--what are the old songs telling us about Lana today? I don't know. Hm.

    My biggest issue: the quality. I tried playing it loud on good speakers and it sounds like crap. I guess this is more of a headphones album, but still.
