    Do we really need a rundown of every makeup look, every outfit you think she suited better, every hairstyle she did in her twenties you think she pulled off better every time we see a new picture of her? You really expect her to roll up shopping after months of quarentine looking like she's going to an award show?

    a lot of you gay men that have literally zero understanding of makeup and lashes have a lot to say on this woman’s appearance.
     
    again, gay men say some of the most misogynistic people i’ve ever seen. do you guys stop to think about what your saying about this woman’s appearance before you post? jesus christ. and you damn well know her and her management see this forum.

    Or perhaps she just aged, it happens more than you think

    I didn't want to go off track but since you insist on being so inflammatory and snarky to other users for no reason... @electra
     
    Not sure why you have this superiority complex over something so asinine. I can only assume it's because the song has now leaked and is in the public domain therefore you feel less exclusive so you want to now assert some kind of dominance over fans hearing it for the first time (see: your incessant references in both threads to having it "a while back" "a month ago" etc.)
     
    Unpleasant and odd behaviour.
     
    Also you realise the post you quoted by WilshireBoulevard was calling you wrong?

    Are we all going to ignore that Toby Mcguire is in the second picture? What's up Lanz why is Peter Parker in your backyard? 
  6. Swan Song liked a post in a topic by West Coast in Why does NFR! sound not as 'loud' as her previous records?   
    But for real, I'm by no means a sound engineer. I think I'm just an audiophile.
     
    But, to me there's something kinda flat or muffled, and quite frankly, iffy about the overall sound quality of this album, like the record quality or mastering process gave this album this kind of flat/dry type of sound? I don't mean to beat a dead horse as I've made my point on several occasions in the pre and post release threads and even in the White Hot Forever/LDR7 thread, but I'm just not a fan of this type of sound. It's just kind of muffled and for a lack of a better word "cheap". I also think that for the most part the album cruelly lacks bass or beat to complement or create depth in sound, I don't know. It's very "off the shelf" there's not the same attention to detail sonically speaking. By all means, it's an alright album, but there's something just so beige, basic and/or simple about it, especially the production. Sorry, not sorry.
     
    I feel like with her past records, especially the first three, there was a sense of intensity and grandeur in the sound? 'Born To Die' and 'Paradise' had that crisp/clear type of sound on each tracks, some say it's overproduced, and I could agree to that to a certain extent, but it just sounded like a really slick and clean pop record.
     
    'Ultraviolence' was very atmospheric, I am a fan of the raw type of sound, I feel like the instrumentation on the album is intricate, intense and superb. I love that, and this is according to both Dan and Lana, the songs were recorded with a live band. Someone said in the LDR7 thread recently that it's once-in-a-lifetime record and I very much agree with that.
     
    'Honeymoon' has got to be her most lush album as far as production goes. There's something just really beautiful and balanced, yet again intricate, about the way the album sounds, it's like the perfect mix of a classical/movie score type of sound and modern trap beats? It's just very beautiful, lush, elegant and cinematic.
     
    I won't really get into how I feel about 'Lust for Life' as I think that the album is just kind of all over the place artistically speaking, but for the most part even the songs I don't like I think as far as audio goes, they sound good. But I was not a fan of how the trap beats were just overused here, kinda cheapened the whole experience. There are highs and lows on the album, but the songs I really like on there, they sound great.
     
    So yeah, and this is very personal, I'm just not a fan of the so called 'NFR' sound.

    that and the fact that she pretty much butchered the lyrics and flow of the song as well, her vocals on the chorus were not flattering at all, and she sounds so angry, unlike the unreleased version where her vocals sounded calm, pretty and sullen

    The only reason why I’d say I hold LA to the Moon to my heart more than those shows is cause I scored a front dead center spot right beside the steps and she came down to me first at the end of the show... I gave her a piece of paper that had the tweet of my phone number she favorited and never called from the “call you manana” tweets after the LFL preorders lmao... I wrote “tomorrow never came” with it and a smiley face and she laughed and signed my UV UO vinyl personally with my name right over the knee.... honestly a priceless moment ill never forget till I die :’)
     
     
    Also I caught the set of (fake) pearls she threw off the stage during WTWWAWWKD and they’ve been sitting beautifully in my ultraviolence box set ever since

    “Maybe I needed a stronger look or something to lean on then,” she added. “But I feel like it wouldn’t be hard for me today to play a mega show in jeans without rehearsing and still feel like I was coming from the right place.”
     
    Fast forward to the 2018-2019 tour shows and this statement really resonates too.... unrehearsed reliance on backing vocal tracks dancing around for most songs :rip:
     
    If anyone doesn’t think Lana was putting on a “persona” in the early stages (2011-13/14) of her career just watch interviews chronologically and see how bubbly and fake and pitched up her speaking voice is the earlier you go back..
     
    Also I’m not posting this to hate on Lana in anyway or to be viewed as “attacking” I just think it’s odd how everyone automatically discounts anything Jared posts telling them to crawl back to their hole etc.

    No more Chuck Grant album covers
    Society has progressed past the need for Chuck Grant album covers
     
    We need a photographer who will actually release more than 2 images from the shoot!!!!!

    Fingers crossed the name is a satire, and she doesn't ACTUALLY believe in chemtrails.

    Just because Lana is not a professional pole dancer that doesn't mean people have the right to call her a whore. That's what she's talking about: they were both making art, but one was extremely criticized while the other was praised. I get that Lana and Twigs were using pole dancing in very different contexts of imagery, but they were both doing it as a prop to further their art. The same goes to her rant about music: when she sings "he hit me and it felt like a kiss" people go wild and call her problematic, but when Rihanna sings "it beats me black and blue but it fucks me so good" she gets acclaim and a top 10 hit. Why?

    what's funny to me is that the majority of "popular" insta stans (including the ones in that pathetic gc) have leaked stuff, talked shit abt lana, talking abt her private life, etc or were involved in it in any way but the second lana goes off at them they suddenly feel sad and attacked lmfao make it make sense

    also insta stans are unbearable, no wonder lana went off and unfollowed them

    i'm honestly worried for her mental state right now, when you look back at it her behaviour has been a bit weird since she cancelled the tour ghosted her entire fanbase for days and then did that weird mother's day tweet and now this entire mess that she's started yesterday... i feel like she's going through it.
     
    hope she'll logg off and gets into a better place because whatever is going on is not good at all.
