sorry i keep gushing about this album but i really wasn't expecting to love it so much.
god there is so much beautiful softness and sensuality on this record. it feels like the perfect album for a rainy morning, or a sleepless night, or a cool desert afternoon. it sort of feels like she's moving in a different direction here than she was with her past 6 albums. norman felt like the culmination of everything she'd been trying to perfect since AKA. this feels different. where those albums all felt like she was journaling and perfecting her writing game, this album feels like she's more focused on musicality, melody, vocals, and sonics. even though i would describe this as her most skeletal album yet when it comes to the instrumentals, the softness of it all is what sets it apart. while honeymoon is soft, too, it was still backed by huge orchestras and light slowed trap beats. this album goes all the way soft, with mostly just guitars pianos, and live drums (with few exceptions), and i think that's what makes it work for me. i also finally feel like there's no longer a desire for me to compare her works with one another; they're all so different.

the second verse of DBJAG is so sad and dark.
I was a pretty little thing
and God, I loved to sing
but nothing came from either one but pain
but, fuck it.

i can't stop listening to white dress. i think it's genuinely my favorite Lana song. I've never felt more personally connected to a song before. sure, its a very specific song lyrically. (particularly the orlando and men in music business conference lyrics) but it's so funny that she released it while I'm also 19, trying to find myself, living for the little moments where i feel invincible, no matter how sparse. ugh, I've been so sick these past few days and haven't gotten any better. this album has helped me bare through the pain, though. it's definitely not my favorite of her albums (norman, honeymoon, and ultra will always be my holy trinity) but it's definitely top 4. it's such a good springtime album.

had anyone brought any attention to the lyrical parallels between hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have - but i have it and white dress?
I've been tearing up town in my fucking white gown
When I was a waitress, wearing a white dress / Look how I do this, look how I got this
Serving up God in a burnt coffee pot for the triad
It made me feel, it made me feel like a God
I was reading Slim Aarons when I got to thinkin', that I thought
Sun stare, don't care with my head in my hands / Thinking of a simpler time
Maybe I'd get less stressed if I was tested less like all of these debutantes
Kind of makes me feel, like maybe I was better off

they're definitely not being used as a trend. they were using masks so that no one on the set got covid lol.

update: haven't felt better yet :/ don't know if i should wait till i feel better or just listen anyway just to be a part of the release with everyone. this pre-release has been so long but felt so short and i don't want it to end ?

3 hours ago, Yosemite said:So I had this idea of making a kind of an album trailer, that will have the whole album in it. However, to do that, I need y'all help bc I need some movies to go along w/ the tracks, so could you reply to me saying which movies go along w/ each song? Can be more than one movie per track, can be classic movies, or not, known or unknown, I just need ideas. Gonna try posting it on the album's release day.
Also, this is the exact same concept I'm going for:
as someone who hasn't heard the album yet, here are some movies that give me the vibe of what i think the album will sound like:
Persona (1966)
Suspiria (2018)
Lost Highway (1998)
Hiroshima Mon Amour (1959)
Belle De Jour (1967)
Eyes Without A Face (1960)
The Others (2001)
Don't Look Now (1973)
and for the title track, The Discreet Charm Of The Bourgeoisie (1972)

Breaking Up Slowly
Let Me Love You Like A Woman - Not a bad song by any means, though i thought that on initial listens, but it has grown a lot on me now that the entire record is out. There's not really a bad or even misplaced song on this album, its kind of her most "perfect" and concise tracklist as there's no filler, where i feel that all her other albums have at least one filler song, even Honeymoon.
