THE EXPERIENCE!!! I cannot believe I cried. She found some way to make poems she wrote from recent to two years ago be so relatable to the point of voyeurism. Sportcruiser did it for me but they were all so unique. Jack was essential to this project. Tessa Dipietro is so funny, and SALAMANDER!!! UGHHH I knew I had a reason to suspect it, its one of the tops. Land of 1000 Fires is witchiness in a bottle and its a beauty, My Bedroom was so artful. I could keep going but I also want to read everyone's reactions so that's what I'm gonna do. This was BREATH TAKING

Ooof a mess but honestly its like standard now haha. To those listening (legally) YES to your reactions! Myself, I'll be waiting till 12 here in Pennsylvania and if its not there I'm hitting a river in the morning anyway. I think people underestimated what this was going to be, and im thrilled watching the heads roll.

Damn, my Venice Bitch rant was inspired by some serious greenery but I said what I said and that's that on that. But Greatest and HiaB come back to me very frequently. Bartender is my ride home song, and NFR plays about everyday. But Venice, its her. Also yes Lana's current status is sort of crazy. She has the number one trending video and most discussed act between 3 superstars meanwhile this album is just cruising proving her worth to doubters. It didn't need to do that but it did -

Will this post be top of page 200?? Who knows...but what I do know is that Venice Bitch is best on the album and we need to continue this debate. My god the instrumentation, the journey it takes you on, the memories you havent lived yet displaying on the dashboard as you cruise. The lyrics, the lived in feeling she personifies, as though she truly knows this kind of song needed to be made for those who need it. Epic. Beautiful. Venice bitch. Who's runner up or tied? <keep in mind I adore this masterpiece> The Greatest gets runner up -

Listened to it twice so far, you can tell Lana knew she was about to ride a high cus shes having a blast and steals the song. Girl knew her album would be busy having a moment -

I mean I legit understand the point, but The Greatest and Venice Bitch are both on this album, and bartender sneaks in the back soooooo. LFL had 13 Beaches, Get Free, Love, and Tomorrow Never came (get off me) as my jams but NFR is like this consistent step up to so many things she has done -

I love how The Greatest is the greatest "shut down anything" song. Bar closing? Greatest. End of a relationship? Greatest. World ending? The Greatest -

Yup yup yup. The album ends with HiaB many times for me. Hope is that gut punch, and the trio of Bartender to HiaB to Hope is really rough, an extremely sad slide inward. Still love it, its just... alot -

Driving home from work and exited the car just as HTD was starting. Damn if I didnt walk in and play it through. Bells still throw me, but I imagine her own reaction to hearing them and smiling so they can stay. HTD, the underdog of the whole album Also props to the queen of stable sales and great numbers. -

I agree, glad she stood ground, as I agreed with the critics sentiment that its Lana's job to defend her art (at least how I interpreted it) so everyone chill, shes not bullying. However if she wants to drop a video to distract everyone then by all means... -

Yup. Vibing to Melanie (getting used to it, some great songs on there) and Grimes' Violence is such an anger sway bop, but NFR calls me each time after awhile. Its...hard to describe as I'm sure you've all experienced. Like Frankenstein's monster to a violin, I always return to the sound of peace. -
You guys are so cute Stuck at work so I couldnt partake but you guys make me smile. What a queen

Facebook comments on pitchforks score on their page has me rolling. The lack of taste, lack of support. Our girl is definitely still an underdog, still ours to support fiercely
