The Last Dinner Party - they remind me of Kate Bush mashed w Marina and the Diamonds, but indie rock

Have not been on here in ages. Any kind soul want to update me on any new info we have for LDR10? ❤️

For some reason i cannot "like" posts due to an apparent connection problem. I am embarrassed to ask, but what are the tropico sessions? What songs do i not know about?

I listened to all of Paradise (album) today, so that. But also I feel that album does not get enough love for how glamorous, cinematic, and poetic it is. I want more old poetry references/inspiration.

Me too 🥺

Just came here to say n boast 🤭 that I lined up at urban outfitters when the OG of this vinyl was released, and it is my most treasured possession

I don't know if writing can be 'cinematic', but production wise cinematic would (in my opinion) be heavy orchestra/ build up and drops in general. Born To Die is cinematic with instrumentals, that violin in Ride, Yonge and Beautiful, a lot of her earlier material I would consider more cinematic, as she currently leans more into piano/acoustic/voice driven songs. Her writing has changed in that it is more diaristic, more wordy, and more in her present thought. It leans heavier on meaning rather than quick hooks or "bops" production wise. Tbh she has been world building and changing since 2012. You cannot speak about music in 2012 without referencing Lanas impact. She paved the way for a lot of artists to speak vulnerably about there feelings while seeming "unfeminist". When she came about, it was in a climate of "strong females" like Adele, Lorde, and Florence. And in comparison, the media wiped the floor with her for being so vulnerable and "unfeminist" for purely writing songs about her life experiences/ being weak without her man/ being emotionally and physically abused. And 10 years later they call her a visionary. My opinion is that the media was actually unfeminist in trying to silence her by reducing her to glamorizing her pain.

Ok but American Horror Story, they also do a depiction of the back dalhia?? Any crime series ever dramatizing and profitong off of famous murders??????

I love this! Jon batiste interlude reminds me of my fave t Beatles album, Let it Be. Cause they have comments/words at the beginning and end of songs, which is maybe the beginning of the concept of an interlude - which makes u feel like u are sharing the moment with them, and their inside jokes, present with them.

I'd love a full album of collabs w FJM. like this is who her country albu should be with

Didn't mike dean say they produced a whole bunch of songs together?

Audio Technica!! They aren't cute like ones at Urban Outfitters, but in my opinion they are the best quality. Also any of their headphones

I love how obsessed Pitchfork is w this album

Exactly! Even with the criticisms of her romanticizing domestic abuse. Literally ever episode of any crime drama ever. People just chronically online looking for something to write about.

The way this solidifies that Lana is the artist that everyone's favourite artist listens to and is inspired by

I actually love this reference. And in Violets for roses about masks off. And when she references vaping. Mom is documenting history. When she is studied in like 100 years, it will be like me when i was in English university classes trying to understand concepts of different periods

It makes me wonder if she is still close with his wife emma! (I also find myself wondering if she is still close with Stella or Jamie King -random i know)

Yes! I hear the similarities between Let the light in and tomorrow never came, but i just think FJM is more charismatic and thats what made Let the light in better. I also feel there are so many similarities between this album and FJM's writing tyle in general. And im loving it as a huge FMJ fan myself!

Oh for sure! I just know, personally, that when that one person you have been forever trying to impress and "earn" their love (toxically), and then they make room for you and make u their priority, you will do anything to make them apart of your life

I can appreciate this! I may be dragging my own daddy issues story into my feelings.. lol

This is super assuming and asshole-ish of me to think, but does anyone else ever think that if lana didn't become as successful as she has, Rob may not be as present in her life? Like i know i know nothing. But it just seems to me he has become more present in her life as her success has grown... This is all purely based on the media i see. Dont come for me

Venice bitch vs Ride

I'm in love with how complex this album is. I feel like with every listen i digest it more. There are more songs i like than others, but I feel it's an album u have to listen to all the way through to understand it. I don't mind it's wordy-ness, bc I love hearing her speak. I also adore that it's very particular to her fans. Like if u don't know Lana's story and own every album, you won't understand this album or its references. My stand out songs are: The Grants Ocean blvd A&W Juda Interlude Candy Necklace Jon Batiste Interlude Fingertips Grandfather pls Let the Light in Fishtail Peppers This album makes me feel sad, like a bad bitch, and like im there in the room present with them - hanging out like we're friends. With this album, I feel like it's a new genre from what she was doing; although it's poetic and wordy, the production is super cinematic. I love the combo of her poetry with the cinematic production. It's almost as if she is singing to us on the set of a musical that only contains soliloquies. With this album and how its been composed, my reflection on COCC and BB is that they were sister albums, and none of the songs on Ocean blvd are anything like that. She says she doesn't have a vision for where she is going, but me thinks she does know, and it was very clear with this . Also fishtail gives me lykke li vibes

I love both parts, but definitely the first part is a 90s grung MOOD
