ShadesOfFool

shes gonna shit a brick when she hears this

i still barely know what a chemtrail is so at this point i don't have much to speculate on

with her, she always made whatever vibe she was channeling to look pretty natural. like, not forced. but with chuck and especially charlie its like they're always in "lana del rey cosplay" like babe you can put the cigarette out we already know you're related lol

King Krule??? Now that’s a name I haven’t heard in years

wait what are you implying? she was groomed?

I think her siblings are kind of cringey and try too hard to fit in with her whole aesthetic.

It’s okay, Nicki Minaj’s studio is in her backyard anyway so her and Lana’s collab will still happen ☝️

honeymoon confuses me. all her other albums have a discernable "storyline" if you want to call it that, or they paint a picture of a specific time in her life. first disclaimer is that idk what was going on in her life at this time. i know she broke up with barrie and was dating that francesco guy, but idk really what was going on there. so admitting the fact that idk what her personal life was much like at this time, this is how i view honeymoon. ACT I: sex, drugs, and rock n roll -Music to Watch Boys To -High By the Beach -Freak -Art Deco -Religion -Salvatore This is the surface layer. She's got boys, she's got drugs, and she's got California. From the outside, that looks pretty nice tbh (at least to me). ACT 2: everything is not what it seems -Honeymoon -24 This starts to pull the curtain back. Beyond the sex and the drugs, she's clearly involved in something toxic (I'm guessing her relationship with the hot italian guy?). She likens him to a spy or a killer, and a rich, globetrotting photographer to the stars could understandably give her that impression. She wants more from him (the Freak demo is her asking her lover to marry her) than he's able to give, cause he's got baggage of his own. ACT 3: she's so fucking sad -Terrence Loves You -God Knows I Tried -The Blackest Day -Swan Song -Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood This is the reality of her life at this time. She feels lost, lonely, and worthless. In God Knows I Tried she straight up says she has nothing to live for. She dreams of just running away and fading into anonymity. All she wants is someone to understand her. So thats my personal reading of Honeymoon: she's distracting a profound sadness and emptiness with men, drugs, and parties. Ultraviolence is kind of her at her lowest, emotionally. And then Honeymoon is her kind of dwelling in that dark place, and showing us how she copes with it. "filling the hole" (heh) with drugs and fun and hot italian guys is what i assume she was doing at this time. am i totally wrong?

if we had to guess the vibes of this album in terms of her past work, i'd say When The World Was At War, The Greatest, Hope is A Dangerous Thing, and maybe Get Free

she really is a total weirdo omg, thats my girl

yes.

ok but i do have insider tea that the intro on the album is called "stop calling me mom you twinks", its confirmed

Yeah her live performances since like 2018 are really really not remarkable at all

Lana films stuff early, like, really early. And doesn’t tell anyone she’s doing it. For all we know she’s got entire music videos already locked and loaded. Not saying I think she does at this point but

She always says an album is going to sound one way and then it doesn’t, so who knows. Honeymoon was supposed to be beachy noir, and it really wasn’t. L4L was supposed to be witchy, then it was supposed to be 60’s girl group, then it was neither. NFR was supposed to be laid back, chili peppers sounding, then it wasn’t. So we never really know what we’re getting until it actually comes out with her.

this is my dream, but I just don’t see her putting that much thought/effort into it these days. Maybe she’ll surprise us tho. She’s gotta put out a single IMO. A surprise drop isn’t gonna work out well for her. She’s no beyonce, I know she doesn’t care about sales but she does care about not being embarrassed. Get that poetry book out of the way, then single time mid August at the latest. And a good single that people will wanna listen to more than once.

the hell is this

this thread is so gross

i want l4l part 2 idc idc idc

lust for life is a dreamy masterpiece, you guys are on CRACK omg its like you're on a cloud with a blunt in one hand and a glass of sangria in the other, overlooking LA

zero likes omg

BTD, UV, and L4L are the elite. If Chemtrails is reminiscent of any of those, it’ll be another instant classique.

Already this album sounds more dramatic in tone, apocalyptic and romantic at the same time. NFR was very pensive and reflective, hopefully Chemtrails brings the drama back. Death from above, being in love, being hated in the industry...hopefully she has some cool things to say again.

nfr played it very safe. which is fine. she's prob tired of being called a suicidal cokehead whore every time she blinks. i cant blame her for that. for chemtrails, i just want some instrumentation back. some production. nfr was stripped back in every sense, and it was nice for what it was. but i want to hear that Big Lana Del Rey Sound™ again. lust for life was a lot more thoughtful and less gloomy, as well, but those songs are still enjoyable to listen to. there's still replay value there. nfr is a chore to sit through (in my opinion). only a couple songs actually stayed in the playlist.
