  1. Yeah we've been having this same conversation over and over and over and over and over and over again and it's true. It you miss her old stuff, then go ahead and listen to it–– it's all on streaming. And we just had a 5-song leak full of "new" old songs. And we'll continue to receive old outtakes. Go listen to those. They exist.
  2. What drew me to Lana at the very very very beginning (BTD era) was her lower register. So i turn into a puddle whenever she uses that. Candy necklace has me in a chokehold
  3. Kintsugi is the grower for me- daddy, i miss them.... i'm at the roadrunner cafe... jesus christ
  4. I trust Nepo Dad more than I trust myself. She is touring.
  5. i don't know to be honest i really feel like that's the most "lana" any of her albums can get- #2 for me. ride and yayo are like... beyond iconic
  6. ppl probably think i'm whack Ultraviolence Born To Die & Paradise NFR Chemtrails Ocean Blvd AKA Lust For Life Honeymoon Blue Banisters
  7. Fantano review i assume drops either today or tomorrow A&W and Candy Necklace are so dark and dreamy. Two best songs on the album imo. Let the Light in is growing on me to be one of the better tracks. Peppers is iconic
  8. I believe she said in the BBC interview she's ending the set(s) with the Grants
  9. Do we know who's talking before the VB ending of Taco Truck? "I had this dream where ..." etc.
  10. Are we being objective or personal? (Objective would be a different story...) Here's my personal ranking Ultraviolence Born To Die & Paradise NFR Ocean Chemtrails AKA Lust for Life Honeymoon Blue Banisters damn i never realized i don't return to honeymoon that often- i still love it tho????? (pls don't clown me for cominbing btd and paradise. those records become one in my heart)
  11. Does anyone else think some of these songs remind you of musical theatre? *this is not a bad thing lmao* Sweet sounds just like a character breaking out into a soliloquy. Arcadia has a similar vein. Didn't she say something about working on a musical?
  12. Taco Truck with the chemtrails melody and Sweet with the Roses Bloom For You melody.... iconic
  13. i think the record is brilliant. it feels confident and mature. i still need more time to sit with it but it just feels like someone who's been *in it.* in the game for a long time, seen it all, heard it all, internalized ideas that don't match up to her sense of self, but prevails by sheer talent and lyricism. stand out songs for me are A&W (still my favorite song she's put out in the last 4 years along with Mariners), Candy Necklace, Peppers, and Grandfather. also.... Candy Necklace met my expectations. my god. her vocals on that song, some of the best she's ever performed. the breathiness in the chorus... takes me to another world. and I love Peppers so much. Tommy Genesis's performance is so great and it's so carefree and silly to ride it into a Dick Dale song. I actually thought a lot of parts of the record were funny, especially Taco Truck x VB. ...but was VB necessary to end on? to me, it sort of felt forced, like a "hey, in case you don't like this album, remember venice bitch?" and I was hoping for a new vocal rendition of VB, not the same vocals with different beats. and it felt a little disconnected from the other parts of the album. it's not what i was expecting for a closer. my biggest issue with the album is wordiness. she seems to get lost in much of what she's saying and almost loses control of the melodies in songs like kintsugi and fingertips. also margaret was a total wash to me. i just really don't need to hear a mediocre jack antonoff performance right after an incredible father john misty one. overall, the reason NFR still stands up as a better record in my opinion is because it just felt more refined. there are elements of this album that feel lost, but the direction she takes us towards the end seems like she's in a pretty happy place, and i think we can tell by the interviews she's giving lately etc. that she just seems so carefree. anyways i give it a 7.8/10
  14. I'm also a sound first lyrics second girl but the past 3 records she's been really asking us to interrogate her words
