This I can agree with though...I wish Lana would stop inserting other people like that when all we want to see is her.

well another mv that i will never watch again

actually what I heard was that Lana was so disgusted by Nikki’s nasally Miley Cyrus-sounding voice that she said (word for word) “fuck this nasty ass bitch we ain’t giving her credits on this song” because at that time the physicals had already been pressed and it was too late! 

she did that.

Nikki Lane - I wonder why she’s not credited on Spotify though

Just ordered an embarrassing amount of stuff, but I also tried to keep in mind my past purchases I've already made from this era, so I tried to pick and choose rather than just snapping up everything I wanted. Still spent $390 with shipping (which honestly should have been free given the amount I ordered, but also won't complain about $12 priority shipping for all that shit) and now I'm contemplating my never-ending debt

Because white male mediocrity runs the world

Why does every critical review feel they need to preface discussion of the album with huge paragraphs about her early career? Why can't people separate the artist from the art. 

In 2011 ?, she ? emerged ? as an aesthetic ✨? howitzer ?, exploding ?? a broad ?? but ? deeply ? personal ? index ☝ of iconography ? into her ?? own nation ?? of death-driven ☠️? kitsch. It was Xanadu ?, built ?‍♀️ from a blissful, degenerate ?, high-femme ?‍♀️ sort ? of jingoism. ???

why can't she just write about love & romance, while also being melancholy and vulnerable without being scruntinized? there's nothing wrong with writing about love and being vulnerable in your art...  i just find it really silly, i don't see why it's unusual...

I hope that the pic disc is also available on her regular  store ‘cause I’m imagining that the shipping will be more expensive on this 

Yes, it had the Neil Target/HMV exclusive cover! It had a picture before but this is all that's showing in the confirmation e-mail now
 

so I have no idea if they'll cancel this order, or... but either way it should be up on the store soon?

This was the link but it's down now

I honestly hate the Pitchfork review even if I don't mind the score. It's so fucking pretentious in the way it's written it makes me choke, lol. The faux-intellect is, like, dripping. Sylvia..............

There’s a passage in it where I swear every word was plucked from thesaurus.com it made me SCREAM

Yes I love the way breaking up slowly sounds like Summer Bummer (feat. A$AP Rocky & Playboi Carti)!

SALVATORE'S UPDATED THOUGHTS ON YOSEMITE
yosemite- i lied above. i listened to the entire record with the incense and the breeze but yosemite i saved, i saved until the dead of night, and drove to an observatory be alone in my car outlooking the silent city sparkling on cliffside, engulfed in pines and hibernating wildflowers and i played yosemite on repeat for 45 or so minutes staring silently into the dead. this song is everything i've ever wanted. it's what kept me alive in a year i tried my best not to be and i built a fun following around it, i emailed interviewers, writers, tried to find photographers and collected every bit of information of the song i could. bought magazines that referenced yosemite, i did an entire paper around Yosemite by John Muir. I have two shirts from the 70s referencing yosemite, i've stumbled upon bottle openers from the park out in the roads where i'd walk alone at night hoping i'd be at the wrong end of a desperate persons violence for no reason other than trying to find feeling, yosemite is a lot to me and when we didn't get it in LfL i was heartbroken and decided to crave it more than ever before
 
upon her interview of MAC/VB i knew Architecture was the theme of Norman. Even though the song said to not start the new record i felt she wouldn't give up the past title track of Lust for Life that easy, or at least her muse wouldn't. The description of norman as a cocky artist with an ego that needed settling, the rejected scraps of White Mustang's music video, it all felt too coincidental and i called it that Architecture would have inspired, or be on the album (i was right), following i felt Yosemite would come to fruition here, having Lust for Life be this disjointed parent record of Norman Fucking Rockwell, i figured it'd stay similar for 'White Hot Forever'; the attempts at social commentary, the deliverance into an acoustic side to her discography, they'd be messily glued on Lust for Life and then refound in their own spaces, and now they have been. and Yosemite is the song of Chemtrails.
 
The music itself is everything i had hoped, it was brooding, optimistic, enchanting, emotional and methodical. Her rescinding the song out of vocal vulnerability in the same breath she killed malibu out of fear of transparency found a funny way into an album full of airy and broken vocals. White Dress being a thread laced through Wild at Heart in the way it is through Yosemite through Dark through For Free. The a capella she sung in 2017 obviously didn't do it justice and how anyone thought it could was laughable and that is their own fault. Her voice here is gorgeous, the song writing is beautiful, the atmosphere created in this song is so . fucking. beautiful. I knew this song was my favorite she's ever made before hearing it and I've heard it and it's still the best song she's ever created. The bridge is like a god speaking through the sky in thundering tongues and lightning flares. The imagery i suspected years ago of desert-y folk songs you'd look out over the desert and see an impending storm rings true, this is the calm inside a storm, it's an ignorant and threatened peace. i see nothing but rainless storms and sharp winds light by the invincible glow of candlelight. Yosemite is immaculate, a highlight, and a mission statement for the record. It couldn't be without Chemtrails and Chemtrails couldn't be without Yosemite. 
 
She wasn't quite at yosemite in 2017, and being able to confidently proclaim enough that she could put a song about doing things for free on a record bookended with a memoir about making art for free, and a collaborative homage to a song about lovingly observing others making art for free is quite powerful. Her never mentioning Yosemite in the lyrics is powerful
 
Yosemite being the only 1-word song on this album is powerful. 
She's so powerful, and so very realized

The person who cut the tracks had one job ... cannot believe the NAWWAL/Yosemite thing
 

Nikki Lane - I wonder why she’s not credited on Spotify though 

You can hear her smiling when she sings “Court almost burned down my home”

Not Pitchflop taking into consideration her controversies to make a review... it's BTD and UV all over again.
 
Anyway! Wild At Heart had the HTD production which was a distraction at first, but THEN I just realized that the song took the production of HTD and did what it couldn't (it did that). It's a grower and now that it grew on me I definitely think it's one of the best tracks here. 

I can definitely hear Portishead in Dark But Just A Game; Mojo was right

help does Yosemite sound weird on Spotify to anyone? Like the intro is cut off HELPPP

Pre-Pre-Release Threads are typically created once there's an indication than an album is in the works! According to her recent MusicWeek interview, there's one (maybe even two) in the works! Usually this doesn't happen so quickly (except for NFR) but because there is indication and another Pre-Pre-Release thread was highly requested, it will arrive in an hour or two so everyone can have fun in this thread for awhile. Pre-Release Threads come once there's a confirmed title or release date, which could be awhile.
& I can't wait to show you all the new theme! There's a few things I need to adjust and I'm waiting on my design partners to wake up to help me skkkk. But I think you guys will really love it! I'm already using it on my account and.. it's so pretty
