I never get that cohesiveness thing. Sometimes it’s better when an album is messy and all over the place than staying cohesive because it can get boring imo
Among those early reviews the majority is positive so that’s a good sign, but we need more rave reviews with different scoring because so far we’re slightly below 80/100
On a positive note, NME calling it masterful still is a rather really thing, basically saying she’s consistent in being incredible.
Most artists get trashed from playing it safe, but Lana definitely does otherwise, since the composition of the album is rather risky
The top 5 from the album to me are (in alphabetical order):
American Whore
Candy Necklace (or Fingertips, I can't decide yet)
Grandfather
Peppers
Taco Truck x VB
