they’re fanmade a&w lyrics that somebody random came up with and uploaded earlier this week💀

exactly — the beat is harsh, it trips over itself, and it feels purposeful, especially with the screaming part. it’s like being trapped in a nightmare kinda reminds me of climax (horror movie) 😭 especially because of the way the song is split into two parts and how the second part devolves into insanity

i hear maimed but i assume it’s ambiguous purposefully

does she say “surf’s up!” around 6:34 because i’m obsessed with that

WAIT I THINK I HEAR THAT... like the beginning of tropico because yes

the second half of A&W has so many callbacks... the beat reminds me of the BTD title track beat... the man sound thing reminds me of BTD... the strings that reminds me of NFR title track and BTD title track, the baby voice, jimmy, the overall channeling of 2010-2012 energy, it's like she's taking that version of herself and twisting it on its head, iconic!

one of her best albums lyrically is coming... I SAY I LIVE IN ROSEMEAD REALLY I'M AT THE RAMADA IT DOESN'T REALLY MATTER DOESN'T REALLY REALLY MATTER

into every generation a slayer is born... one girl in all the world, a chosen one... she alone will wield the strength and skill to release some of the most iconic music the world has ever heard .. LANA IS THE SLAYER

she's in her conversational lyrics era hence the mumbling it's like she's reading from her diary whispering in our ears! and i for one am obsessed

i hope the production is intricate ... it's looking good so far because ocean blvd is beautiful so i'm getting ready for more

her mojo magazine story was officially their april issue, but it was actually released in the beginning of february iirc! i think your point still stands, this feels like an era so i think it'll be all about ocean blvd (or at least somewhat related) especially if they're preparing for it now ... maybe we'll even get the interview/photos prior to april

babe wake up new neil krug insta story ocean photo dropped

but they aren't her sweater is just colored the same green

this is exactly why it'll be the 14th... ben and ed said let's stack all releases of artists related to tap on the 14th for literally no reason

BEST VINYL VARIANT POLL ANSWER NOW.

peppers is going to be so 2009 lizzy laptop demo singing on top of a random beat slightly off with random crinkling noises and harmonization (see: party girl) and i’m going to love it

valentine’s day? i only know the day of the sacred hymn a&w …

refreshing my spotify every night at midnight trying to see if maybe by some miracle a&w will show up ... WHERE IS IT!

just 5 hours until midnight everybody … there’s something in the wind if we manifest hard enough it’ll happen

watch it be released on the 14th anyways … after all this distress

i understand and am okay with her not wanting to do promotion but sometimes it feels really at odds with her desire to “tell her story her way” — doing things like making music videos to complete the artistic vision and doing interviews to share her thoughts would really help with that. she’s had her words twisted in interviews before so releasing audio commentary like with UV or even just posting instagram captions/holding livestreams would be a great way for her to express how she feels about her work and the ideas and intentions behind it … i miss being able to see into the window of her mind while she was making the album, the W magazine was great for that, and i really hope there are good interviews in the upcoming articles!! ocean blvd seems so special and being able to read about her/her mindset in this moment is such a special thing that really enriches the album for me

it feels like a reference to boudoir photography and old hollywood! very classic referential lana it's also interesting thematically to think about, since boudoir photos are often taken to be looked at by others, it's very intentionally voyeuristic, which makes me really think about the meaning of the visuals... it also reminds me a lot of her maxim photoshoot in 2015 with neil as well, which referenced boudoir/actress photos – anyways i'll stop with the needlessly long posts now! but the themes of sexuality voyeurism and fame definitely come through in the photoshoot and i think the onlyfans post could definitely have been a tease (intentional or not)

i don't think ben and ed are psychopaths? they might be stupid for not expecting us to be doing the most but... we honestly don't know if they're MAD, they just decided to change it. this may seem messy but i'm sure many music releases are equally as messy behind the scenes
