do i look like i know 

I just got this email as well! I'm so excited to see what it is 
 

Just curious why they're using old pictures of Lana for the Blue Banisters merch.

I placed an order on Thursday a few hours after the drop and just today I got this: 
BLUE BANISTERS
FREE GIFT CONFIRMATION
Hi There! 
Your Order has been included in the Blue Banisters free gift promotion! Thank you so much for your support! Keep an eye out for your tracking email !
 
I'm honestly kind of surprised, since I didn't order immediately haha but keep an eye out for one of these emails to know if you got the free gift!

13 Beaches was a sample?!

am i wrong for telling off someone on mercari for buying 4 signed art cards and then selling them all for $75-$100?? i almost feel bad but i blocked him immediately after so…

Signed CD’s from the US store are starting to arrive!

Okay i know it's really mean & too early to think about LDR9 right now after we just got Blue Banisters. But sorry, i can't help the thirst  Here's a "LDR9" album rollout in my tiny head:
LDR9 title will be: LIZ, I'M CALLING FROM CALIFORNIA
Genres: Psychedelic, indietronica, Alt Rock, chamber pop artpop, dreampop, ofc (a sweet "piano flop" to spite y'all ballad haterz)
Style: An ethereal Witch Rock Album (I'm thinking of Which Witch - Florence + The Machine kind of vibes) mixed with experimental electronic-elements, serving for random drunk screaming/ camp style.
Produced by: herself, Mike Dean
Track 5 - Lemonade has some excerpts/sample contents from old demo "Dance for Money". This will be her 2022 stripper anthem (it will make the preceeders like Brite Lites, Cherry etc. proud). It marks the first time in 5 years since she made her last stripper song. (L4L era).
Track 13: "To Clementine" is a continuation of "Fine China" - The song is a love letter to her future daughter Clementine - "baby, your daddy might be an asshole but im never gonna leave u. I will always protect you in my arms" - The song sets in "Fine China" universe's storyline.
This album is a sister to Lust for Life, but this time, it's not a celebration for her fans, rather than the celebration for herself. The album is a nod to young/innocent Lizzy Grant (yes, she will spill more tea about her past in this album) & how that make her the person she is today, more self-reflecting songs (just like WW in Blue Banisters), more fuck-you media songs (especially annoying-ass twitter stan culture), and how she been through shit to be able to love and appreciate/believe in herself & her art (as she should, she is Lana Fucking Del Rey) & more contemplating songs like in Lust for Life where she shares her thoughts about life, politics, society prejudice towards a woman/a woman in the industry, and although the album isn't an ode to her fans like Lust for Life was, it still has 2 songs as 2 love letters dedicated to her fans - Roses Bloom For You (altered lyrics) & At Peace, At Last.

i don’t get why they just didn’t wait with sending the cds until they get the cards… because then they’ll send the cards in that thin worthless packaging and it’ll probably arrive all creased and bent 

Hello you, welcome to LanaBoards! 
 
I'm the local 'NFR!' hater (I mean not really, but kinda) 

I’m not SUPER active on here all the time, but when did everyone start to hate NFR? Last I checked, it was the general consensus (from like everyone in the world) that it was her greatest album? Did that change now that BB is out (well, now that weve heard it)

Hating on popular things is a personality trait, they're not like the other girls 

Violets for Roses is stuck in my head all day long since I head it. This is not my fave thing from BB, but it really works on me.
 
Blue Banisters isn't her best album imo. All the previous albums are concept albums but here it's less clear, less interesting for me. It's a cute and pretty album, but that's all for me for now. I think it will grow on me later.

My favorite Lana album  It just means so much to me

my signed cd arrived today; without the signed card of course
 
i think it’s so unprofessional of bravado to not send an email about the issue or a note in the package or something
instead we get not a fucking word about it

I went to Target yesterday and bought the exclusive CD while I wait for the vinyls, but I noticed many of them were broken/cracked . I literally had to go through 10 or so copies before finding a decent one. Then when I went to open it in my car, that little piece of plastic that keeps the booklet in place fell off  I bought a few copies so it doesn't really matter, but I hope this isn't happening in many stores. I'm glad I have it even if it broke; it looks even more gorgeous in person! I had to go to 2 different stores and my social anxiety was through the roof because I had to talk to a few workers at each store, but we made it through besties !! It was well worth it when I got to drive back home blasting Dealer  

I have a feeling with each album she’s gonna promote and try less and less, like LDR11 you will find the album in a paper envelope at the library  for 1 dollar…and nobody will know about it because she’s been off social media for years and living in the back of a Volkswagen going from city to city. 

the way this is basically a pre-pre-pre release thread

Me changing my birth certificate to September

Btw did you see the last demographics on the Lana subreddit? Most of the users there are young, straight, atheist males
